I’ve been gameplay-“complete” for a while now. I just need to make the final push to get the game polished, tweaked and adjusted, which is usually the bit I like to come back to after a few days. No such luxury here.<\/p>\n

the player controls the lavender-coloured particle-emitting square using the arrow keys. Movement is slidy — you keep moving until you hit something, be it a white square (a stationary obstacle), a blue pickup (adds seconds to the counter when collided with, vanishes, slides across the screen) or a yellow pickup (adds to the score). The numbers in the centre of the screen are time left and score. Time starts at 10.<\/p>\n

Hopefully you get the idea. I’d love suggestions, not that there’s time to implement them. I definitely need to fix the pickup-spawning function, which is only spawning on the left and top sides of the screen.<\/p>\n

Looking forward to seeing other people’s submissions!<\/p>","time":"August 25th, 2013 3:40 am","title":"everyone else\u2019s game is better than mine"}
