I started the new year off by getting back to my weekly gamedev streams. My original plan for this weekend was to work on my long term project, but I ran into issues even getting it to run, and rather than fight with that on stream, I pulled out my LD34 project, CentiSnake, and started adding some of the items that feedback had indicated would be good changes.

I’m already very close to having the first of those new features added: Custom color controls, allowing gamers to pick the precise color they would prefer. All that remains for that feature is to get it to save the value between play sessions.

I’m also going to add a volume slider, the ability to toggle the retro-CRT effect off, a help screen before new games start, and I’m going to clean up the sounds and graphics a bit more.

I’m excited to see what my actual scores were, and how I ranked, especially since this was my first ever game jam, and only my second game project at all.
