Gee Liz?
Blog
25th April 2017
Developments"Why did you call it Gee Liz?" -=-=- I'm not sure it's obvious, but the "world" of Gee Liz is a wrapping cylinder. Run constantly to the right and you'll end up right back at the start again. I decided it was probably time to make a nice smooth ramp-like platform engine using tiles. I've previously done "lumpy" floors using only lines (see Invisible Munky) but haven't ever really tackled it with a tilemap, mostly because that requires me to draw all those matching tiles, and I'm a lazy git!! With a nicely wrapping tilemap engine, and a fairly fast paced character (I had to slow her down, though!!), I realised it reminded me of the old Amiga title "Wiz'n'Liz".. That's where the title came from. The main character looks nothing like a wizard, or a witch, and so the reference isn't really too obvious.. But that was the reason I gave it the name I did!! For most of the week, the game was simply titled "517-Platformer". How imaginative! Daily Doodle : The Master BakerPlatdude's baked a wonderful cake, today. Wonderfully spongey, full of jam, and a tasty lemony topping. Misc..Time to start another game. To plan a brand new world. Creating sprites and sounds and tunes, And all the code to build. -=-=- If you'd like to stuff my mailbag, (Please do!!) you can do so right here, at https://bit.ly/AGAW_Mail .
