Waiting...

For the past day and a half, my laptop's fan's been kicking off like crazy. Watching Task Manager, it was all down to Windows Modules Installer Worker, working away in the background, killing all CPU, Memory and Disk access for what must've been about 12 hours in total.

As per usual on a Thursday, most of yesterday was spent on "other" stuff.

( width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CfWm5MIWnjk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>> I've decided that AL's next Bum should be a Pulpish one. "Something Borrowed.. Something New.." Track one is above, and is merely a test. I've still got a few more of SonicALly to finish off before I can officially move on to the next one!

Developments

Took most of yesterday off, from coding.

Watching

I watched the UbiSoft E3 conference, yesterday.

The titlescreen music is (URL "https://soundcloud.com/alodare/journal-undertakings">here) Both might change.. We'll see!

It's barely 80%.. Heck, the bullets don't even collide with the enemies! I still have to create music for it. I also need to construct so...

Developments

Yesterday was such a long, tedious day of database/site coding.

I figured I should give a brief explanation as to how I'm generating the levels in RetroRaider. This might become a regular series, so if you find this stuff interesting, be sure to let me know in the comments or email or twitter or whatever.. For RetroRaider, the map is split into an 8x8 grid, and each of those are split into a top and bottom. For the sake of making things easier on myself, I decided to make an 8x16 grid.

Developments

RetroRaider3's coming along quite nicely, now.

Last night, I lay awake watching the glorious joyful results of people having voted the right way.

I've started this week's game with a bit of Level Generation.

Each week, people share their thoughts with my games, and I like to make little community topics where I can answer/comment on their comments! It's a comment-o-rama!

@TimeKillerGames

I find a little more effort could be put in to the title screens of some of your more recent games. Why not do what you used to do, and add a little more visuals of some kind to it?

Developments

A stupid annoying dripping noise kept me awake, last night.

Bert's stumbled into a maze full of evil Mummies! Help him get back out again.

Developments

I recreated another 4 of the classic SoCoder themes into SoCoder2 yesterday.

Developments

Having gotten most of the important bits of SoCoder2 into place, I started work on a couple of themes for the thing.

Developments

Ever more complicated nonsense from Socoder2.

Developments

After last night's Game-Coding session, I decided to do a "minor" tweak to SoCoder2..

Every week, RSKGames submits a lovely review of that week's game! If you'd like to have your own thoughts posted in similar bloggy posts, you can either (URL "mailto:Jayenkai@Gmail.com">email them), post them as a comment, or let me know via (URL "https://twitter.com/Jayenkai">Twitter.)

RSKGames

Title: Well chosen title for the game. The blend of the pink and yellow circle between the blue title looks great.

Developments

Another week begins, and I wonder what game will be created?

Even more blasting around a circle!

Developments

There's no audio in this week's game, yet!

Developments

I'm continuing my fight with this week's game!
