Day 10: Decided to shelf game project for now in favour of an IGU Fall Jam entry. The concept is "You are the monster" and I've got an idea based on Filipino mythology...

@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 9: Not much today. Added a tileset and thought about trying wavefunction collapse.

@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 8: Decided to go with a Jetpack Joyride movement style

@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 7: Managed to get the keybinds working, hopefully this code helps other avoid losing hours on this like I did
@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 6: Figured out an exciting new way the keybinds in my game can break. Need to fix the error in my plugin, too.
@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 5, again:
Mouse Potato here.
It turns out gravity is really tricky to do well, especially when adding a jetpack to the mix.
The solution? Turn off gravity. It's just holding you down anyway.
The entire game now takes place in outer space.
Mouse out.
@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 4: Tried making some concept art. Too tired to write alt text right now
@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 3: Set up a local git repo today. No remote, just local with a separate backup system.
If it's stupid but it works...

@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 2: Can you guess what caused this to happen? Will fix this tomorrow.
@mouse-potato-is-on.bsky.socialDay 1: Decided to not implement some stuff that would make the game boring such as a jetpack fuel limit (would take away attention from killing aliens) or laser travel speed (since light travels at the speed of yes).
