The story so far... Jay buys Mac Main PC Dies Jay worries not Jay uses Mac.

OK, I've gone through all the CPC Cassette, and here's the ones that initially jumped out as being at least vaguely redoable. |update| Old Google Spreadsheet doesn't seem to work.. |update| Next up, I'm going to start grabbing other editions, and going through them. Well, I say next up, I've gotta make this week's first, though! .. I'll go do that!

Here's Terry Paton enjoying Spike Dislike on an iPad! *video removed* <a href="https://bit.ly/AGAW_iDev_Spike">You can get Spike Dislike for your iPad/iPod Touch/iPhone, right here!</a> It's only 59p, and all profits go towards another 200 AGameAWeeks!!

Here we go, then! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Royal_Rescue_20110111_Logo_thumb.png">

It's starting! Cassette 50, Game number 1. <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Cassette-50-Royal-Rescue-Screenshot_09-Jan-2011_153935.png"><img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Cassette-50-Royal-Rescue-Screenshot_09-Jan-2011_153935-300x168.png" alt="" title="Cassette 50 - Royal Rescue (Screenshot_09 Jan 2011_153935)" width="300" height="168" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1135" /></a> If you're hoping to Collect Them All, ...

I'm out of ideas. I ran out about midway through Advent, and I think finishing that off has sapped every last ounce of ideaness out of my poor little head. So, in order to continue to do AGameAWeek, I'm going to have to start doing things in a slightly different way. I thought about this for a while, yesterday, and it does seem slightly plausible, if a little dumb! <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Cassette_50_K7_Cascade_Games_1985_Standard_Jewel_Case_-_Front.jp...

Why is it always the little random games with a dire lack of content that become the most popular ones?! Lesson Learned : I oughta stop trying so hard, and just knock out the simple little games! I was thinking this whilst doing the Advent collection. Some of those were really playable, and I had a whole lot of fun whilst making them. On the flipside, doing the larger games like that horrible nasty RPG, and.. To be fair.. a lot of the Year3 games. They've all been kinda half-assed, and not really muc...

You all know how to play this one! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Super_Spike_Dislike_20110104_Logo_thumb.png"> <a href="https://jayenkai.blogspot.com/p/spike-dislike.html">Also on iPhone/iPod/iPad</a> Bounce continuously to the right, avoid the spikes, shoot at them occasionally, Super Spike Dislike!!

The year is new, but the logo's old. Sod it. I love this logo! I should be doing a year-long roundup thing, but I've not had much time, what with the whole Advent and stuff. No matter, there's been some good, and plenty of bad, and that's what AGameAWeek's all about!

No normal AGameAWeek this Tuesday, but worry not, there's still some games to be played! <img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/xmasxompo_480.png">

Hello all!

Either it does, or it doesn't! |update| It no longer does. PlayMyCode.com is no longer a "thing". I'm sad to see it go. |update| Lemmie know! Code done using <a href="https://www.playmycode.com/">PlayMyCode</a>, a fantastically usable online game creation website, created by one of the Socoder forum members. Bravo!!! BRAVO!!! Long story short : Site first (properly) visited today*, first true look at the language today*, first gam...

Think of this as a christmas present. (URL "https://socoder.net/uploads/1/AdventCollectionSource.zip">You can download the Advent sourcecode here)

Hmm.. I forgot to post a "This Week", and a "Suggestion Box", this week, didn't I. One little tweak to my weekly schedule, and the whole thing goes to pot! Today's Tuesday, and I won't (again) be posting AGameAWeek, and I'll be forwarding any complaints straight to my spam bin! 21 games, some of which are much more playable than recent AGameAWeek games, all done within the past few weeks. I think that's more than enough to stop you whinging about a lack of AGameAWeek. Still got about 4 more to go, alt...

What follows is a review from PlayThisThing.com I screengrabbed it, because they're probably going to fix the "little" thing at the top, and I want to continue to take the piss out of them. Here's me taking the piss out of them.

Same as, Advent continues right through until Xmas! Although, whether the advent collection will include a game for Xmas day or not hasn't yet been decided.. If I can manage to do enough, I will, but I won't be spending christmas morning coding anything, so..! Meanwhile, over the past few days I've been building this. There's currently 52 tracks in there, and.. well.. It's a start, anyway. I have other stuff to go in, and extra features/tweaks to make. A "Song by URL" feature...

Platdude Hungry!!

This week, I bought one of these...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I'm happy for any/all magazines to put any/all of my games in their magazines, or on their coverdisks. If you do, TELL ME, and I'll do my best to purchase a copy of your magazine. Heck, you might even be nice enough to SEND me a copy, for free! But you probably won't, because it's actually really really really stupidly rare when you ever bother to even tell me.

As we continue on our short Advent based journey, I'm having a bit of fun making silly little non-games for a change. It's been a while since I allowed myself to do such simplistic games, and I'm even finding myself coding them in the small hours of the night. eg, since 10pm, when I got home from work tonight, I've done the following.. 1. Watched an episode of Corner Gas whilst eating my tea/supper. (still watching repeats of that!! Doesn't get old!) 2. Made a game. 3. Watched tonight's Merlin. 4....
