Much like last year's Alpha Collexion, this year's collection features all manner of crazy gaming oddities.
Platformers, Shoot-em-ups, Puzzle games, they're all in here, and you'll be unlocking them all over the next month.

Rebuilding AGameAWeek, Nintendo 3DS Homebrew and a little helicopter!

There are now 26 games in the Beta Collexion.
o/hurrayo/
Over the course of today, I'm going to be playing the games over and over and over, to check for bugs and ensure they're as nicely playable as they oughta be, and then it'll be time to upload it.
I'll probably give it the weekend before doing all the uploading, giving me plenty of time to pick out any weird oddities along the way, but all should be good to go by then, so review time shouldn't be "too" lon...

Developments

I spent most of yesterday working on a fairly decent game. I stripped the graphics from an old game I'd made, and reconstructed them all within Beta Collexion. Coding the game was also fairly easy to do, and within a couple of hours I had the game recreated within the new engine.
Sure, it's a repeat, but it's been a long long long time (2010) since I last played with this game, so that's ok!!
I'm now down to just 5 game left to do in the Beta Collexion.. A, U, X, ...

Developments

Since the XP era, I've been using the Microsoft SyncToy tool to do all my backups, and for the most part it's been doing a damn good job of keeping everything duplicated, over the many different harddrives/NAS's that I've gradually destroyed through the years.
A few days ago, however, it started behaving very oddly, and I'm not really sure why.
I have a feeling that it's due to Monkey's use of Build folders, and the fact that each game I've written over the past 3 ye...

Developments

I tried 3 completely different games for "Q", over the course of yesterday, but nothing seemed to be any good.
Instead, I left Q for another day, and moved on to C, at which point a nice ball-rolling game appeared and seemed to work fairly nicely.
This is the second ball-rolling game in the bundle, but hopefully it's different enough to warrant it.
What's becoming a rather worrying trend, however, is that there seem to be a lot of "Move X object through Y rando...

Developments

Over at Socoder.net, Rychan suggested that I should make a "Bumper Cars" sort of game, whereby you need to whack opponents off a grid.
Taking that as a starting point, I figured it was probably a good idea to finally tackle "Thwacking Balls" physics.
About an hour or so later, I had a fairly rudimentary ball-physics thing going on, and a nice simple little bumper-ish game going on.
"Rolly Balls" won't be unlocked until the 17th December, in the Beta Collexion, ...

Developments

Folk who enjoyed Alpha Collexion after it's December "Advent" mode, might've noticed that the menu system randomly picks a different game each day.
I've been using this to pluck a random slot, to try to design a game.
Yesterday, it picked out "L", and I got the word Lemming stuck in my head.

Developments

Spent yesterday powering through a quick monster-maze game.
Managed to build a basic dungeon layout builder, got monsters wandering around, and generally made a nice playable little game.
