<\/p>\n After losing several hours of work due to a hard drive hiccup ( annoyingly while I was backing up the code to SVN at the time ) I won’t be able to finish this within the 48 hours.. I can’t even release anything just now as it’s currently very broken. <\/p>\n
The code I lost was most of the refactored state machine – which worked properly! So I’ve been having to rewrite that again, and it’s not pretty.. specially seeing as it’s not working as well as it was.
\n I shall be continuing this throughout the week when I get back from work, so I’m hoping to have it finished by the end of the week.. though if I was to restart it, I’d be writing an actual pixel detection routine as this tilecheck system is just hideous!<\/p>\n
Once it’s done, I’ll write up a post mortem of what went right, and what shot me in the bum. That’s it just now.. as a warm up to LD15, it’s highlighted a few issues that I’ll need to resolve to take part properly… but it’s been fun anyway Tags: little quirks<\/a>, unfinished<\/a><\/p>","time":"July 26th, 2009 3:41 pm","title":"And it\u2019s going to be late\u2026"}
\n Here’s a picture of it’s current state ( clicky for full screen ):

\n That’s 256 Quirks running around a screen area of 1024×768.. it’s now got a dynamic playfield so if you set the config file to any ( reasonable ) resolution, it’ll create a playfield big enough for you.<\/p>\n
\n Apologies that I couldn’t finish in time, but I’ve had a lot of good feedback from this so far, so I’ll try get it done throughout the week.<\/p>\n \n
