Rebuilding AGameAWeek, Nintendo 3DS Homebrew and a little helicopter!

My brew's nearly finished. Guess it's time to resurrect AGameAWeek !!

I hate waiting.. And now I'm waiting for 2 sets of people to do their Review thing.. TeamOUYA normally get around to things on a Monday, but with all the chaos going on over there, I'm expecting mid-week at the earliest. Meanwhile, PlayJam could take ages. Their reviews seem to be nice and fast, but the delay between Review and Release is somewhat erratic. My first PlayJam game took about a month from when it was "Passed" to when it became available on the system. But recent "...

And now we have to wait.. Waiting for both OUYA and PlayJam to review and release the Advent collection, at which point I also click the Publish button over at GameJolt, and set about uploading the game to my own archive, too! .. Which reminds me.. The Archive Still doesn't include PlayJam links, does it.. Hmm... Last night I spent a good few hours working on a newer version of my Monkey Skeleton Framework. It's about 50% rejigged, but I'm sure there's oodles more stuff I c...

There are now 26 games in the Beta Collexion. o/hurrayo/ Over the course of today, I'm going to be playing the games over and over and over, to check for bugs and ensure they're as nicely playable as they oughta be, and then it'll be time to upload it. I'll probably give it the weekend before doing all the uploading, giving me plenty of time to pick out any weird oddities along the way, but all should be good to go by then, so review time shouldn't be "too" long.. .. hopefully...

Yesterday I spent a good couple of hours recreating the classic Codemasters title "3D Starfighter" before realising "This game's shit!!" The game was abandoned where it was, but I've left the code in the Arcade Calendar, so I might sneak it in as a bonus game, or something.. *shrugs* It's not a "bad" game, it's just really really dull!!! Luckily, I also made a nice Army game, and that turned out nice and playable, so that's ok. (URL "https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads...

I managed to get two more games added to the Advent Calendar, yesterday, which means I now only have 3 more left to tackle. A, U and Z. U can be just about anything, but A and Z need to be extra special as they're the first and last games in the collection. As the first one, A will be unlocked before Dec 1st, so will be playable the longest. Z, on the other hand, opens on Xmas Day.. Hmmm No idea what they're going to be. .. But then I've no idea what U's going to be, either. ...

I spent most of yesterday working on a fairly decent game. I stripped the graphics from an old game I'd made, and reconstructed them all within Beta Collexion. Coding the game was also fairly easy to do, and within a couple of hours I had the game recreated within the new engine. Sure, it's a repeat, but it's been a long long long time (2010) since I last played with this game, so that's ok!! I'm now down to just 5 game left to do in the Beta Collexion.. A, U, X, Y and Z Once ...
