Spent a few hours, yesterday, getting a very basic looking car to drive around a very basic looking grassland. (and/or, blue space with stars in it, acting like a flat driveable area!)

Attempt number one hasn't gone particularly well.
The game struggles to keep up with itself, and my laptop's fan kicks into overdrive, while the game just about manages to find the word "AA" in amongst all the possibilities!

I tried, yet again, to get the iOS side of my Framework to run, last night.

Spent most of today figuring out the best way to organise all my home photos.

The button layout chaos continues..
I'm going to try to make the gui for the level editor do as much as it can without needing buttons!!

I was doing the compiles for this week's game late last night, and as I sat in front of the Mac I figured I might as well try to do the trailer on there.

I thought that, for this game, having a string of enemies would result in a more difficult enemy to beat.

Here's roughly how the game's looking, so far.

No coding, last night, as I realised I didn't have any of my iOS Backups on the new laptop.
The whole process isn't as scary as it once was, and iTunes is gradually learning to behave itself over the decade or so since I started using it.
But it's still slow as crap..

Well, that doesn't sound right!!

Don't you love it when, after a recent Update, Windows always opens the browser up. You always expect the page it leads you to will be full of actual information about what the windows update just did.
..
But, no.
It never does.

Boy, it's not fun trying to doodle a bunch of mazes for Blockman games.
I HOPE that I'm sticking with the current 25x15 maze size, because having to remake all these maps would drive me slightly crazy.

Spent most of today rewriting the track converter tool.

I've been trying my best to work on the car racer thing, but after the past few days of tweaking the 3DS Homebrew stuff, the racer's certainly been neglected.

I think I've got a decent method for doing tracks.. Maybe..
The method goes like so.
1. Draw track onto 64x64 image.
2. Convert to string of text.

Spent a few hours yesterday digging through code, neatening things up, and fixing what bits and pieces I could.

For a long time, I've been "putting up" with a bizarre issue with my laptop's soundcard.
No matter the drivers I use, or settings I tweak, the soundcard seems to keep falling asleep.
If you try to play a sound (via ANY media program/app/windows dialogue/etc) it'll "reboot" leaving a 1.5 second gap before it starts any audio.
Give it a 3 or 4 second delay of no-audio, and the soundcard seems to fall asleep again.
