Getting to that difficult part, now, where every idea I'm having seem grossly oversized for the timeframe..

Ideas like "Little Lemming", where you have to guide one lemming through the level to his home, or "Zyzyxixlyzy Zizlxiyxz" which is a clone of Qix.
Neither of those could I achieve within a few short hours.. Lemming requires a bunch of properly designed levels, and as for the Qix clone.. .. I'd have to figure out a way to "fill" the arena.. on multiple targets.. fast!!
..
Yeah, now's not the time for either of those, really.. Nor the Pipe Rats remake, or the Angry Birds rip-off, or any number of random thoughts and ideas which have found their way into the set.txt file, over the past couple of months.

Need to think small for these last four.

.. And only a few days left to go before my "Get it sent to OUYA in time for them to review it" Monday Deadline..

Eeek!


I'm a Little Lemming
I walk around all day.
I hop over obstacles
that are within my way.

I dig so many tunnels
and build so many steps,
that I can carry onwards
to the level coming next..

Plays nicely.. Could do with some GUI tweaks, though!!

Tried making a platformer, today, but it didn't turn out very playable.
Tomorrow, I'll give it a little more time, and if nothing good emerges, I'll scrap it and do something else.
Would be nice to have a generic little platformer, but if I can't randomise it, there's no point..

Now you're done Jay, I'll post about my Advent Calendar Doo-dahs.

1. I've not been able to get an Advent Calendar this year - I've not deemed any crap enough, so less hilarity this Yuletide. This makes me very, very sad.

2. I can now mention my own Advent Calendar game.





It's my PixeLink game with 24 seasonal puzzles, wrapped up with an Advent Calendar styled front-end, with real opening doors (well, virtually)

Expect the first ghost at midnight. Err... It'll arrive on 31st november (or before), ready for the first door to be opened on 1st December.

Alpha Collexion submitted to OUYA for OUYA Review, along with the following message..


Hello, and welcome to my Advent Calendar.
Since it's important to have this game ready for Dec 1st, but also important to have you guys review it, and ALSO important to lock things before Dec, I've started by locking everything!

To unlock the games, for test/review purposes
REDACTED
You may use this "cheat" to unlock all the games, and give them all a proper testing before Dec 1st.

I'd much appreciate ASAP review, so that if there are any breakages, I can fix them up before Dec 1st.
It's taken me the majority of 2 months to do all this, so hopefully I've not fumbled anything along the way.

Good luck, enjoy, and I hope to hear back from you shortly.

Thanks, and Merry Xmas to all at OUYA!

Nice one Jay!

Hopefully OUYA will get their arses in gear and get it tested and up for download in plenty of time.

Daing! Now, there's some nice advent calendar games coming soon!

I'll have a go at doing something advent next year I think, way too late to start something off now

Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also!

Nah, it's not too late.. Back in 2010 I had the idea of an Advent Calendar about 3 or 4 days before 1st Dec!!!
Sure, people had to download each game individually, and it was utter bloody chaos trying to code the damn things, but it worked!!

...
And on Day 5, I randomly made a stupidly dull game with an orange ball and some craptastic looking "spikes"!!

So.. Um.. Yeah...

The game's out, and hopefully the unlock thingy works like it's supposed to! (*fingers crossed*!!!)
We'll find out on Dec 1st, I guess.

Interesting Fact
Although I was absolutely not planning this, and definitely didn't think it was going to happen.. .. Apparently it did!

From what I've been told, Alpha Collexion is the #1000th game on OUYA.
So, um...

\o/yeay\o/

Xmas Starts Here

[RESULT] At the very last minute I may have scored a new, crap Advent Calendar!!!

It's not likely to arrive before 1st December though, but it'll be here soon after. Let hilarity ensue!!
