After having played about with the maze layout a little, and getting the scrolling a little more workable, I added a little sprite for testing movement.

Since I'm spacing out my dev-time, I should hopefully have more time to do Dev-Diary type posts, as the games progress.
Hopefully, this will give you a little more insight into the sort of decision making that goes into AGameAWeek. I'll also try to take the time to add odd bits and pieces of craptastic-useless-trivia whenever I get the chance.
As frequent players will have noticed, I've been using a strange secondary numbering system for a long while. (Check out the Windows-Downloads to see them!)

I've opted to call Year 7 the "Gap" Year, in the sense that not every week will be a game... There will be frequent Gaps!
I'll be trying out the usual crazy ideas, but each game will be given a little more breathing room than I usually give them, in an effort to make games a little more substantial than they usually end up being.
The Rules are as follows..
After week one, the game should at least be playable. If it isn't, then I throw it out and start something else. No good forcing bad ideas down p...

Currently on my list of ideas, I have...
1. A kind of space shooter style platformer.
2. A redux of YBox Yahtzee from the Alpha Collexion
3. SpikeDislike3
There's also a few other ideas bubbling away, in my head.
The main problem I'm having, is getting started on any, because I know that whichever I choose to start on, will more than likely take more than a week to complete.
As such, I've kinda been sitting here all week going "well, what else could I do...?" and not actually getting ANYTHING started....

I say Failure, but it's been a sort of productive week.
The thing is, every time I open my framework, I realise there's still LOADS of stuff that I haven't started, yet.
At some point over this year, I'd like to start implementing online scoreboards, but that needs groundwork, and I haven't even begun.
.. Well, I have, actually.. I started about a week ago, but there's a LOT of things you need to do, to get it working correctly, and that means a LOT of forethinking, and planning ahead.

Sixty two!!
That's 10 more games than there are weeks in the year!
..although, that's a teensy bit of a cheat.
Technically, I've released 31 games,this year, but Future Classics is 7 games in one, and Alpha Collexion is 26 games in one, so when you add them all up, you get a nice big lovely number!!

Ok, so, I need a new archive.
It's been a good number of years since I originally created the Jayenkai Archive, and although the software's lasted through a fair number of rethemes, and a fair number of enhancements over the years, it all still pretty much has the exact same issues that it did on day one.

You may have noticed a slight lack of gaming over the past couple of months. Usually I cut down on AGameAWeek during the closing months of a year, and instead focus on a larger project, but over the course of this year I've already tackled a number of larger projects.
Blockman Worlds, JNK Bombers, Future Classics.. They've all been substantially larger than my standard weekly output.
As such, I'm actually struggling to come up with a decent "end of year project" that would be worth tackling.
Instead, I...
