It's Game Time! Something's Fishy



It's been a little more than a week-don't judge me! I've finally got a releasable game completed. It's nothing much. In fact, it's a tutorial game (again, don't judge me). It satisfies the requirement of a playable game, with an objective and a way to die.

Essentially, you're playing as a sea horse, trying to collect food from little bubbles that are falling from the top. If you don't, you'll keep growing smaller and eventually die. You've also got some competition-there are other fish in the tank who will try to get to the food first. There aren't any points, or a timer or anything, but it is an interesting little game for about 60 seconds.

Anyway, enjoy!

An Ambitious Project


Today I'm starting a journey. I'm challenging myself to create one game every week for the next 2 months. That's 8 games in as many weeks. They're probably going to suck; that's not the point. The idea is to get practice finishing projects. My goal is to become a better programmer, who finishes projects I start. It's going to be tough, but I'm hoping that by publishing those games here it will keep me focused. Right now I'm optimistic about the project-we will see if I am in a few weeks.
