Progress + What I'm working On

Game

JUMP!

7 years ago

Hmmmm… It’s been a while since I’ve lasted posted here, so here’s a list of what I’ve added or changed since last time:

Added 2 new level packs
Added music for all level packs
Added the ability to test custom levels without leaving the editor
Improved the way level packs are imported
Added ~10 new tiles
Added a settings screen
Optimized the renderer
Fixed lots of rendering bugs

I’m currently working on handling errors. And I really hate doing that. You have to handle all the stupid things the user might do, like replacing the contents of a config file with the Bee move script or deleting the image folder. Thankfully, this is the last big thing that needs to bee done before I release the game.

And lastly, here’s a picture of one of the new level packs I’ve added.

See you in the next post, which will hopefully come out sooner that this one!
