We're about a week away from the intended March 5th Release Date, (assuming I can get everything sorted soon!) so I figured it's probably about time that I post about my plans for SpikeDislike2. Obviously, if SpikeDislike2 is going to be on sale in the AppStore, players are going to need an incentive to buy it, but if I'm also going to release a Windows/Android/Browser edition, for free, what extras would the iOS folk be paying for? Well, here's where the plan comes in. On Release Day...

For the past couple of years, my birthday has been "SpikeDislike Freebie Day". This year, that's not going to happen The final version of SpikeDislike2 is REALLY close, but not quite close enough. SpikeDislike will be made free for a few days when SpikeDislike2 is released, in a couple of weeks time. Meanwhile, though, my first iOS Monkey game has managed to blunder it's way through Apple's review team, and is all nice and active on the AppStore, j...

Hmm.. I seem to be remaking things, a lot, lately.. Either the Doc's sucked out all of my imagination, or I'm enjoying this Monkey language a bit too much!! Aw, who cares, it's another classic AGameAWeek game, remade for Browsers and Android!! <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/ss1.png"><img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/ss1-300x225.png" alt="" title="ss1" width="300" height="225" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2584" /><...

Last night I finished off the C3ntipong stuff, and got the release edition compiled, tested, double-checked, and uploaded to Apple. That's it! It's gone.. It's off. There's no turning back, now! In about a week's time, C3ntipong may very well pop up on the AppStore, assuming it gets approved! A relatively painless procedure... well, except for all of <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/2013/02/ios-editions/">yesterday's palaver</a>, anyway!

You're probably wondering, by now, with all this wonderful "Monkey" stuff that I've been banging on about for the past month, where the heck my iOS offerings are. Well, while it's true that Monkey does indeed make the coding a heck of a lot easier, there's still another matter to attend to. The dreaded "iTunes Connect" area! ARGH!!!! You've probably read enough of my rants to know that iDev isn't easy. There are licenses to deal with. "Provision" codes, Certificates, all manner of stupid fiddly thing...

Oh my god!!! Are you kidding me?! Hey, Nintendo, take a look at the title of this website. Guess what I'm doing.. Single-handedly, too, I might add. You're a company. You're a BIG company. Why in the name of hell does it take you SEVEN MONTHS to bring Animal Crossing 3DS to Europe? Japan : November 8, 2012 Europe : June 14, 2013 That can't be right!?! It just CAN'T be!

Next week's AGameAWeek is already in the works. Yet another remake, this time of a game that doesn't quite appear to run as well as it used to. <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/GameList.php?ShowJust=56">The Heist</a> was coded in August 2008, and does still run on modern PCs. The thing is, though, it runs at about 30fps on most of my current systems. I'm not really sure why this is, and have tried a couple of things to get it up to speed, but nothing seems to be doing the trick. ...

You know what I hate? Icons. You might've noticed that very few of my games include icons. Not only do I hate having to draw icons, I also hate having to create 70,000 bazillion different sizes for every sodding size that might be needed. Gah, I HATE icons!!! AGameAWeek on Android means I need 3 icons every smegging week. Oh, great : Today, I made a "Jay is too lazy for this" tool, called IconResizer. <a href="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/IconResizer.zip">Download IconResize...

I'm at odds over this one. The first possible launch date is Feb 23rd. Feb 23rd is my birthday, and for the last two years, has also been SpikeDislike=FREE Day on iOS. It'd be nice to have SpikeDislike2 Day on the same day, but then I'd also need to get it onto the AppStore by that date, and ... that's a wee bit tricky! It'd mean I'd have to get the iOS App submitted by around about this time next week, and .. yikes. that's cutting it a bit close, especially considering I...

Part of SpikeDislike 2 will be it's various game modes. I've a few simple ideas in mind, and may be asking for additional ideas in the future, if I start running out! Meanwhile, here's the first to be fully integrated, and playable, and kinda fun. Sheep Goes Right! Yes, it's a bog-standard endless-runner mode, but it has a sheep, so that makes it 89% more awesome! More modes a-comin'!

I've yet to figure out how to solve TamToucan's X/Y Tilt issue, but a couple of gripes have already been tweaked. <a href="https://agameaweek.com/?Game=282">C3ntipong Test Edition for Android - Version 2!</a> The paddle, for starters, is now set much further up the screen.

OK, folk are getting intrigued as to how all of this is working, and how nice the Monkey language is to work with, so in the spirit of not being a complete and total git, here's the complete everything that there is so far..

The Download

Framework Downloads have been removed due to lack of updates! I've also left the html5 build intact, so you can give it a little run if you don't have Monkey installed. (I think!) Should be as simple as going into the .build folder, then the ht...

If it nags for an OpenAL dll, you can grab that <a href="https://connect.creativelabs.com/developer/Wiki/OpenAL%20Installer%20for%20Windows.aspx">here</a>. I'm going to fiddle with the zip later, and see what OpenAL stuff I am or aren't allowed to include. Let me know if it does/doesn't run. Thanks!
