Monday : I randomly decided to buy a Pebble Watch from Amazon. Tuesday : The Pebble Watch arrived, and I experimented by making a (URL "https://apps.getpebble.com/applications/54d115812a56ee50e0000005">Platdude WatchFace). Wednesday : (URL "https://apps.getpebble.com/applications/54d29517e4d94c04cc000026">SpikeDislike Jr!!) I expected to have to download a complicated devkit to get it all going, but was pleasantly surprised to find out that, in actual fact, you can do it entirely online. The IDE...

Time to hunt for your floppy disks!! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Futrino_20150129A_thumb.png"> <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Futrino_20150129B_thumb.png">

Prepare for a fully featured level!

Most of the basics are in there. There's a couple of baddies, a couple of weapons, collectables, and other bits and pieces. I've yet to add powerups (shield would be handy!) and the "Level Complete" could look a little bit less shit! ...

I think it sounds vaguely like an 80s Shoot-em-up might sound, and nobody else appears to have used it. I've spent today working on the Enemy Types, trying lots...

Enemy one is a bog standard squiggly looking alien creature. ( width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/R9i32sUR9tw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>> He moves around the room any-which-way, and turns whenever he hits a wall. He is very boring! Hopefully I can make a few more interesting creatures, later. For now, he simply does as you expect, and also saves his position when you exit/enter rooms, which is handy. More to come!!

Today, I added Barrels into the mix. I figured it best to hide the disks somewhere safe, so I put them inside barrels. A pile of barrels will appear in each and every room, so you'll have to do a lot of blasting to try and find the three disks. ( width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/leuTP0ZOUf8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>> I'm also considering putting other items in the barrels, such as extra lives, weapons and even randomly spawnin...

So, the ship flies around the maze picking up the three different coloured disks, which it then pops into the .. umm.. Let's call it a magic door! Collect all three, take them home, level complete. I now need to add enemies, other deadly things, and a weapon would probably...

After having played about with the maze layout a little, and getting the scrolling a little more workable, I added a little sprite for testing movement.

Next up, adding collision detection, 'cos right now there's nothing stopping the little ship from floating out into space!
