Yeps. Will try to get a bit of sleep now (a little bit, not too much!), before going at it again tomorrow. I\u2019ve managed to put in a number of things for one day and I guess I should be pleased. Haven\u2019t spent my time very efficiently but I never do. Done maybe 6 hours of work in total so far.<\/p>\n

So what I have to work with for tomorrow is this little placeholder guy able to walk 8-directionally and jump\/fall on an isometric map. All that\u2019s left of the groundwork is to size the level up, make it scroll and put in some animation code. Then we proceed to game stuff and graphics\/audio.<\/p>\n

Preparing for the compo I intended to focus primarily on the gameplay and objectives this time around, before doing anything too technical or diving into graphics. So far\u2026 no. Will have to keep reminding myself tomorrow that priority #1 is to get it playable and fun if possible. But then again\u2026 if it\u2019s still crap when I only have 5-6 hours left I\u2019ll probably leave it like that and make some snazzy gfx anyway, \u2019cause pretty crap beats crappy crap!<\/p>\n
