This week, a nice and simple recreation of the Amiga classic, Megaball, as made by Ed and Al Mackey.
You can Play Futriball on itch.io or over at GotoJSE.

Got the majority of Monday's AGameAWeek Proper done, last night.

Spent a while thinking ahead for future Amiga games.

Each pod can only collect gems of the same colour. Guide both pods gently, and, as always, Spike Dislike!!
If you've a Switch and SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key

Jefferson asks..
Hey there! Could I have the source code for this?
The name of this site should give you some idea as to how difficult Centipong is to create from scratch.
But just in case, allow me to plot you some points to help guide you along the way.

I need to come up with a Foldapuz for tonight.
Really running out of ideas for that, but am determined to keep pushing onwards until there are literally no more random puzzles left to put in!

Yesterday, I opened up the Crossword Code to start work on the other reuses of the game, and sat staring at the screen for around about half an hour.

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!

Overview: I have not played any of the previous versions of the AGAW Centipong games but playing last years ''Rainbows Shooting from my Balls'' game I had an idea that it might be a very high paced experience. This Centipong game is a very intense fas...

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.

Centipong isn't coming together very well.

The centipods are certainly more colourful, this time around.

Someone over on the GBATemp forums mentioned Centipong being one of their favourites of my DS Homebrew collection.
To be honest, I never did solve the "What Comes Next" issue with that.

Developments

I got my Apple TV yesterday, and it's exactly what I expected it to be.
In many ways, it's exactly the same as the previous model, and will no doubt be used for most of the same things.
But now it has games. Except the games have to work with that niggly little tiny touchpad, and if you play (for example) Geometry Wars 3 for about an hour (eek! That went quick!!) then you'll end up with your thumb feeling a little numb, as if you've been rubbing it on some sandpape...

Last week, you threw the ball.
This week, you bounce the ball.
It's almost like a theme, or something!!

Aaah, the familiar sound of squelching!!

The gameplay is easy on this one.
Throw the ball at the oncoming Centipedes to smash them to pieces. You can then additionally bounce the flailing pods about, to do extra damage, and ca...

So, here we go again.
We're up to Year 5, and hopefully we'll get a full year out of it, this year (nnngh).
With Monkey, we get a chance to go back over our previous games, and remake them for a new audience, with iOS, Android and Browser based versions. I expect this will prove to be an exciting year.
Given that we can play at showing off, what games do you think would work best, and adapt well to the new touchy/mouse based gameplay options?
Or, what games could prove to be an obsc...

Note : PlayMyCode is no longer available
A slight change this week.
I was planning to do AGameAWeek as usual, but was somewhat thrown off course by a request to make games, instead!

This week there shall be no AGameAWeek.
