Today's game is a generic "blow shit up", chain-reaction type thing, with circles of explosions hitting each other.
Nothing major, just a quicky to help keep the pace of making these bloody things!!!!

Looks very NES. Which is a good thing, guessing it plays like the balloon trip mode in balloon fight?

... Maybe tonight?

Oh, god, look how far behind I am!!
I was hoping to make a seperate Halloween game, so momentarily drifted away from the Advent collection, only to wind up having a ton of crap happen at home, and it's all slipped away!!

Right.. Back to coding the Advent. Ignore everything else. I can catch up later..
Tonight I made a version of Orc Attack.


... I need to keep up that pace, for practically the rest of the time remaining, now. Erk!!!!

Still not happy with the bland uninteresting "gfx by" thing in the corner. Thinking of suping it up a big, to be more noticable.

Maybe Add a coloured semi-opaque box around it perhaps?

Gave up with the "Flash" and opted for "DrawOval()" instead
Lazy man's flash!!

Thanks, but no thanks.. It's all coding from here onwards.
I just have to urge myself to actually do something :/

Hmm, **wanders what sort of game that would be there**

Is it a shoe-tem-up ?

M is half incomplete, and needs loads more work to get it up to a decent playable status. (stupid AI.. grrr) But is pretty much going to be exactly what you see here.

W, meanwhile, is more like this.


More to come, rush rush rush!!!

Cool stuff, I love me some space blasters!

The top one reminds me of an old game I loved on my C16 called Icicle Works. It was a christmassy boulder dash clone. But I'd never played Boulder Dash back then

You can do it

Naming the collection..

For a while, I've been struggling to come up with a single word for this collection.
I've been trying to avoid using the name Advent, or Xmas, or anything related to December or things like that.

The word "Collection" is comstantly in my head, and I've been playing with ideas with it, but nothing seems to be slotting nicely into place, yet.

Each game has a two word title, with each word starting with the same letter, going in alphabetical order, so I'm currently thinking that the collection should have a similar sort of branding.

I'd like an X to be in there, to vaguely symbolise Xmas, but whether I choose to go with ColleXion or Xollection is still up in the air.

"Something Xollection" or "Something ColleXion"

"Alpha Xollection/ColleXion" is my current goto title. Can anyone come up with anything better?
