; Hello World


You know those mornings when you really have to do a newsletter, but your fingers are still half asleep, so don't quite hit the keys that they're aiming for?
..
That!
..

Or maybe I'm getting too old for mornings!

This week's Newsletter is entirely unplanned, so .. anything could happen!

This week, I've been making NeonPlat Adventures.
Taking the basic frame of NeonPlat, and squishing it together with the original Super Mario Land game, appears to be having somewhat of a kick-ass effect on the gameplay.

After only 5 days of coding, I've got a great little playable game up and running.

Still 2 months to go, though!
Yikes!!

I'm not used to slow development!

(AGameAWeek isn't usually in here, but I forgot to do my AskTwitter thing last night, so plonked this in it's place!)

; Gosub : The Next Generation

So long as my site doesn't run at 20% cpu, like.. say.. um.. Twitter.. then I'm perfectly ok with how the HTML looks.

; MySQL Quirks

Or rather, not so much Quirks, more "Why is this more awkward than it should be?"

; Win8 Shoutyness

Lots of ranting and occasionally a bit of raving about Windows 8

Goes directly to Jail.

You might've noticed that I missed out on the PMC stuff, last week.
I would've added it, except that the name/topic of last week's newsletter was "Worst Newsletter, EVER!!", and .. well.. It just didn't seem very appropriate!

; Introductions

Post about yourself!
It's PMC's very own super-happy hello topic!

; Life Just Bounces

A nice little breakout style game without a Paddle.
Not entirely sure what's going on with that "x2!" thing, seems entirely random, but other than that it's a decent idea.

Shoot yourself between stars, and try to stay alive.
Awesome game idea!

; Decent idea

Bad choice of picture to show it off, but otherwise it seems to work ok.
In addition, there's a bonus "Possibly useful site I'd never previously heard of" link, contained within.

A glorious error. Text for a Ladies Beauty Trimmer ends up in the press release for James Martin's Electric Knife.

I'm sure there's a perfectly rational explanation for why this exists.
I don't know what that is.
