For the past few months, I've been back and forthing on a way to get this to look half-assed on the 3DS. The main issue is with the Starfield, vs the 3DS's LED "haze" (Or maybe that's because I'm using a Original 3DS as my Homebrew unit!?) The slow-to-react LED is causing really horrible "clarity" issues. When you moved, the stars turned to a dark grey whilst the screen tries to catch up. If you stopped, and it has time to draw them fully, they become hard and white. The constan...

OK, here's one thing I've learned, today. For .. Whatever.. reason, emscripten seems to work infinitely better if you #include ".cpp" instead of #include ".h" like you'd normally do. I'm fairly sure this is "wrong", but screw it, I don't care!! Look what I can play, right now, in my browser!!!

As I plan out my methodology for making 3DS themes, I'm hitting somewhat of a brick wall.

As I release each game, folk from all over the web chip in with their thoughts. Let's see what RSKGames thought of the new-improved complete edition of JNKPlat! Warning : Spoilers ahead You can Download JNKPlat 2018 here, or at GameJolt or on itch.io

Gameplay: After a few levels using one hand for WASD and another for JKL, I got used to the controls and it became easier and smoother to move and jump around with ease and speed. Thi...

@RSKGames says.. This is a comment about the recent feature ''enter your name'' after playing one time.

Yesterday, as I watched the empty scoreboards once more, I decided it was probably about time I "switched them on" properly. -=-=- Note : In order to activate online scores on my recent games, hop into the options screen, and Enter Your Name.

I should probably make this a regular thing, again. It's always fun to get a little back'n'forth going.

Dan from SoCoder

Recently, i saw a Choplifter game (Game Gear), on youtube and thought, with a bit of imagination,the rescuees looks like the platdude. So my idea is, if you like to make a Choplifter Clone or alike with platdude. At least something with Helicopter ? ^^;

My plan for this week was mostly to fix all the issues that people had with the first test release on 3DS.

So, the R4 3DS i Gold + (or something) turned up last night, at around 6pm, and I spent the next two and a half hours faffing about to get the Homebrew Launcher installed onto my old 3DS.

A conversation over on SoCoder inevitably led to me ordering a 3D Printer, because.. *shrugs* It's my birthday next Friday, so if I needed an excuse... There it is!

*beep* I added the generic menu beeps, last night.

So, after having read up on URL access for a couple of hours, I managed to get about 0% through it, yesterday. I might actually end up trying to find a proper book on the subject, and having a good focused read-through. .. Although I imagine any book would probably focus on Win/Linux, and not the cross-platform usage I'm after. I've really coded myself into a pickle, here!

Server Developments

For about an hour, yesterday, this site was inaccessible due to "Error 508 - Resource Limit Reached" I asked the hosts what was up, but the reply wasn't all that helpful.. Or at least, they didn't specify what it was, that was using up all the resources.

A stupid annoying dripping noise kept me awake, last night.

If any comments are made on AGameAWeek games, they'll end up in this giant sprawling topic of feedback! You can (URL "https://AGameAWeek.com/0401">download Read Error A here), for Windows, play it in your browser via HTML5, and hopefully it'll be available on Razer Forge soon, unless they think it's broken

Oh, sod it.. I'm not getting any further with this, so I'm going to scrap it. I will, however, be keeping a few assets for future reuse.

What was it?

Whose stupid idea was it to make 26 games with AI players?!

Four years ago, I made <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/2012/08/home-again-home-again-jiggity-jig/">this post</a>, all about my hospital and brain tumour gubbins. It's been a long time since then, so I guess it's time for an update... In general, my health is about the same. Over the past few years, I've learned the sort of things that can cause me to get queasy, and am attempting to avoid such things. I've learned that over-exerting myself can cause a lot of unexpected sick...
