Ups

What did you get done this week.
  • NeonPlat
  • Half a game..

    Did everything turn out as planned?
    Nope..

    I planned a nice little "Not Cluedo, Honest" game, and got about 40% into it.
    Then... well...
    I really oughta know by now that board games just don't sodding well work.

    You end up cramming stupid boxes in the players face, trying to explain why X/Y/Z is happening, and desperately informing them of each little thing, whilst simultaneously trying to keep things moving along at a decent rate.

    They just don't work!
    This fell into the exact same chasm of doom, and it didn't make it back out.

    Poor NotCluedo..

    Downs

    What didn't you get done?
  • Anything else..

    Why not?
    Spent about 3 days doing the NotCluedo thing, and didn't have time for anything else.
    Once I gave up, I just kinda gave up, and spent the next couple of days doing sod all.
    Ho hum..

    Now

    What are you working on right now?
    I don't know!

    How's that going?
    Slowly!

    Next

    What's the plan for the week ahead?
  • Get JNKPlat 2012 off the ground
  • Sort out Blockman iOS controls
  • Bumble about figuring out what else to do..

    Ups

    What did you get done this week.
  • Lots of dinosaur research
  • Lots of drawing dinosaurs
  • A little bit of coding for a dinosaur based game

    Did everything turn out as planned?
    Kind of. The game is working, but the dinos weren't quite right - too realistic, so I had to draw every single one again. And again. And again...

    Downs

    What didn't you get done?
  • More coding.
  • More graphics.
  • More gaming.

    Why not?

    Due to drawing bloody dinos repeatedly. Worth it though. I hope.

    Now

    What are you working on right now?
    A platform Tower Defense game with dinosaurs and cavemen
    How's that going?
    Good other than the stuff as mentioned above.

    Next

    What's the plan for the week ahead?
  • Work on Dino game
  • Work on Dino game
  • Work on dino game. Well, I've got to get it done by 31st March - it's for a competition. Fingers crossed it doesn't become extinct.

    Have been messing around with 3D in XNA. It is taking longer than expected, and is testing my patience.
    I'm currently able to render bodies, but for some reason they're only rendered on one plane. This is also messing with the texture coordinates.



    As you can see, this is a torso. The texture coordinates are blended, meaning they inherit locations.

    Currently trying to scale and rotate the vertices I'm drawing for each bone in order to ensure the skeleton is set up properly.

    It's like a Rolf Harris sketch -

    "Can you tell what it is yet?"

    Erm, no actually!
