DevelopmentsSpikeDislike3's been somewhat of a dead duck when it comes to sales. Just over 140 in the past 3 months is awful, even by my standards. It's odd seeing SD3 doing so badly when some of my other games (like Puzzobomb from 2011!) appear to be suddenly doing much much better. And so, inevitably, the game becomes free for a day. I'll probably leave it on free until later tonight, to give most people a chance at grabbing it. If you've an iPhing, go grab the game for free, then sp...Views 14, Upvotes 4

Although this week seems like a quick re-use of old sprites, I can assure you that they are in fact a completely different set of sprites!!
Brand new Puzzobomb sprites, ready for an all new Puzzobomb game!
But before I tackle the lengthy process of making a whole bucketload of levels, let's see what it's like without any levels at all...

Agameaweek Gold
17th November 2011
I should take solace in a couple of facts.
1. My iOS Apps have been selling oddly, this week.
Usually I sell about 1 copy of SpikeDislike, every day, but this week I seem to be getting oddities like Puzzobomb and StringyThings suddenly springing back to life.
.. sure it's still a max of 3 a day, total, but...
it helps!
and it's odd!
2. My daily analytics stats have doubled.
Of course, I should probably also point out that for the past two months, my lack of AGameAWeek has caused the stats to halv...

AGameAWeek teaches us one thing.
Some games you win, some games you lose.
When you lose, there's not a lot you can do.
Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and move on.
This is a post about how I threw myself on the ground.

I'm sitting, trying to type, but I'm so tired it's all coming out as bizarre random codey bits, and nothing's really working out at all.

4. Sheep Goes Left, 100 level pack + new ingame objects + organised menu to do both the packs. (upped to Apple, waiting for release)

What's going on!?!

26th April 2011
1. I'm waiting for Puzzobomb to pop up on the App Store, assuming they like it, and let it up there!
2. NinjaDuck is slowly plodding away, but I have no idea what type of game it'll end up being.
I mean, I have a vague idea! Obviously it'll be a platformer! But other than that.. *shrugs*
3. I thought about Y-Box, and how that'd be a nice game to have on my iPhing.. Then I started juggling some sprites, built a nice set of gfx, but then couldn't be bothered to code anything.
4. I made a wall......

Bye Bye Barry Bee!!

14th April 2011
I'm thinking, I'm switching, I'm testing and tweaking, and nothing so far seems good.
D'oh!!
Barry Bee looks ok, but plays like a bag of crap.
I'll leave it where it is, though. At some point in time, I might manage to make a playable game out of it.
Not now though. Not in the mood!

That's the last time I did a Mailbag post!
Blinkin' eck!
Over the past 6/7 months, I've occasionally dipped into the mailbag and plucked out little snippets, but I figured it was about time I did a proper one.
A few of these have already been posted, but there's a whole batch of new ideas here.

Gravity Bob

13th July 2009
Aww.
Didn't work.
This week's Wednesday Workshop (#209) asked us to create a game with some kind of Gravity.
If you've been following AGameAWeek for a while, you'll remember Puzzobomb. A nice puzzle game with Gravity.
I also did MunkyBlocks as a kind of follow up.
Well, this week I decided to try it again, but with rotational gravity, rather than plain gravity.
As such, the block will fall in the direction they're placed.
They ha...
