A nice quicky, this week. Having spent most of the week doing DIY, sorting out Socoder, and occasionally working on PRC2 when I get a chance, I’ve not had much time for a game, this week.. So, I did what all frantic coders do. I threw loads of colour on the screen, and hid the [...]

BAH!! DS Coding is annoying!! Techy stuff inside..

Another morning complaining to GoDaddy. They didn’t know what was up, so I sorted it out myself. Silly GoDaddy. Problem solved, eventually, but with no time left for any Game work today.. Shame. Still, there’s always tomorrow. .. Or tonight

Game #2′s turning out quite well, except it’ll probably need to be taken down a peg or two. Currently it’s, shall we say, a little psychedelic! And, that’s only amplified once it gets onto the blurry DS screen! Lots of motion + lots of colour = lots of Weeeeeeee!!! Not a good combination. It looks [...]

Should only take about 10 minutes”. It didn’t take 10 minutes. Instead, it took all day! So, no work on my games, today! The [...]

Game #1, Sokoban, required a nice scrolling tilemap, of infinite size. I spent a couple of days getting that all up and running, so that it’ll do for other games, too. But today, Game #2, Surprise!, required a different type of map. Game #2 needs a wraparound map, so you can move from one side [...]

I just paid 400 points for Worms on X360. What the hey, right?! It’s Worms… What could possibly go wrong!?! .. Well, aside from the things I ranted about, on the original DS version, a long while ago.. Well, would you believe it, there’s something wrong with the Xbox Live version, too!
