And there\u2019s a good reason!\u00a0 I spent at least 8 hours of yesterday stuck at one spot in the game \u2013 dealing with the + and \u2013 signs of camera position versus ship position (the ships are like individual tile maps, but those tile maps are placed in the world\u2026 kind of inspired by DrPetter\u2019s Swarming Of The Machines!) versus player position versus waterline.\u00a0 It is a trivial<\/em> problem, solved in the end by swapping some signs around and actually watching which way things move (or, more quickly, by drawing a simple diagram, which I never did).\u00a0 The reason I spent all day on it was that I was watching TV and not even trying to think about it.\u00a0 Just haphazardly flicking values every so often.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think I\u2019m very dedicated to this project.\u00a0 But I\u2019m gonna try some more today!<\/p>\n

Once I finally stopped TV for a second though, I nailed that and now I have Miyamoto running and jumping along a set of 3 boats, quite successfully.\u00a0 He has no animation, but whatever.\u00a0 I think I will add enemies and things you can stomp to sink the boats today.\u00a0 I\u2019m not feeling very pressured.\u00a0 The unofficialness is getting to me!<\/p>\n
