Sleepy Jay took over, yesterday.
I knew what coding needed to be done, but nothing productive was happening at all.
I tried a few things, including building a nice random dungeon generator, but.. .. Boy, that didn't end up nice, at all!
Today I might scrap what I did, and redo-from-start.

Developments

I spent AGES working on a new Level Generator for Sheep, yesterday.

A few tweaks have to be done to the frontend of Sheep Goes Right.
RSKGames has noticed the Credits screen is an absolute mess, and that there's no Back button on the Level Select.
There's also a weird jiggle to the level select when you first load the game.

Each week, players send in their thoughts for that week's game.
Or, at least, RSKGames does!

This week's game is Sheep Goes Right

RSKGames

Overview: A totally different AGAW game in terms of art style and music but with the familiar mix of twist to the gameplay mechanics and attention to detail. A pleasant surprise is that the game is not endless, it has finite levels and ends w...

It's about flamin' time!!

Last night's midnight sheep-testing did NOT go smoothly.
Bloody iPhoneX's fault, again...

Sheep Goes Right is now in the hands of Apple.
The iOS edition is "OK", and doesn't appear to do anything out of the ordinary, but we'll have to wait and see whether Apple approve it or not.
Meanwhile, tomorrow I need to figure out how to display the Windows Online Leaderboard on the screen.
The menu in its current state doesn't really leave the usual gap for that, plus I kinda broke the usual online functionality.

Developments

I've got a basic scoring method in the game.
3 stars instead of 3 sheep, but basically a case of "Beat the level on your first try for 3 stars, 2 stars if you lose a life, 1 for losing 2, and anything beyond that gets no stars."
A tally is on the right hand side of the menu, and that's pretty much all the scoring there is.

Getting closer to release.
The current version of the game is now on my iPad, and I'll be stress testing all the levels to ensure they're the same set of levels that the Windows and HTML versions have.

Looks gorgeous

Over on this week's Patreon Notebook Pages Lookback thing, I've stumbled upon an unfinished project!
Head on over, and if you're a subscriber, you can download a rubbishly unfinished test engine that doesn't do much of anything!
Woohoo!!

Developments

More work on Sheepy, yesterday, and a fair amount of play testing.
I've got worlds 1-5 working nicely, which will be the PC/HTML editions.
The Pay-for Premium iOS edition will go all the way up to 20, but that means more and more and more and more testing!

Also available on SoundCloud or in the Music Archive
Pulpish Nautical Tower was suggested by KingRabbitCPH on YouTube a couple of weeks ago, so I thought it important to make the choon.
If you've any Pulpish remixes you'd like me to attempt, let me know!!

I was sat for most of yesterday creating additional choons for Sheep Goes Right.
4 new'ish tracks, 3 of which are recreations of the choons from the original.

Developments

The menu's now working, and the absolute basics of the world functions are in place. The game now runs about as well as it did the last time I made it!!
Today will be about designing more themes and adding new obstacles, as well as hopefully adding a choon or two.

After waking up to a moderately awakened state, I opened Control Center on the iPad and tapped the Record button!

Developments

Most of the elements of the previous Sheep Goes Right are now in place in the new version.
Today I need to add back in the Spike Cage (That line of spikes that drop down to block your path momentarily) and then that's all the original obstacles back into place.

Developments

Sheep Goes Right is coming along nicely, but a quick test on the iPhone, revealed a terrible terrible issue..

The issue, isn't entirely obvious, but it's definitely there.

Developments

This week's game is scrapped.
The idea seemed sound. Take random obscure animal, try to make a game from it.

Time's whittled away from me, this week.

Now available : Poke 5,n on iOS.
\o/

I drew and animated a fish, last night.
Granted, a fish isn't that hard to draw, or animate, but after a "What game can I do next" session, that seemed like a good idea.

Geeze, that took a while.
A few quirks as MonkeyX gets old, but nothing as-yet unmanageable.

Developments

I'm *almost* ready to do the upload to Apple, but I'm finding myself being quite fussy.

I need to remember that the new blog uses BBCode, not html like WordPress used to use!
About ten times, whilst posting yesterday's game, I accidentally stuffed things into html elements, and the server had a whinge at me.
D'oh!

As each week's release gets mentioned across the web-o-sphere, I trawl through comments and reviews, and post some feedback to the feedback!

Overview : A 3 X 3 puzzle block with a target pattern that players need to match within the given time limit. Game has one of the five different game modes per puzzle with a limit of 5 moves

Upload went mostly ok.
Screenshots A and B both uploaded as A so I needed to quickly open up the script and tweak that, but otherwise things went as well as expected.
I now need to add the Music links.. And eventually I'll have to go through the complete archive, adding those back in. Eeek!

A game of poking boxes!
