Getting a bit panic'y now! So far I've got 7.5 games finished for the Advent calendar, which means I have about 25 days to complete around about 19 games. It's going to be scarily close. Meanwhile, I found myself wondering... What would Platdude look like, if turned into one of these over-size-head Pop Vinyl figure things.... <br /><br />(URL "https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_6937.png"><img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_6937.png" alt...

The great online site, (URL "https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2014/10/17/freeware-garden-platdude-in-a-bit-of-a-spin/">Rock, Paper, Shotgun) seem to have randomly decided to feature a Platdude game, which is odd, given that they've picked the most frustratingly difficult one!! Platdude in a Bit of a Spin has been picked for their (URL "https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2014/10/17/freeware-garden-platdude-in-a-bit-of-a-spin/">frontpage)! Hurray for Platdude!!

Each year, time dependent, I like to do something special over Xmas, and this year I've opted to start early. If I want a whole Xmas Collection ready on the OUYA (And possibly iOS Store) in time, I need to get onto it quickly enough to have it finished, uploaded, and passed through review, in time for Xmas. And, if it's an Advent Calendar, then it needs to be ready even earlier, for Dec 1st. Yikes!! I started the planning stages of this thing a couple of months ago, when I asked folk on both Socoder a...

A new spin on an old favourite. Can you guide Platdude through a series of completely random mazes! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_A_Bit_of_a_Spin_20140930A_thumb.png"> <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_A_Bit_of_a_Spin_20140930B_thumb.png">

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...

Thwack the Crocs over their heads with your balls! Swamp Golf!! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_Swamp_Golf_20140826A_thumb.png"> <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_Swamp_Golf_20140826B_thumb.png">

I'm not 100% sure how this game's going to turn out, as it's currently still in the early days of development, but I spent so much time, yesterday, getting the Ball-Thwack physics to work well enough... It'd be a shame to give up, now! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/393_002.png" alt="393_002" width="306" height="266" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4063" /> Tuesday : Platdude in "A undecided game title with the word Golf in it"

After an unscheduled break, we're back with a brand new "Platdude In" title, this time driving around a racetrack in a go kart! It's almost as if I've spent the past few weeks doing nothing but playing Mario Kart 8!!! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_A_Go_Kart_20140721A_thumb.png"> <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_A_Go_Kart_20140721B_thumb.png">

As I sit here trying to code this week's AGameAWeek, I'm struggling. Not because I don't know what the game's supposed to be. I actually have most of the game planned out in my head, and I think it might be fun, but something else is butting in. For some strange reason, I can't stop thinking about NeonPlat Adventures. I'd like to make "Greenie's Communication Tower", but each time I open the code, I instead find myself thinking about the complexities of Platform World Generation, and how much fun I fo...

This week, I got a new phone, and so game-dev took a bit of a back seat. As a result, this game isn't quite as good as it could've been, since it's missing a fairly significant part. hmmm.. <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_Battling_Ostriches_20140624A_thumb.png"> <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Platdude_in_Battling_Ostriches_20140624B_thumb.png">

The rules are slightly rejigged in a usual AGameAWeek style, and things are fast and furious, but all the essentials are in.. Flapping,...

Someone over at Softpedia has been closely following AGameAWeek for quite some time. It seems that each time I post a new game, within a relatively short period of time, it pops up on Softpedia's archive. Handily, they tend to link directly to my downloads, so if in the future I opt to update any of my games, people will be able to get the latest edition. They also write their own little descriptions and take nice screenshots, too. It's a nice way of doing things. I'm rather happy about the way their s...

Welcome to Xmas 2004, when I released an early test version of Platdude Spheres! The game's basic idea was sound, but the gameplay never quite fit the idea, and it doesn't exactly "feel" like Platdude, either. As such, the game was pretty much abandoned at the stage you currently see it.

What happens when you take Platdude, sit him on a rocket, and send him blasting his way through a colourful rainbow tube, full of stars!?

The Squishies are making a welcome return to Platdude's universe, and .. Boy, what a strange universe it is!

This week, there will be no AGameAWeek.. After the complete and utter chaos of Future Classics (7 games written in 48 hours) and Blockman Worlds (3,000 levels, 9 worlds, crammed into a week!) I've decided that I need a bit of a break! Next week, we'll be back to our normal schedule, and I guess I have to make a "Platdude In" game, this month, so it'll be something Platdude related. Stay tuned to see what it'll be! Happy Easter, everyone! (URL "https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Eas...
