https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B_dqefSUwAERJqZ.png Day 1: Movement You can move your spacely ship around the map now. I've fixed the issues, but the busted version where your ship just goes wherever it wants and you have to refresh afterward is more fun. You can't tell, but I've also implemented zoom....

There was a game by Mattgamerr back in the day that did exactly that. I forget the name of it, but it was the one big one he did where the world was split into floating islands or something. This was pre-plotscripting, so he had to make it so that bosses could only be approached from one angle so th...

Logically I went to the hotel to sleep, but none of the sleep related options were selectable since they all told me I had too little energy to proceed with the action selected. I guess I was too sleepy to sleep. This is probably a minor fix but I decided not to attempt the game a third time since ...

The ballots are finally in: my entry to the 2014 7DRL (seven-day roguelike) contest came in 5th place out of 134 entries . Not bad at all! I could have sworn I mentioned it here at some point. If you haven't played it yet, you should . The game's unique mechanics and adjustable difficulty ensure tha...

You had me worried that I missed a rule here.

Not while I'm around. Despite my disappointments with how this game turned out (notably, I aimed to create a noodle dating sim and ended up creating a dating sim with noodles), there are a few things I really like about this game: The first two minutes of the game are exactly what I wanted. The mus...

A terrible crime rocks a small town and the cops seriously can't figure it out at all. When a mysterious stranger comes to town with a device that allows you to go up inside someone's mind, a rookie cop jumps at the chance to play the hero. Unfortunately he ends up connecting his brain not to a sus...

Noodle conversation is finished. I would've liked for it to be more robust, but it's pretty good for what it is. That means I've got tomorrow to work on the actual dating part of the dating sim, which is a woefully inadequate schedule for what should be a very central mechanic. Oh well. I can't say ...

Could it be a difference in the "Allow Gameplay And Scripts" bitset? I believe that menus you create in custom have that bit default to OFF, but menus you create in a script have it default to ON Yes, I realized that in the car on the way to work today. It's unintuitive that this is separ...

Hm, so there is. But I never set it for my other menus.

At least my problem is solved

I'm not sure if this is something I'm doing wrong or an engine bug. Scenario 1: I create a menu in CUSTOM and disable the cancel button. When I access that menu in GAME, the cancel button has no effect. Scenario 2: I create a menu in a plotscript: m := create menu set menu bit(m, men...

You can't interact with the eligible noodles yet, but The Noodle Within is almost complete otherwise.

So, you know, now it's just missing the central feature.

Very cool. Other moves that I would suggest because they will make the game more fun: Heel kick: Like Chun Li's bounce move or Link's downslash. Later Castlevania games implemented this as a move that makes you fall faster and at an angle. They also reset your double-jump when you bounced off an ene...

Thanks! I appreciate the fast turnaround. The current script error level setting just doesn't work: we can't really add additional script errors because they'll start appearing all over the place in existing games, especially since we encouraged people to turn on script errors. Need to switch to &qu...

This is what I mean by the old behavior: set hero picture(0, 1, spritetype:portrait) sets the hero's walkabout set to 1, and get hero picture(0, spritetype:portrait) returns the hero's walkabout set, at least as of Beelzebufo. Has this been fixed in the nightlies? The invalid "spritetype:portra...
