Back in 2012 I was hospitalised with a brain tumour. In August of that year, I posted a lengthy ramble about what was going on, and now nine years on, I figured I should post an annual "how'm I doing" post.

Yesterday I started to think about doing a "proper" game with JSE.

Guide our intrepid hero through the clockwork maze, to gather up the mystical Clockwork Bananas. If you've a Switch and SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key

7am, woke up with a banging headache.

Not 100% sure where this week's SmileBASIC game is heading.

Reverse Polish Notation is a form of mathematical layout, whereby your equation function is left until the end of the numbers that it'll work with.

Made a completely different game.

Yep.. A Boat..

Drew some circular rocks, yesterday, for a SmileBASIC game.

Not sure what happened there, but it's already half one, and I'm still not quite awake!

Spent most of yesterday working out ratios.

Yeah, I might redo Traxicle in the Browsercade.

Dodge all the enemy and shoot them down, as you float through the multicoloured tunnel gathering coins. If you've a Switch and SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key

I should probably shuffle my schedule around so that everything isn't all happening on a Thursday..

A lovely swirly background effect..

I think we're at the end of the road for imaginative SmileBASIC games! Here's a pretty formulaic Snake clone. If you've a Switch and SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key

@RSKGames has taken a look back at the past few Browsercade games. Let's join him on his quest.

I tried playing Blockman On Ice last night without the cheat-path being shown, and it became MUCH harder to get anywhere!

The classic returns. Trying out a new method of insanity, this time. There are pink pickups to grab, and also the occasional explosive device which will cause extra challenges along the way. Other than that, the rules are the same. Pop the Popcorn, and try to survive.

Week Six on the Getaway Island

Let's code a really simple Tennis/Ping Pong game, shall we?
