Hope you all are coming up with good ideas for the theme!<\/p>\n
I went with the simplicity of a tower defense game. It will be easy enough to program, perfect for a first LD.<\/p>\n
I had to rework a big chunk of my code a couple hours in, because I had daftly decided it would be cool to call the drawImage function for every single sprite on the screen inside my overridden paint function… Quite a disaster, and dumb. Much too slow. Now I have my render function handling the work before control is passed to the paint function, which is not throwing any errors! Yay for lack of red text!<\/p>\n
It’s okay Java, I still love you.<\/p>\n
I look forward to seeing what other people are coming up with tomorrow. With that, I bid you all good night, and good luck!<\/p>","time":"December 6th, 2014 2:10 am","title":"A good start!"}
