Side Scrolling Game Challenge : Explosive Balls This is of yet a place holder blog entry which I intend to edit as I progress. This go around I'll be using the software pixel plotter I mentioned in a previous blog entry. At this time of writing, all I have is my napkin design concept, which I think I really have something here.... you know...the whole no weapons thing...We let that simmer for a week. Hop over to the forums for some inspiration. Will my game idea cut it? Shouldn't matter. But it does you know it. So whats' happening, a partial automatic background simulation running pretty smooth and reliable. I'm testing with some debug visuals, all good. My bodies go stable, perfect..,,whoops it somewhat quickly starts to sink slowly. Slowly, at a speed that appears to be on purpose. Umm...little bug. I go find it, and stop...wait...that's actually pretty cool. I have it trigger when it completely buries itself. So, slap a feature label on it instead. Sha-bang. Now we're talking Okay that's week one. "I'll be back" And a current screenshot Let's do this thing... https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
