Competitive

This is just how competitive the older style gamers actually can get over their different games. The way video games worked back in the early 80's I think allows them to be more compettive and die hard about gaming. These days people can spend 12 hours playing but they are at home. Then, these people actually had to go out to an arcade and spend their day there. I feel that this meant that they might have even more passion about games then people now may have.

Just been coding

So I've finally been making some progress on my game. It is not exactly turning out the way I had originally planned, but do to some coding issues and the difficulty aspect (and the fact I'm working by myself) I made a few changes to make it easier. It is looking pretty good overall and I'm just happy I'm getting things to work. Hopefully I can make some more progress to get at least a full first level together before the end of the semester.

Flash is a Pain

So after making some progress last week, finally getting my character to stay in the areas I want him too. Now, i tried to code my bad guy to chase him and everything went to pieces. I realized at first that my layers in Flash were not set up properly or things were in the wrong place. Anyway that confused me. Then when I tried to start over and move everything into a new window none of the scales were right, so I had to try to redo all that and then I still couldn't figure out what was wrong with the layers and that threw me off even more. By the end of only an hour I was ready to break the computer, which is usually something that doesn't happen to me. So I needed to take a break and thought I'd write it down for this blog.
