I think that's everything!!
hmmm.. I added the last (earliest!) stuff into the archive today, and I think I've pretty much done all the PC stuff, now. (URL "http://AGameAWeek.com/GameList.php?ShowJust=159"> ![]() Views 6, Upvotes 0

I've tried to come up with an interesting gameplay method, but nothing's immediately apparent.
I've still got a couple of ideas to try, but with only a day and a bit left to try it, it's not worth trying it now. So, what else? Well, I've not done a DS game for a while, let's try that. Views 1, Upvotes 0

Name : Thunderskull 4024 Idea : Sokoban-like game with hex-based grid. OK, first off, not really sure what all the loving of Hexagons is about, but the word Hex is in the suggestion bag about 20-odd times! Views 6, Upvotes 0

And so another week trundles by.
I had hoped to finish off the ever elusive games, this week, (the RPG and the Patent Wars), but that doesn't appear to be happening at all. Oh well. If they happen, they happen. If not, carry on. Views 100, Upvotes 0

This week's Wednesday Workshop suggests we should make a Pacman game.
I've already done "Blockman Forever" this year, so I'm going to avoid retreading old ground. Instead I'm going the Puzzle route. Already I've got a lovely little set of graphics going, and am obviously reusing Blockman because.. .. well, why not!!! Views 5, Upvotes 0

Name : redmoth Idea : invent a new gambling/casino game A few years ago (2004!!) I created Kasino Green. It was supposed to sit alongside StringyThings (a nice collection of Word games), and be a similarly nice collection of Casino games. Views 13, Upvotes 0

I was thinking of doing some sort of fruit machine thing, but I didn't really have any kind of plan for it, so it didn't really get off the ground. Poor thing. Maybe this week for that? Views 5, Upvotes 0

I'm sat here at 11pm on Sunday night, trying to think of a game for Tuesday.
It's not happening.. I've spent all week long adding games to the archive. That's to say, I've spent all week playing all my old games, and having a whale of a time.. I guess that has a disadvantage, being that I haven't coded jack all, all week. Views 44, Upvotes 27

I managed to get the Archive up to 100 games.
Counting subgames it's all the way up to 126! woot! That's games from May 2006 up to now. Not a bad count, but certainly not AGameAWeek. Views 1, Upvotes 0

The big-ass catalogue is now up to 68 games, and I've reached a bit of a stumbling block.
If you search for (URL "http://AGameAWeek.com/GameList.php?Find=multiple+games">"multiple games"), you'll find a few games that have more than one internal game. Today I'm tweaking the engine so that it counts each of those seperately inside the nice ever growing total. I wasn't going to do that, at first, but then I came across Platdude's Retro Collection, and decided to do it. It'd be a shame ... Views 1, Upvotes 0

If you've been keeping track, you'll have probably noticed an ever increasing number in the folders of my games.
These are the weeks of the Wednesday Workshop, and as you trace through my games, you'll see a whole lot of matches between the WW and the game's basic idea. WW is fantastic for ideas, but sometimes things don't quite work out. Take this image, from a basic engine, all the way back in week #142.. (That's 76 weeks ago!)

Seems to be that a fair amount of suggestions are monkey based thoughts, so I figured why not make a new monkey collection?
If you've an idea for a new monkey game, shove it below or in the suggestion box, and we'll have a good fiddle around with them all. Gameplay wise, I'm thinking of perhaps creating a structure to a few games, release one a week and create a sort of evolving storyline that somehow manages to link the games together. At this point, I've no idea if that'll work. But he... Views 8, Upvotes 0

Many many years ago (about 20?!) I played a game called Painter on a mate's BBC Micro.
Haven't played the thing since, but what the hey, here's the "Done in a day" remake! I had intended to do a bigger project, and in fact that project is nearly done, but the lack of time made me postpone the larger project for a week, while it all gets done. So, quicky game this week.
