A decade is over, and what have I done? 373 games, created a new blogging script for here, rewritten the Socoder forum, started a few new sites and more! Oh, and a brain tumour! It's been a wild and crazy decade, and over the next few days I'll be looking back at the best (and worst) games from the decade. 2010 - BlitzMax 2011 - Touch Control 2012 - The Bad Year 2013 - Monkey-X 2014 - OUYA!! 2015 - The Gap Year 2016 - Forget-V 2017 - Cuddle Me 2018 - Ringing the Changes 2019 - Overl...

Over the past number of years, I've taken to having a short nap midway through my day. Otherwise things tend to drag on, since I usually tend not to do much else but sit coding and musicing and artsying all day, and it all gets a little monotonous without gaps inbetween. My naps help build up the energy to carry on my coding well into the night, and continue to make the crazy oddities that you get to play regularly..

Xmas Day was spent with family, as it should be. Gifts and food, and time spent playing gmes. We got a card games called "Mr Lister's Quiz Shootout" which wasn't (booo) anything to do with Red Dwarf, but is instead a game about guessing top-10 lists. Quite fun. Today will be another family day, as we have more guests turning up, and will probably be all stuffing our faces with the Xmas leftovers. Normal AGameAWeek service will resume once all the Baileys has worn off! Happy Holidays, eve...

I hope you all have a lovely day, and get plenty of rest before the new year, when we start this whole crazy thing, all over again!!

Time to eat up all the biscuits, but can Roland manage to figure out how to get hold of them? If you've a Switch, and have downloaded SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key...

Not too much to panic about, today... I didn't bother doing a Foldapuz puzzle, yesterday. Well, actually.. I DID...

I wasn't intending to make anything like this, this year, but after Saturday's day of disaster, I decided it best to have something creative to post today! So, um.. Yeah, that! You can Download "Snowglobe 2019" here. Merry Christmas!

Yesterday was "Just one of those days.."

You know what I REALLY should do? I should code a data transfer tool that uses the JoyCon's IR Camera to pick up data blasts from the PC, so that I can send information that I create on the PC over to the Switch. But I haven't done that, yet.

Aaah, I see my problem, now!

The evil bunnies are wandering through your field. Use your gun to scare them away, but don't get too close! If you've a Switch, and have downloaded SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key...

Over on SoCoder, Pakz posted a link to a site called microStudio, which is quite a lot like how the old PlayMyCode used to be. Create a project, draw sprites, code a game, all inside your browser. microStudio.dev

Paint the grid one player at a time, painting 9 squares around your chosen point, if they're empty. The player that paints the last square is the winner. You can Play Obstruction in the Shoebox, under the One On One games section.

Yesterday I finished a game. ..And then I started another one!!

Find all the dominoes within the grid. Each domino is either horizontally or vertically aligned. Each of the O symbols suggest that the two adjacent dominoes are aligned in the same direction. X's suggest the two adjacent dominoes are aligned at 90 degrees. You can Print out a sheet's full, here, or Play it in your browser, here.

Yesterday was a nice relaxing coding day. I started coding a new Shoebox game around about 3 in the afternoon, and managed to get about 95% of it done by about 8'ish. Happy with the results, I figured I'd finish it off tomorrow, and then sat watching YouTube videos for the rest of the night. No stress. No worries. A relaxing day of gamedev.

I really need to stop playing with this knitting thing, and get back to doing games!

Another of those "CBA" days, yesterday.

I think the schedule for 2020 might be slightly different than the absolute insanity that I've been doing the past few months.

Back to knitting, yesterday, as I added an alternative stitch type to the mix.

After yesterday's Petit Switch release, I took a few hours break, and came back to coding later in the day. My plan was to rearrange a few sections of this website, and try my best to improve the way the Petit Switch page looks.

Flea the Flea (I didn't bother giving it a name!) is having a great time on the jumper. Grab all the coloured knitting blobs as you rush along the crazy knitted platform game. If you've a Switch, and have downloaded SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key...

I didn't get around to enhancing the knitter yesterday, as any and all dev-time was focused on the Petit Switch knitted game!

The pixelart to knitting tool went through a number of tweaks, yesterday.

A simple anagram game, this week. Each of the rings is an 8 letter word. You can Print a sheet of Wrd Squares here, or alternatively Play it in your Browser.
