I’ve got a progress update.

There’s not too much to report, but I have the following:

• Beginnings of a tileset (The Mini-LD will only have one)
• Graphics for the player’s human form
• Code generator for embedded images and level files
• Part of the first area
• Classes for game actors and the game world

It’s not a huge amount, but it’s a start, especially considering that I’m only a few hours in.

I’m happy with my character’s design and general look I have for the game. Once I have something working, I’ll happily share a screenshot.

Very happy with progress so far. Though I was feeling a bit discouraged at first, I’m happy that I stuck with this idea. I’m really feeling good about this.

I’m perfectly ready to fail, of course, but hopefully that won’t happen.

Peace, love, and XML,
