Bugs and changes (and Hero Factory)

      Remember the game that I showed screenshots of? The game is in super alpha and lots of ideas haven't been implemented. But, the basic gameplay is there. Yet, bugs are popping up like crazy. With every single feature added, more bugs appear. Maybe it's how I structure the game's code I don't know. Thankfully, these bugs are usually solved quickly. But there's one bug that I can't solve. The player seems to glitch out after a pause and every attempt to solve this problem fails.

     I'm in Kuala Lumpur now and I can't work on the game but I'll be back on Wednesday. If I still can't solve the bug then, I'll have to redo the pause section of the game. Since the game is in super alpha, things can change. The main setting of the game has been scrapped and replaced. It's only a minor change and gameplay will stay as it is.

    In other news, I bought a Hero Factory figure! I was very hostile towards the Hero Factory toyline initially because it was HF that replaced Bionicle. But I gave it a chance and they are pretty cool. I like how armor is put on the figure, the setting of the story and the characters. But Hero Factory still falls short when compared to Bionicle in terms of storyline, figure structure and other stuff. But hey, it's unfair to compare it like that. Hero Factory is in it's own world and story. My only complain is that LEGO has severely reduced the piece count. According to their "tests", kids like less parts. I won't be surprised if one day, LEGO sets don't have to be assembled.

Holidays And Stuff

The holidays are here! 2 weeks of fun and action! Now that's school is out of the way but not the PMRs :(    . But hey, I can at least work on my projects.

    So, what am I doing? I'm developing for the iOS. I'm using an easy to use SDK (Software Development Kit) called GameSalad. It's quite similar to Game Maker with it's drag and drop interface and all except that GameSalad is still in beta and as you know with beta you get....... BUGS! Woohoo. Great.

My vid is finally finished! :D

Woohoo! I have finally finished my video! This video is my personal entry to Gamevil's Air Penguin Video Contest. Air Penguin is an awesome game on the iOS appstore. It was so popular it toppled Angry Birds as the #1 app in the whole appstore!

Here's the vid:




Let me know what you think k? :'D
Now time to spend the rest of my weekend before I become the emcee at my school's Teacher's Day celebration (deep breaths).

Mid Terms are here (again)

Okay, the mid term exams are here again. Time to crack the books. The ol' grind. Exam-a-geddon. Pow, bookslide. You get the idea. But as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Here:
