Writing a probable 20 step tutorial on building a c64 game. Hopefully something that I finally complete again.

Started writing an audio engine two days ago but needed to get an organic animator operative for a friend. The audio engine took all day yesterday to get to compile, which was a slowdown since it's in the same code base.

I know the feeling, I seem to always lose interest in projects as soon as it gets to menus... tedious stuff... |

I like programming and drawing menus. It's fun.  |

I still haven't done the projectiles. The collision system is for the first time actually going to trigger events, and I realized that I really needed to put in collision bitmasks to filter the uninteresting contacts, so I just added those, and at the same time did a refactor of the instantiation process:
When adding tags with hooks - like the collision ones - on entities, they're implicitly parameterized by global variables that you set before building the entity. (I decided the alternative - pass in data on every tag addition - is uglier and more confusing in the average case, since most tags are not "special," have no need for additional data, and there's a lack of clarity on how the data reaches the hook functions.) So today I cleaned it up from a bazillion collision globals(x/y/w/h/hspeed/vspeed/etc.) into one object, which lowers the likelihood of me screwing it up and spawning things with tainted initialization values.
Maybe now I can spawn the projectiles. Maybe.

A graphics program, but specifically a perspective matrix creator and something to detect break angles to render hard/soft edges separately on a gouraud-esque per vertex shader.

Some more classes for data structures and mixings between them to ease my less logic-intensive but heavily massdata-based operations. Did I say I love pushing memory from a to b?

Refactoring some engine code in unity. Wanted to make it neater, but made it a lot messier, was spending ages chasing down runtime errors. Back to the drawing-board, and now I'm reimplementing. Fingers crossed   |

Refactoring my own code from a year ago that was a rush job, but a successful game.
The issue is that I've got chunks of code that are never touched, making me wonder what the fuck I was thinking.

True Type Fonts in openGL. I can't believe writing text on the screen is so difficulty.

It's that load of hacks that keeps the game together So game states, NPC states, buttons that do things, items... this time I was developing two game modes: one where you draw things, and one where you lead your soldiers in a RTS fashion. but actually I ended fighting with C++ to make the level serialization  |
