On 3ds, make the teleporters in JNKPlat be able to go in custom orders.

Spent most of yesterday recreating the SmileBASIC game "Optimal Spring" in the Browsercade.

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

Guess I gotta start a game for Monday, then, eh?

A fair number of changes, over on the ICQ app, today, including a forced request for your phone number.. Not really happy about that, and will be watching for spam over the next few days. If I don't post a giant whinge about my phone suddenly getting a ton of garbage sent to it, you can assume it's "probably" not being used illicitly.

Meanwhile..

Last night I started work on a remake of "Fan of Bugs" over on PetitSwitch, and the basics are working reasonably well. Bugs get spun aro...

A quick "game" tutorial type thing for a silly little game, created using PetitCom/SmileBASIC on the Nintendo Switch. If you've grabbed a copy from the Japanese eShop, you should be able to follow along, since the program itself now includes a complete English translation. I'll assume you're using the program with a USB Keyboard attached, but if not, most of the keyboard functionality can be accessed by hitting the [-] button on your controller. From the main menu, hit the Make a Prog...

(As in.. A board made of cards!) Move around the Card Board and score points as you go. Points are awarded when you land on an unturned card, based on the card's value (Ace = 1, Jack = 11, Queen = 12, King = 13) If you land on a Diamond, you'll earn twice as much. A Heart will give you another go. Landing on a Spade will cause you to Lose the points, whilst landing on a Club will award the points to all the other players. The winner is the player with the most points, once the last card ha...

Don't worry, I'm still working on the same game, it's just that the game's changed quite a bit.

Right, I've had this idea bubbling about for a week or so. It's almost fermented, but I think I should be able to figure out what's going to happen along the way.

This is the alarmingly over-simplified sprite tool that I've been using to do all my Petit Switch games. Don't expect anything magical!! If you've a Switch, and have downloaded SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the tool using the Public Key...

A blank slate, this morning, as I try to come up with a Shoebox game to do. I did consider getting back to finishing off The Quest, but every time I look at the code, the whole thing seems to be larger in scope than I ever imagined it might be.

Batman posted to the Suggestion box, today. How nice of him to take time out of his day to make a request. JNK 1 on 1 fighting game I want to fight as my favorite JNK characters.

Last February they removed some of my disability. My Mobility was apparently perfectly fine, even though my Mobility is my main issue. *ugh* Today, I finally get my day in court, and hopefully all goes well. Normal AGameAWeek service will resume later.

Meanwhile...

I added high/last tables to the Browsercade, yesterday, but noticed late last night that they aren't showing up in Hillside Conquest. Not sure why that is!! Hopefully they're stable for all the games, and I'm de...

I think I'll skip a new "Main" game, this week

A decade is over, and what have I done? 373 games, created a new blogging script for here, rewritten the Socoder forum, started a few new sites and more! Oh, and a brain tumour! It's been a wild and crazy decade, and over the next few days I'll be looking back at the best (and worst) games from the decade. 2010 - BlitzMax 2011 - Touch Control 2012 - The Bad Year 2013 - Monkey-X 2014 - OUYA!! 2015 - The Gap Year 2016 - Forget-V 2017 - Cuddle Me 2018 - Ringing the Changes 2019 - Overl...

Two fairly significant upgrades yesterday, but all background/framework stuff, and no actual progress on any games. Eeek!

Last week, Tobobobo picked out this game as a possible Shoebox addition, and .. I think it's probably something that could work. I think that'll be this week's Shoebox title. It seems simple enough, but deceptively so. A nice unusual game, fit for the box. If you've any games you'd like to see me tackle, be it Foldapuz, Shoebox or Browsercade, feel free to suggest it, and I'll see if I can work it into play. .. Unless it spirals into complex depths that become unmanageabl...

Guide Greenie through the maze of flames in a quest to gather up his lost floppy disks. You can Play Disk O' Green in the Browsercade, in your Browser, on Desktop, Mobile or Tablet.

In reply to my earlier thoughts on "blurred" backgrounds, Alan suggests.. Probably requires opengl wizardry. I need to study up on this a bit myself. And he's probably right..

As the insane number of games increases, so does the mailbag! This week, let's take a look back at Hillside Conquest. You can Play Hillside Conquest in the Browsercade.

I have played Gorilla game in raylib games example, so I had an idea what to expect. Still I was surprised by the polish in ''Hillside Conquest'' implementation.

The two tanks fall into line, and a battle commences. Tilt your gun, line up your shot, and destroy the enemy tank. Rather than being a simple "Destroy = 1 point" game, I've opted to add Arcade-style scores to this. Earn points for closer hits to your opponent's tank. Your score is also increased by how much health your own tank has remaining. You can Play Hillside Conquest in the Browsercade, on Desktop, Mobile or Tablet.
