Spent some time on a couple of side-projects yesterday, both of which turned out rather nicely.
-=-=- First off, I tweaked the VidGen. I've added two keys. F to hide the menu/preview screen, and switch to a fullscreen view. Click somewhere around the bottom right of the canvas to return to the menu. I hadn't previously done this because screen captures are a pain in the arse. But I figure it probably best to allow for it! Second to this, since you can no longer see the Play button when the menu's hidden, you can now tap P to start the currently selected musical track. (Note : As with all Jay Tools, nothing is uploaded to the server, and everything is done in-browser.) Gud gud! With that all done, I then set about making the latest generator, which is based on the nice semi-3D effect from Orret Cha. It works great, except the reflection's ended up a little wonky. I think I've fermented the solution long enough, though, and should be able to fix that up later today. You can Play with the latest effect here. Meanwhile...I then headed on over to GotoJSE, where I haven't recently really done anything productive, and decided to make a nice swirly brush effect. Not sure why.. Go figure!! The effect generates a few bristle points when you click the mouse down, then smoothly draws with those bristles. Each put-down is a new set of bristles, and the end results is a nice swirly set of patterns. Nice! You can Play with this effect here. Meanwhile, Meanwhile..After that I headed back to JNKPlat on the Switch, and got Bats, Jacks and Walkers all moving around like they oughta. Alongside those, I added about 3 new levels, I think. That definitely wasn't as productive as I'd've liked, and the month is rapidly drawing to a close! I definitely need to add a better frontend for the game, and as for tiles, I still have Ice bars, See Saws, Teleporters, Mines, Plunger Mines, and the Darts to add. OMG, there's loads left to do!! I posted a little Twitter video of the three enemies on a test level. Right.. Back to work, Jay! Views 53, Upvotes 12
