Took a little timeout yesterday to get through the end of Episode 4, and the entirety of Episode 1 in the new Lego Star Wars game.

The Skywalker Saga contains the stories of the 9 main movies, and a whole host of playable characters.
It's the sort of game that I enjoy playing because although it has a storyline, and is very much a story-driven thing, it mostly continues to let you play whilst the plot happens around you.
Sure, there are cutscenes, but at most those are about a minute long and happen without you having to smash the A button 17,000 times to get each line of dialogue to bloomin' well move on.

This is the sort of thing where you can hop in and play at will, without needing to set aside 7 hours to play 5 minutes of the game.

GudGud!

.. Though it does take a ludicrous amount of time to load, on the Switch.

Meanwhile...


The Amiga-Blitz Framework is taking shape. The menu can hold up to 5 "Difficulty" options, each with the usual "10 high, 10 last" scores.
Still needs something to fill up the space on the menu screen, though. Currently it's a black screen with text around it.
I know that Blitz can resize an image, so I'll likely just use that to make one of the ingame sprite images fill up the space as needed.
.. I think that'd do it..
Maybe!!
