Each week, more and more games are piled onto the site, and tons of feedback is submitted from those who can still be bothered playing any of them!! If you'd like to Play Follow the Path, you can do so in the Browsercade.

The old AGAW native games used to have a feature in the credits screen where the gamers can see how many times they have played the game.

I spent about 4 hours sat watching nothing happen, yesterday, and drew image after image after image, with nothing seemingly working, before ultimately giving up. What was I doing..?!

Back to another slow day, yesterday, as I struggled to get much of anything done. I think I *might* be trying to squeeze too many projects into a week, right now, but Super Secret Side Project has me doing side-tweaks when I'm supposed to be resting!

Oh, geeze, I'm struggling this week.. I tackled Army of Flags ALL DAY yesterday, but have barely gotten anywhere. The enemy hasn't any movement. The bullets don't collide with anything. The whole thing is a bit of a shambles, if I'm honest.

Yesterday, Tobobobo tweeted a .gif of an old Amiga game.

I managed to draw some simple looking characters, little huts, trees and the all important flag, yesterday. Got the basics of the tilemap working, got the little cadets running around like they oughta, and ... That's enough, right!? Twitter Link

Took AGES getting even simple movement working yesterday.

With a skipped Browsercade, this week, and my "Time off", I'm managing to finish off all manner of little bits and pieces. I even took the time to finally make myself a little AGameAWeek Notification Noise using GarageBand. I might do a few more, and upload them to the site.. *shrugs*

I did that thing again, where I go "Hey, if I write the entire newsletter on a Wednesday Night, instead of saving half of it until Thursday Morning, I get more time on a Thursday Morning to code!!" .. And then did that thing where I spend all night writing the newsletter, don't get to sleep until stupid-o'clock, and then don't manage to wake up until after 12. D'oh! I've now posted the SoCoder Newsletter, and this week's ALChoon to YouTube/Soundcloud, and will shortly be h...

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..

The game is still on schedule. .. ... Just not the same schedule it was on, yesterday!

Eagle Eyed viewers might've noticed that the Youtube trailer for Hillside Conquest went up about 5:30 this morning. The game is uploaded to Browsercade, and I'll be posting the posts in a jiffy. Meanwhile...

Need some rocks and circuit boards? Look no further than the latest JNKsg Generators. Rocks are kinda lumpy, but definitely aren't the best looking rocks in the universe. Circuit Boards are a little slow. I really need to figure out a quick and easy way to optimise those. Honestly, not the best update to the JNKsg site. Bah, humbug!

Much the same as yesterday. A bit of Plat in a Spin, and a bit of Pool. Hopefully I can get these two done in time for their scheduled releases. I'm still not 100% sure I can do Pool in just a few days, but since I have nothing else planned, I guess I'll be doing that!!

Mostly complaints.. Fuze "tries" to be two things at once. Both a classic BASIC, and a more modern "Not BASIC", and when those two things clash, you either get a great language like BlitzMax, or you get .. Well, Fuze..

Each week, as I release all my lovely games, a massive influx of fan thoughts bombard my innbox. Be part of this amazing section of the site, by leaving comments and thoughts on the games and other bits and pieces. You can Play Spiky Tower in the Browsercade, in your browser, on Desktop, Mobile or Tablet.

@RSKGames

Spiky Tower is one of the ultra fast game that I have played from AGAW collection.

Yesterday I spent a good couple of hours working on a couple more XM Modules for the Browsercade.

RSKGames returns with his thoughts on recent games. You can Play Shoebox of Games here, which are all Mouse/Touch controlled games, which run 100% in the browser. Or you can Play Browsercade here, which are all Keyboard/Gamepad controlled games, for a more Arcade-like experience, but which also run in your browser.

Browsercade games

: The main menu or Homepage looks fantastic with each game having the name at the top in their own game themes.

Keep the Microbes at bay with your big giant ray! Spin yourself around the arena, and shoot for survival. Don't let any of the Microbes get beyond the outer reaches of the arena. If you've a Switch, and have downloaded SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key...

Find a path from the top to the bottom of the maze, which moves from spot to spot using the order of the symbols shown at the bottom. You can Play Maze Club here, but don't talk about Maze Club.

I'm currently about 98.36% happy with Blockman, but one little niggling issue is happening on iOS. For some reason, it's occasionally slowing down to about 25fps, instead of sticking at 30. I'm fairly sure this is to do with my dodgy framerate code, again, so will be holding off a final post until tomorrow. For now, though, if you'd like to give Blockman a whirl, head on over to Browsercade.com and .. Play the Game!!! Any issues, any at all, please do let me know. Full release in...

Spent an hour or two testing various enhancements to the FPS stuff, and I think I managed to find a nice middleground that seems to run fairly well.

I should probably try to finish off Blockman in the Browsercade, today, but I'm slightly worried that there's a teensy bit of slowdown in the engine, so I think today's plan should probably be to track that down.
