My little Amstrad CPC. Bought as a family Xmas present from Dixons, back in the mid-80s. It was moved into my bedroom since we moved to this house in 1987, and it's been part of my bedroom ever since.

Good thing that, throughout all this House Moving gubbins, I've had to keep logging into Mum's emails to check on all the status stuff. This morning, an influx of "Enjoy your free trial" stuff from Adobe was sitting in her inbox.

So many forms!!

Whilst waiting for the house move to finalise, but having way too much on my plate, I'm not really concentrating on AGameAWeek. Let's see what I managed to do, yesterday..

Over the past month or so, I've been trying so hard to keep up with the AGameAWeek pace. The two-letter games thing was supposed to keep me spurred on, imagination wise, and the end of that is so very close that it's stupid to think about stopping here. But I can't go on any longer.

Poor little robot.. Can't quite get to his blocks, on about 70% of the levels that are currently being generated. I need to rework the level generator to ensure everything's possible and accessible.

Lazy Jay took control yesterday!

Not really sure where this game's headed, but let's have a screenshot of something, huh!?

Have spent the majority of the past week-or-so sitting outside trying to cool down.

Woke up to a buzzing noise. It wasn't a fly/bee sort of buzz, though, so what could it be?

This week's ALChoon is melodically done, but there's no lyrics yet. I think the SoCoder Newsletter's about to be abandoned for another week. And this week's AGameAWeek hasn't even been thought about. How on earth did I ever manage to do three games a week, just a couple of years ago?!

Time to come up with a game with an incredibly stupid name that starts with two X words. Xylophone.. .. Um.. Xenon?!

18 years ago (15th June 2005) over at the CodersWorkshop forum, we started a little weekly challenge called the Wednesday Workshop. Each week a challenge was issued, and everyone tried to make little mini games to fit the suggested theme. This week, I've decided to remake the first four games that I made for the Wednesday Workshop, and make them as playable as I could. You can Play the four games, in GotoJSE.

I tried all day, yesterday, to find a new gameplay mechanic for Light and Dark, but just couldn't find anything decent. Game abandoned. I've only made 4 games, this week. *sadface*

Spent AGES yesterday trying to come up with a gameplay mechanic for Light and Dark.

Gosh, it's been a busy week. Today I really need to focus and get some games coded.

Still haven't made it as far as the bridge. In fact, yesterday, I only made it about half as far as I did the day before. My body just isn't good at activity, any more!

Yesterday's attempt at reaching the bridge was a bit of a failure.

Today's plan is to walk to the Meccano bridge.

Just when you thought you were done with pirates..

OK, now I should really start thinking about the next game.

Grab the coins and dodge the rocks, as the Violent Volcano erupts once more. A game semi-suggested by Michael Fernie, but then reduced to minigame size!! You can Play this game over at GotoJSE.
