I spent today trying to knock together a very basic platformer using a .png file to store the levels… in C. As a result it took me the whole day and I achieved nothing. Not sure what I’ll do tomorrow. I still want to make the same basic game but there’s no way this source is going anywhere in 24 hours. I suspect I’ll end up doing the same thing, but on a much much simpler scale, which uses a large pixel grid for the levels, not the “one px of the file is one px on the screen” approach I’m currently taking. Some of the code can be salvaged but not much… If I start running out of time the game will become a jam game for lazy reasons, but I hope it doesn’t come to that.<\/p>\n

Wish me luck.<\/p>","time":"December 17th, 2011 3:28 pm","title":"The Disaster"}
