[ sjbrown @ 23:32 ] D-D-Done
Ok, so apparently win32 REALLY doesn't like changing the alpha level of things via Numeric. I had to change a function to basically make all the incremental changes and save it out to disk, making the win32 build zip 5megs (versus 1 meg for the source) 20 minutes left. Maybe I can add a background song...
[ sjbrown @ 18:49 ] making win32
making a win32 build. i hope to get some feedback from testers to see what i can do to make it more fun. after the build is made, it's sound time.
[ sjbrown @ 16:50 ] stressing out
crap.
I thought I'd have more time. Isn't it always the way? It's the last morning. I've got my coffee and bagel, and roughly 8 hours to go.
Plan:
2 hours: make water wheel spin, and make a "you win" screen
1 hour: make a win32 build and distribute to friends for their feedback.
2 hours: make at least 2 more game modes - it needs more of a "challenge" feel. Right now it's too relaxing.
2 hours: sounds. right now it has none.
1 hour: emergencies

[ sjbrown @ 07:31 ] Day ...?
So ... tired...
Had a crazy day making new graphics and tweaking some of the gameplay. Only 16 hours to finish it up.

[ sjbrown @ 05:22 ] Day 4
I was waylaid this morning unfortunately, so I again didn't get as much finished as I had wanted. But luckily there was a post on the Mailing List about changing the alpha values using surfarray which was exactly what i was looking for. As an extra treat, I've uploaded a tar.gz with my current revision of the code.

[ sjbrown @ 02:53 ] Day 3 progress
Didn't get as much done today as i had hoped. Sounds still haven't started. I blame my cold. Stupid sinuses. I will set you on fire with curry.
Some more logic got done. The only thing left on the logic side is the "store" -- ability to buy new power sources - fire, solar, etc.
That should leave Thurs and Friday for improving the graphics, adding sounds, and finding bugs. Also multiplayer mode if there's time.

[ sjbrown @ 03:33 ] Night 2
Allright, I spent some time at the cafe on the cursor-chasing interface that makes the heating element warm up.
Then tonight, I worked up some graphics in Inkscape (www.inkscape.org) and dropped those in. I also fleshed out the Bladder object. No steam spraying yet, though.

[ sjbrown @ 03:47 ] jet plane
Got back home after a trip to Vancouver this weekend. Thought about game design today. Scratched ideas:
* stranded on an island with rudimentary steam power components. win by signaling for rescue, escaping on a raft, or building a sustainable civilization
* tea shop sim
Final idea: rainbow maintenance.

[ sjbrown @ 21:30 ] Shout outs
Hi all. Looking forward to competing. I probably won't be online until the first Monday, so if anyone wants a latecomer in their team, I might be interested.
