GitHub Releases for Shield Bearer and Bee-Flat

I've been focusing on my full time job, but I wanted to make a quick post to say that I made releases for Bee Flat and Shield Bearer.  They are for my Game Off 2019 Build of Bee Flat and my JS13K Games 2019 Build of Shield Bearer.  I hope to someday be able to return to those projects and make them better.

JS13K Games 2019 Day 30

Hmm...less than 34 hours to complete Shield Bearer for the contest.  Hopefully, tonight will be just like yesterday. Okay, let's get a Heads Up Display (HUD) going to display the player's current score and their Health Bar.  I wanted to get the score going first, so I looked up how to draw text using the HTML5 canvas context .  I then read up on the JavaScript classes , because I wanted to know if I could create a static class just to display the score.  I can: if I add the word "static" before the function in the class, it becomes a static function that can be called right from the class without creating an instance of that class.  I gave it a static draw() function, and made a few const variables to hold the color that I wanted for the text.  I then added it to my main draw() function to get the score to draw on the Canvas.  I had to change the x and y variables around to fully display the text, but I got it in an area that I like. Now, we need a...

More Game Off 2019 Prep

Hey, I just wanted to give a quick update as to what I've been up to recently.  I bought a Unity Book Bundle from Humble Bundle.  It had a Cookbook for Unity 2018, and had some videos on how to develop games using Unity and C#.  I don't know if I'll use it for the Game Off or not.  I will have to read into more, though. Jedulz also told me about glitch.com .  It is a collaborative web app developer tool, and that's pretty neat.  It runs a little bit like Google Docs.  However, it seems like it only works with the three Website Languages: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.  Which is great, if I wanted to create another game like Shield Bearer that you can play from the browser.  Since we have so many languages to choose from for this Game Jam, I'm having a difficult time figuring out which one I want to use.  I also love learning new programming languages, too!  Which is what is making this decision so hard: go with the tried and true...

Metroidvania Month 7 Day 3

Don't worry, there's no Metroidvania Month 7 Day 1 or 2.  It would have just been me telling you that I'm still working on a title.  I wish I could just start creating something, but GitHub wants me to name my repositories first before starting on my project.  I guess I could have created the files on my computer, but I hate the idea that my work could be lost without backups or commits that I can roll back in case I mess something up.  I could have also given this game a "Project Name", but I feel like I might accidentally create one that is better than the end product (see Project Scorpio and Project Revolution for example). Anyway, I came up with thirteen names for the game and ended up settling on Daemon . The game is about a robot that has gained sentience in a lab and now has to collect power-ups to help it escape.  Daemon, in computing , means a computer program that runs as a background process.  I felt the name could be fitting as the robot ...
