Hello World


What a crazy week it's been in the world of JSE.
I should really be fixing those final few bugs, but instead found myself farting about with completely trivial matters.
Last week I added some basic echo functionality, so this week I matched it with some glitchy/noise/scanline additions for the overall look of the thing.
These aren't the things I'm supposed to be focusing on, especially when there's still that damn Minus bug to fix up, as well as the other twenty of so unfixed bugs that I have in my todo list.

Oh, and I bought yet another Domain Name, and grabbed the matching Twitter account, because.. Apparently I like collecting those. *shrugs*

You can now GotoJSE.com and do all your coding there.
Hurray!

I now need to focus a little more, fix those bugs, get Functions and Types working, and then.. .. maybe then.. have a bit of a rest and try making a bunch of games, instead.

..I also wrote an importer tool to import images into the Symbol Editor.
(You'd be amazed how much of my Knitting tool got reused to do that bit!)

Amazon Lumberjack goes OpenSource

I'm not sure if it's "Everything", or if they held back a few bits and pieces, but a nice AAA-quality 3D game engine is now opensource and free for the taking.

GameMaker Timeless Trial

One of the biggest complaints about GameMaker's Timed Trial is that it eventually runs out, just as you're getting around to properly trying it out.
No more!
The time limit has now been removed.

Lockdown Ends?

The countdown is on for the end of Lockdown, with a lot of "I got the two jab, so I'm fine, fuck the rest of you" rules being put in place.
If you've had the two-jabs, you're no longer going to have to isolate. Just catch it and spread it around..
You'll be fine.
If anyone else catches it off you, then it's their own stupid fault for not having got the two jabs themselves.

The world returns to normality in the coming weeks.
Good luck, everybody!!

And wear a mask.

New Switch Kinda

With rumours abound that Nintendo had troubles sourcing components for a sooped up Switch, they appear to have given up hope of ever launching it, and have instead simply unveiled "Switch OLED"..
The same Switch with the only new bit they could actually manage to get hold of.
