I've not done my "90 minute" challenge again, today. Well, I did spend about 6 hours figuring out the iPod development stuff, but that wasn't the point of the 90 minute thing, really, was it!? Anyhoo, no matter. There's a silly "Vuvuzela Hero" picture going around the net, and I think it started (URL "https://blog.gaborit-d.com/vuvuzela-hero-legend-of-africa/">right here), although I'm not 100% sure. If you're a regular, you've probably played my stupid Cowbell Hero game, and I figured.. why no...

There we go! Using the buffers I mentioned earlier, and pasting 100*32x32 pixel sprites onto those buffers (32x3200 pixel buffers) I've created 8 completely independent reels, each with their own selection of 100 slots. Drawing onto those reel buffers slows us down, and takes around about 2 or 3 seconds to do, so you wouldn't be doing that in realtime.. But once the reels buffers have been drawn, we can slam them up on the screen with pretty much no slowdown whatsoever. Essentially, that'...

OK, so I finally got my DevLicense, and the first thing I did was to slap the test engine onto my iPod Touch. If you've tried that, you'll probably found exactly the same thing that I did. ...that, rather than going "Weeee!" it went "... plod... plod..." at about 2 frames a second. This is not a good thing. Today I've been experimenting with all kinds of things. I've figured out how to draw images to a "buffer", and then have that buffer be one of our UIImageView things, so that it...

WarioWare is cancelled, this week!! It's half past midnight, and 90 minutes in, Tuesday's 90-minute-game isn't going to quite fit into the amount of time I'm going to be awake!!! I'm half asleep, already, and when you start spotting typing errors in your code, you know it's time to sleep. So, I'll finish this off in the morning. Then it's time to activate my lovely iPhing Developer's License, and see what fun garbage I can come up with. So, um.. Yeah, probably won't have time to do anything Wari...

You could say that this week's been a bit of a cheat. An update isn't REALLY a whole new game. But then, I also made <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/?p=656">ScoreRack</a>, this week, too.. So it all evens out! Good stuff!

Oh, my, what a crazy old week it's been!!! I spent most of Wednesday upping bits of NeonPlat, Thursday was a weird day with lots of odd bits being done, and then by Friday I had the stupid idea of 90-minute-work-sessions.. Derp!! As such, NeonPlat hasn't had a lot more done to it. I've still a day to go, and I'll probably get a few pieces sorted, but don't be expecting as much as was originally expected. Still, we have ScoreRack as a new game, for this w...

It's that time of year again, where everyone goes absolutely nutso over some stupid game of football. In the coming weeks, 95% of the world's population will be watching up to 64 games of stupid football. That's over 96 hours worth! ...I'd rather be doing something much more productive.

Simply put, Awesome!!! Hop around, grab the balls, throw them at the bad guys, and paint all the white floor tiles in the colour of your pants! There are four difficulty modes on the titlescreen, and you can play Co-Op style with up to four players simultaneously!!! (although, you all have to be using the one system. Still haven't learned to do any Network stuff, yet!!) <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/NeonPlat_2_20100608B.png"><img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Ne...

I'm still not sure what I'm calling this release, but NeoNeonPlat has been stuck in my head for a couple of days. Seems to fit. Other suggestions are welcome. Meanwhile, multiplayer (one system) is working great, and I'm starting to formulate how the scoring will all work out. There are three different baddies, the white platforms are back, and I'm starting to build up a nice progressing difficulty system. It's coming along nicely!!!

"What ever happened to midis that we used to have in games, and all the little tunes we used to hear whilst we were playing Doom. Whenever we played we would forget about the quality, because we were too busy shooting Demons in the face with ammo..." .. Then I couldn't think of any more lyrics. Never mind, the tune was created, and sat on my hard drive for about a year or two. Obviously titled FM because it sounds like a classic FM midi file! Later on, I decided to use it on my JNKx15 ...
