When I was building the beta versions of NeonPlat Adventures, it always included a little readme file. The final release didn't have one, but I figured that was ok, because it was so simple it didn't really need one. The original readme was only really there to explain that beta peeps shouldn't mention the Calendar, and then I kinda rambled on a bit! Anyhoo, if you find yourself in desperate need of a readme file, this is it!

As I always say, I'll wish you all the best on your quest. It's a toughy. You have a life, and unlike me, you probably also have one of those "Social Life" thingies! These tend to get in the way. As does enjoying yourself.

On Tuesday, things had started to go annoyingly slowly.. That part where the number of bug fixes grossly outweighs the number of fun happy additions you can be enjoying adding to your game. But I did a lot of fixes on Tuesday!

Hello developer, We added your games to our website. You can find the entries on <a href="https://html5games.de"> - and vote for it . In return we would love a backlink from you. Multiple banners and textlinks are on Thank you very much in advance and greetings from Germany The html5games.de team That's fantastic! Games get Spread, Games get Played, and more importantly they're all PlayMyCode games, so it's helping to get thei...

You could say I crapped out, and gave up. I aimed for 52. I aimed for a 2nd whole year's worth of games, within a startlingly short amount of time. .. But I probably would've managed it..

Today I did a bucket of iOS dev, but not the think I'd been doing previously. As with a whole lot of other iOS half finished games, it seems that Microbes (MLG) will be stuck in it's special little rut until I can fathom some sort of difficulty level system that actually tries to kill the player, rather than kinda bob about a bit. Meanwhile...

A demo!!?!?!!?!?! With all the freeware that's on here, the years of making freeware, and the fact that I've only ever made games for the fun of making the games, it's pretty damn unthinkable that one of my games might actually be a demo! But that's how it's going to be for this one. I like this game. I like it a lot! Last month, this started as a simple remake of a shitty little spike dodging game. A quicky, or so I thought, to slap onto the AppStore as a semi-sequel to Spik...

Note : PlayMyCode is no longer available A slight change this week. I was planning to do AGameAWeek as usual, but was somewhat thrown off course by a request to make games, instead! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/PMC3.png">

This week there shall be no AGameAWeek.

Yesterday, Rob from RetroRemakes asked if he could do a spritesheet for Spike Dislike. After a lot of back and forth, I decided to write a how-to, so any future requests could go a little bit smoother! Here's some info on how to make 'em, alongside a bunch of all-important rules.

I'm out of ideas. I ran out about midway through Advent, and I think finishing that off has sapped every last ounce of ideaness out of my poor little head. So, in order to continue to do AGameAWeek, I'm going to have to start doing things in a slightly different way. I thought about this for a while, yesterday, and it does seem slightly plausible, if a little dumb! <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Cassette_50_K7_Cascade_Games_1985_Standard_Jewel_Case_-_Front.jp...

You all know how to play this one! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Super_Spike_Dislike_20110104_Logo_thumb.png"> <a href="https://jayenkai.blogspot.com/p/spike-dislike.html">Also on iPhone/iPod/iPad</a> Bounce continuously to the right, avoid the spikes, shoot at them occasionally, Super Spike Dislike!!

No normal AGameAWeek this Tuesday, but worry not, there's still some games to be played! <img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/xmasxompo_480.png">

A game cram packed into the space of only a day! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Space_Clusters_20101026_Logo_thumb.png">

Time to pick a new Jingle. I'm thinking that Year 3 should be marked, slightly, by tweaking the intro jingle a little, so I've gathered together a handful, and popped them all here.

54 games. Last year I only managed about 30-odd, so I think that's pretty good going. Sure, it might not have truely actually been A Game "Per" Week, but I did at least keep the ratio up. If I hadn't taken the time out to build the framework, I probably would've actually achieved the target a little better The stats show I was pretty much on top of things up until that point, but then things got slower and slower until my buffer zone was all dried up. Anyhoo, this is a nice big lengthy re...

Tuesday, Fred the Parachuting Flea. Needs a few "I didn't get that!!!?" kinda tweaks, but it otherwise working nicely.. If I drop dead tomorrow, at least the game's ready for release

The plan was as follows.. A couple/more Big Remakes due to be released on the week of my 200th game A couple of little piddly games to tide me over. The plan is now.. Spent too much time on Remakes, releasing remakes instead!! Aw well.. First up, Microbe2 A great little remake with.. um.. powerups are thus far about as interesting as it gets! ... <a href="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/MICROBE2__(Screenshot_04_Jul_2010_134833).png"><img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/MICROBE2__(S...

Again, a bit more than 90 minutes, and again a lot like yesterday's task. Whereas yesterday I was, for reasons unrevealed, playing with Microbes.. Today I'm playing with... <a href="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/rr2.png"><img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/rr2_thumb.png"></a> That one!

Am I still doing that 90 minute thing?! *shrugs* Seems to have faded out a bit. Oh well, no matter.. Today I spent about 2 hours working on this. <a href="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/MICROBE2__(Screenshot_30_Jun_2010_021525).png"><img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/MICROBE2__(Screenshot_30_Jun_2010_021525)_thumb.png"></a> .. Yep, that..
