I drew a biscuit, today! Hurray!
Looks like Bloke-Still-Without-A-Name wants a snack.
Hmm..
Still no progress on the Linux Online functionality. I can't find a fault in my code, and am now starting to wonder if it's actually VirtualBox which is causing the issue.
Will be trying it on the Mac, later.

I'm not really sure what direction this puzzle thing's going to take.
I've a single level idea in mind, but whether I can expand that to make more levels, I've no idea.

Today's attempts at the online fixings didn't work out.. Again!
I'm totally lost as to how to do that. Bah, humbug!
So, instead I started work on the next game.
I'm not 100% sure if this'll work out, but I'm aiming to make a sokoban-esque crate pushing puzzle game.
It might end up taking a couple of weeks, as I'll need to somehow come up with a nice way to generate levels. .. Or actually make them!!

With each release, the feedback is fed back, and I like to gather any important comments and post them into an easily accessible post.
This week's game is the lovely neon shooter, On a Space Shooting Trail

RSKGames


Last year I played one the NeonPlat games and marveled at the neon graphics style. This game has the same style but the way the looks is achieved seems to have matured a lot. Using the new framework some crafty blending techniques have been used to convert the simp...

Six years to the day that they found the great big tumour in my head.
In the time since, I've created over 130 games, built 3 different Frameworks including the recent C++ one, and drawn a heck of a lot of daily Pixelart doodles, tons of ALChoons, completely rewritten two fairly large websites, and a whole load more.
None of this would've been possible without the great Neurosurgery team up at Salford Royal, (specifically, Dr Leggate's team) and the wonders that are the British NHS.<...

The second game in the new C++ Framework is another familiar favourite, as we battle once again, in the neon skies.

According to what I've read online, I need to convert the socket to a non-blocking socket, then try to connect, and THEN (after trying to connect?!) tell it to set the timeout to a low number.

4th March 2018
Today during testing, I hit a rather nasty issue with the framework.
When coding the Online Scoreboard component, I added a 5 second timeout to the code.
Unfortunately, as well as that works "in theory", the timeout is completely ignored during the "connect" part of the script.

2018 Framework
4th March 2018
So the shooty game (On a Space Shooting Trail) is near enough done.
Today I'll be needing to compile and upload, and then you'll get to play.
I know it's only Sunday, but there's no point in keeping the game to myself, when it's already ready for launch.
So, what's next then?
I've nothing specific in mind for this week, so if you'd like to see me tackle anything in particular, let me know in the comments.

Spent yesterday making the game look and feel as good as I could, but STILL haven't added any pickups!

Spent about an hour cursing at Android again, last night.
"Hey, why not download out wonderful Android Studio, which makes everything a breeze!"
... Bah, humbug..

Player goes right, bullets are working, baddies appear, deaths and kills.
All is working well.

I seem to be making a new Horizontal Shooter.
Thus far, I've got bullets and a trail working, but I'm not sure if I'll be keeping the "Catch a bullet" mechanic of previous versions.

Each time I release a game, the thoughts and comments come rolling in.
Let's take a peek at this week's thoughts.

RSKGames


I find Flappadiddle Doo having the smooth gameplay like its predecessor and the polish found in ''Sheep Goes Right''.

In order to cut off previous edition's scoreboards, I opted to change the game from #552, to #553.
Unfortunately, this has resulted in the random number generator changing, and all the levels are now completely different!!
Currently playing through all the levels again, to be sure they're all working.
Release, maybe tonight? Maybe earlier.. No idea!

I'm fairly happy that Flappadiddle-Doo is ready to go.
Over the next hour or so, I'll recompile, get all the assets redone, and get things uploading.
Meanwhile, last night was spent watching the 3D Printer printing the second test SoCoder ball.

Been playing the Windows edition of Flappadiddle-Doo for most of the day..
.. Playtesting, honest!!
Had to play through the "World" levels over and over, just to be sure they're doable.
Tweaks yet to be done, include making the "Bonus Multiplier" a bit more obvious. I'm not sure how best to do that, but it'll probably just end up being a star-system or a red/amber/green light thing... You'll know what I did, once it's ready!
Once that's done, I'm going ...

A bit late in the day to realise you'd only coded half the blinkin' online scoreboard stuff!!
True, the Framework was happy to send the score data to the server, but ... Then what!?
I'd not coded ANYTHING about receiving the data back, parsing the data, popping the scores and player names into internal memory, and then displaying the online scores to the player.
D'oh!

The 3D printer finally managed to start printing, last night.

It managed about 8% of the print, before the print "popped" off the mat, and everything went horribly awry.
Bah, humbug..

The game's a little closer to release, as I've stress tested all the "Main" levels.
