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.

Hacktoberfest 2019 Day 8

Image
It's been a few days since I tried to contribute anything to the Hackoberfest this year, but I think I found a decent project for my last Pull Request: Super Tiny Icons .  It's a collection of logos made using Scalable Vector Graphics , with the goal of each logo being under 1 KB. I originally was going to create the logo for Kotlin Programming Language , but then I saw this "issue" where they requested the Microsoft logo .  I'm surprised no one took it!  The latest Microsoft logo is just four squares with a solid color for each square !  With such a simple request, I forked the project and got to work! I wanted to hand code it, because Inkscape made my shrub for Jedulz's game super huge.  It ended up being smaller to just export as a PNG.  Since I've never hand coded an SVG, I searched the internet and found this guide to hard coding an SVG . After reading that guide, it seemed appropriate to download the the PNG of the Microsoft logo and take so...

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 ...

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...
