The game's a little closer to release, as I've stress tested all the "Main" levels.

Flappadiddle-Doo's main menu now has Worlds 1 to 6 listed, as well as Endless 1 to 6 too. The unlocks work, the extra characters are in, and everything's golden! Once everything's up and running, you'll be able to play through and unlock everything as you go. Hurray!!

The 3D Printer arrived. I spent most of the day doing the setup.

Yesterday was spent rearranging bits of my bedroom to (hopefully!) fit a 3D Printer in there. If it doesn't fit atop the chest of drawers, I've got an emergency plank of wood that it should fit on, but it'll have to temporarily be on the floor until I can find somewhere to plonk the plank of wood!! Need more space!!!

A conversation over on SoCoder inevitably led to me ordering a 3D Printer, because.. *shrugs* It's my birthday next Friday, so if I needed an excuse... There it is!

Spent about an hour, last night, trying to figure out how to get the "Home Directory" of an App, from MacOS, using just C++.

I *think* I've now sorted the save-file issues. After hours of stress testing, which showed up oodles of issues, I've inevitably decided that I should make the values Unsigned, since in 99% of my games, the scores tend to go up, not down.

Over the past few weeks, I've noticed my highscores seemingly vanish for no reason. I initially put this down to the fact that I was compiling over and over, and occasionally deleting the build folder, thus losing the save file. Yesterday, I finally wrote a stress test for the save files, and was shocked to find that, indeed, it's losing highscores.

"Episodes 1, 2 and 3 of Stargate Origins are now available online" said the tweet. I hurried to the Apple AppStore, downloaded the StargateCommand app, and promptly paid £19.99 for "Full Access"
