; Hello World


So much going on, right now.
Xmas is fast approaching, the end of the year looms, and everything feels like it's slowly but surely breaking around me!
Thankfully, the new AGameAWeek Framework has reached a nice point. I've finally (Finally!!) managed to get a small bit of web-based interactivity going on between the code and the server.
This will be used for scoreboards, and possibly other future things. But for now, just getting it to say 'NoNum' has been a major milestone!

As well as the framework, I really need to look into the few site fixes that have cropped up, lately, that I haven't yet done, and also need to think about adding extra features to both SoCoder and AGameAWeek.
I think those will have to wait until after New Year, though, even if I have been planning one of the features since about 2 years ago!!
.. And still haven't done it, yet.
Hmm..

Anyhoo, yeah, lots of fiddling to do before Xmas, and I guess that's really not all that far away, so...

Time to pull my finger out!!

(Although I type better with more than one finger, so it's probably best to pull them all out.)

; Flapping Away

Rychan's been making excellent progress in NES Assembly, where he's trying to recreate my Flappadiddle game on the system.
So far, he's got a nice level generator working.
... In assembly!!!
Awesome!

; GLFW3 on Mac

New user jvdw007 is having complications trying to compile Monkey games on MacOS.
Apparently upgrading to Ceberus-X seems to have solved it, but it's making me panic about having to 'fix' my new Framework every bloomin' time Apple decide to change things..
.. Grrr!

; Advent Begins


Xmas is coming, and Advent has begun.
Rockford's grabbed a crazy little calendar full of lovely little xmassy shaped objects.
Some of the designs are really quite nice looking.

Meanwhile, my little Advent Calendar radio is coming together.
A lovely little circuit with a bulb and a speaker!
I've learned all about the Breadboard, and am looking forward to seeing how the tuner might work on the radio itself.
Enjoyable!

The Advent thread contains these, and other calendars.
Hop on in, and count down the days until we've no more advent calendars!!!
