Mind Poke - November 2022 This Month's Words
Your TaskYou have until the end of the month to do something creative using the words above.You can do anything you'd like. Draw a picture, take a photo, write a poem, make a game, compose a tune, film a video. Literally anything, as long as it's creative (and as Safe-For-Work as is possible!) Be creative, and add it to the thread of creativity. Be as inspired as you can from the list of words. You may use as few or as many of the words as you'd like, within your creativity, and can post as many things as you wish throughout the month. There are an additional set of ideas, below, automatically generated from the list of words, which may or may not provide additional inspiration. Let the Mind Poke inspire you. When you post anything creative to the thread, be sure to leave an inspirational word, which will be gathered and used for next month's Mind Poke. Will there be voting, and a "Winner"? Possibly. But only if YOU make it worthwhile, by showing your creativity. Videogame Ideas | Image Ideas | Game Title Ideas Three AI Generated Videogame IdeasThe year is 20xx and the world is in peril. A mad scientist has created a serum that turns people into snot monsters, and it's up to you to stop him! You'll have to use your quick reflexes to dodge the creatures' attacks and shoot them down before they can reach you. But be careful – if you shoot them too many times, they'll explode and release a shower of bloodcurdling particles! Can you save the world from this horrifying fate?-=-=- You play as a private investigator who has been hired to solve a series of murders. The victims all have snot on their face, and cake crumbs around their bodies. The police have no leads, so it's up to you to figure out who is behind these bloodcurdling crimes. -=-=- A retro videogame about a mad scientist who creates a serum that turns people into zombies. The player must report to the authorities about the mad scientist's activities, and stop him before he creates more zombies. Along the way, the player must battle hordes of zombies, and solve puzzles to progress. The game is set in a dark and atmospheric world, and features bloodcurdling zombies and eerie music. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Those AI generated ideas are pretty good this time around, the first one feels kinda robotronny to me

Ugh.. Still haven't made a start on this yet. I have a vague idea in mind, but between trying to get SpikeVent ready, and the new puzzle site, I just haven't had any time. ... Though, if I hadn't played about 12 hours of No Man's Sky this week, that may also have helped... -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

I ended up spending this weeknd sewing, gymming and enjoying the Formula 1 and making big mac boigers from as close to scratch as I like. Pro tip, homemade burger sauce: 2 tbsp ketchup 2 tbsp mustard 6 tbsp mayo 1 tbsp picalilli Half a red onion cut into fine cubes Salt Pepper mix it all together in a lil bowl and boom, the finest big mac sauce, nyom! Does that count for metabolising? Sorta? add some green food colouring and it'd probably look like snot, ha!

I had hoped to do a little something in code for this one. But not looking likely right now.

Add some simple enemies maybe, when you hit em, their corpse stays on screen for a while, hit it again and it explodes in 4 ways at you. The electrodes move left to right and fire with a slight warning. At least, that's the idea. There's cake which you can collect in a certain order to gain more points, the faslhing green and red one would enable a score multiplier of some sort.

I've tried and failed to make 2 games called "Capsulises Cake", but each time it's ended up feeling like a NeonPlat clone.. I might try again, tomorrow, but .. Honestly.. Grrr... My mind just isn't coding well, lately. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

I seem to be sewing more than coding of late, away from work that is. Will see if I can translate that screen over to the NES tonight though I reckon, before I start on Winbee's hoodie cosplay.  Mainly to go with the jeggings I made this week, process pics below. www.instagram.com/p/ClDQ5Yxt5F3/ -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also! |

Well, the sprites are readied in my sprite editor of choice, I doubt I'll be near complete in any which way by the end of the month but I'll see how Wed  day goes I guess, gonna have the coffee machine on standby!Essentially, don't expect anything polished, it's going to be a crazy day of ASM

I created a character for a game idea I have. Meet "Snot" -  Yep, he's a sticky booger. He'll travel around the screen turning blocks green and rescuing little snotlings. Well, that's the idea... That's probably about as much as we'll see this year. |

I want to get faster at making NES games and this seems to be a good way to go about it! Snot looks really cool

I'll be making it way easier over time, well, little time View on YouTube If I add slower enemies in there also then , well, sure, it's not any easier but it'll add some variety at least. -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also! |

Changed the player into a more animateable lil blocky fella. Gonna call it quits for tonight and figure out how to contain these enemies randomness a bit more tomorrow. Perhaps if they hit a border wall they should adjust their target position again or maybe just return to the centre with an element of rng applied, it could make things a bit more wave based. Half the speed of the enemies as a whole for an easy mode perhaps, but that'll likely stretch into December. But yeah, overall, I'm fairly happy with the progress made today. For those of you who are curious 10873 / 32768 bytes have been used and 8192 of that 10873 is just for graphics which I can't opt out from using for that, there might be a game loop ready over the weekend but I doubt I'll have time for a soundtrack although, the ai generator Jay posted a lil while might be handy for some inspiration perhaps. -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also! |

One way I've found for adding randomness. Give each enemy a targetX,targetY variable, and at random intervals set it to PlayerX+rnd(),PlayerY+rnd(), then aim for that instead of directly towards the player. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
