Developments

Today's the last day, if you want to submit a doodle for my latest game!

Doodle Here!

-=-=-

Draw something, add your name into the lower box, then click the submit "not a button", and I'll do the rest!
.. actually, most of my scripts will do the rest. I just have to copy and paste a couple of things, then recompile.

In case you're wondering, which I'm sure you're probably not..
One of the reasons for doing this "not in the game" editor is for the possibility of later adding it into future games.
See, I've been stuck in this rut, lately. Trying to come up with a way for a level editor to work well on all devices that Monkey can target.
A few days ago, I wondered how well an unintegrated editor might fare, and I have to admit, it's done a lot better than I thought.
People seem happy to mess about with the editor, and since Monkey and HTML connect so well, it's fairly easy for me to use a standard HTML text input box to allow for text entry. (Which is important on things like a Tablet, where you don't have a keyboard ready and waiting.)

All in all, this little experiment has proven that a separate editor, with web-based "cloud" loading and saving, is entirely plausible.

Which is nice!!

Daily Doodle : Recording a New Album

Platdude needs some choons to listen to during his many adventures. Unforunately, he seems to be the only platizen that can sing anything decent.

Incidentally, the spritesheets that hold the 64x64 Platdude Pixelarts are 1024x1024 pixels in size, and since I left the bottom-most row blank (for random oddities, leftovers and failed pixelarts) that means each sheet can hold 240 pixelarts.

Today, I've reached 480. Which means, as of tomorrow, I'm starting sheet #3!!!
Yikes!

Misc..

Four hundred and Eighty.
When I started to draw.
I didn't consider,
I'd make it this far.
