Closing In
Blog
23rd June 2018
Getting close to the finishing line.
Tomorrow I need to think up a name, add some sounds, do the screenshots and icons and whatnot, and then we're ready for compiling.
First, however, I might see if I can make the levels a "little" bit harder.
There are a number of rock-hard levels, but they're few and far between, and the game doesn't push you onwards as a result.
Not sure if I can get any more out of the Level Generator, but .. I'd like to!!
Suggestions for a game name are wel...

Puzzling Without Gfx
Blog
22nd June 2018
I left the level generator to build me a decent number of levels, for a while, and have now got the game engine to load the level in, and display it onscreen in a half-decent way.
The next step is to draw some proper gfx, and come up with a nice new character for the game. .. Or should I use Roland again?! Hmm..

Today : Artsy Jay
Blog
22nd June 2018
I need to come up with a nice concept for the art style of this week's game.
Hopefully I can easily manage to do bog-standard sprite recolouring on the actual "path" tiles, but I'll have to draw all the different angles and things, for the turns they could take .. Urgh..
At least they're only one-way paths, and won't do crossovers or anything like that. That would be extra complicated!

Puzzling

21st June 2018
Spent all day trying to work out a nice way to generate these kinds of puzzles, and I'm fairly certain that the current method works to within a decent standard.
The general gist will be that you need to walk out a path between the two similar coloured blobs, and that links them up.
A typical colour-path sort of thing.
As stated earlier, I've worked hard to get the level generator to come up with the most fiendish levels possible, but it also makes some nice simpler levels that can be used to...

Last month, I subscribed to the ZenPop Ramen selection.
The box appears, then over the coming weeks, I review each of the noodles.
Last month's collection can be found in this SoCoder Thread, but I figured it might be something entertaining to crosspost here, too.

Still Slow
Blog
21st June 2018
The repointers are nearly done with the larger side wall, and will be starting on the back wall either later today, or tomorrow.
The noise is still echoing through my head, and I'm still finding it extremely difficult to code.
But it's nearly over.
Unfortunately, game code is still coming along at a slow pace.

Today is day three of getting the house repointed, and it's really not helping my code-mood in the slightest.

Online Scoreboards
Blog
19th June 2018
Yesterday, as I watched the empty scoreboards once more, I decided it was probably about time I "switched them on" properly.

Two Games in Mind

A silly game title popped into my head, late last night, and I've been trying to figure out what sort of game it might be.

What Comes Next?
Blog
17th June 2018
Someone over on the GBATemp forums mentioned Centipong being one of their favourites of my DS Homebrew collection.
To be honest, I never did solve the "What Comes Next" issue with that.
