On my system, no, they're individual, but I have a script that chucks them all together into a giant ''comb.js'' with a little amount of minifying as it goes..

I'm now flicking through all the games for a second pass, fixing up things as necessary.
It's going fairly well, but goodness me is it slow going!
I'm currently going from the latest game, backwards, and am up to Greenie's Heroic Adventur*snip*

I've not been doing music, this year, so I've decided to make a proper start on a Musical Advent Calendar which I can post over Advent this year.
I now have three whole tracks at the ready. They'll be instrumentals, so I can add them easily i*snip*

Black on white is nice and bright,
While white on black can look like night.
Orange and Cyan are contrasting hues,
Since the reds on the spectrum are opposite blues.
But a hue change isn't always just what you mean,

IIRC, (though you might have to test it to be sure.. it might've been BlitzMax), Blitz could handle Color 0,0,RGB
That way you could have things like Red=&FF0000: Color 0,0,Red
(I think.. can't test right now, though. Blitz doesn't run *snip*

JSE's controller is now inside Browsercade, and is .. of course.. misbehaving!
Left = Browsercade
Right = JSE
Same code. Drastically different sizes. Why, browser, why!!!??!
Oh, and also the floor's disappeared in Flappadiddl*snip*

I'm now up to the bit where I'm fighting to make decent onscreen controls, and wondering just how well it'd work if I copy+paste swathes of JSE controller code directly across.
...hmmm..

Is what you've done, see, is you've now given us the version that you corrected, using the Text commands.
You're not showing us the version that didn't work, with *snip*

Ok, I've squinted for 15 minutes, and my guess is ....
''What is FontHeight() returning?''

Not ''what do you expect it to be returning''. But ''what IS FontHeight returning.''
No, my bad, that's the text version, it&*snip*

I can't make head nor tails of that.
Most of the issue comes down to me not being able to unread commented out code.
Maybe I should look into modern text highlighting method. I'm sure it's more doable than it was almost a decade ago.

Eeeeuw, what a nasty ratio that is!!!
Get a squarer phone ;)
On mine it's 2.5 vs 3, so it's not as noticeable.
In Spike's defence, it really is hard to manage...
A, having floor and topmost spike in view
And
B, having enough lookahead

I've not figured out exactly why the above video is as broken as it is. It's something global, somewhere I think. I've probably reused a variable. Naughty me. 'tis the way I do it :D

I'm thinking, everything might be easier if I just chop the screen in half when in Portrait mode, and use the bottom half for onscreen controls..

Brutalism week isn't going well, is it?!
Hopefully next week's more interesting. Thing is, it shuffles the bag of weeks each time it picks a new one, so I really have no idea what's coming up next.
