in my current program, you recruit allies via prison cells in this "abandoned" jail.

Good things happening. Arrays + sprite collision = very handy for issuing commands to numerous sprites.

Made a function that a sprite will follow the exact path of the target to move by writing a string with button inputs and reading each of them as the x,y destination of sprite. This will be handy....

Demo is up! Key: 2R5NW3NJ

Might release a demo tomorrow... keep your eyes out

*formal announcement of my contest entry* Alright y'all, in the game for the flight contest entry, you pilot a plane to dodge unending waves of birds. Score is determined by how long you go without hitting a bird. The core of the game is completed, but I'm gonna add unlockables and stuff because the contest still has a way to go...

woop woop I've successfully used DATA strings to place sprites wherever I want! It was actually pretty easy to do and more practical than trying to randomize location like I did before

well... that wasn't what I was going for

Randomly spawning clouds across the x axis in -y axis and having them scroll down was way more trouble than it needed to be

I now have a moving plane and background. Now I need randomly generated birds and clouds, and a scoring system and my contest entry is basically complete lol

off to a good start lol

I'm better at drawing sprites than I give myself credit for... anyways, I'm taking a break from my rpg to try the programming contest.

sneek peek at boss sprites

does it look like an open book?

its getting there...

a simple battle mechanic in the front end, fairly complex code in the back end...(at least, I think it is)

Why does the variable X reset its value upon returning to DEF Morale, whereas other variables retain their value (such as N)?

Creating this text-based adventure to practice writing DEFs. Already created a simple one that prints out items in your inventory... so far so good.

I wrote a brief chapter-by-chapter summary of my rpg. It'll be ~12 chapters. Here's the prologue. It's not very descrptive though

Like many others, I'm making an rpg. We'll see where this goes
