Looks like some professors are starting to teach a crazy wild idea of coding a "Game-a-Week".

Good luck to anyone tackling this.. But it's not sensible to keep yourself thinking in that mindset, though.

After doing this for a decade, I find it VERY hard to work on anything longer, and I certainly wouldn't recommend it as a starting point in a career, nor would I suggest it's a good idea to be teaching and grading this sort of thing. It seems like it's a very dark road to be going down. Be sure to practice lengthier games, as those will be the sorts of things you'll be doing once you've left your education.

But, hey, have fun, and enjoy the world of "Game-a-Week"

The basics are coming together well enough, aside from the odd controller issues.

You might not have noticed, but in the 2018 Framework, the two main control schemes are ever so slightly different.

There's a bunch of important pieces that have to be put into place for a new JNKPlat game to work properly.

After each game's release I receive an influx of feedback from all of the one person who played it.

Let's see what @RSKGames thinks of the bouncy pods!

Although August 13th isn't a significant date in my health matters, it is the date that I wrote this rather lengthy blog post, back in 2012.
It's now become a bit of a tradition for me to post an annual update on this date.

The Tumour

A tumour/cyst/blob was wedged in my head, somewhere between the Spinal Cord and Cerebellum, near the Fourth Ventricle.
Thankfully the tumour turned out to be none-cancerous, but once they removed it, the balance issues kicked in, and I ended up stuck in the hospital, on various drips and oodles of medicines, vomiting daily, for literally months.
It wasn't a pleasant time.

The best way to learn about the odd world of AGameAWeek is to try a few of the games out.

Luckily, I've bundled together a set of 11 games into a neat package for Windows system.

I might end up delaying the game until tomorrow.
After a weekend full of yucky flu conditions, the coding's been a little slower in pace.
