1) I have had Game#2 translated into Welsh as it's a place I love to spend time and as a nod to half of my family coming from South Wales.

If you only have 500 words or less to be translated, you can have this done for free by the Welsh Government service - Helo Blod ....

Today: Going through returned translations for text in Game#2. I find it fun seeing how things are phrased differently in other languages.

Favourite word so far has to be squid in German : TINTENFISCH!

Saw Northern Doom purveyors Paradise Lost last night in Wolverhampton - brilliant show, they are always a class act.

Getting much closer to game#2 completion now - it's basically done (bar a couple bugs) and undergoing polish, balancing and then I need to finish the translation and Steam integration.

Still hoping to have it done this year .... let's see!

Just a reminder that this retro shooter game is awesome and a bargain. Support a lovely indie dev and have a great time - go on! Oh, and leave a review if you like it!

Let's get it >10 reviews - it deserves it! #steam #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev
Shout out to a game I discovered rather late, by an indie developer who is a top bloke. Give this a go if you like 80s style (C64) shooters with modern polish. Be warned: do NOT play if sensitive to flashing lights!

Finally got to see one of the finest of Canadian exports - 3 Inches Of Blood at the Asylum, Birmingham. Great show, super tight playing. Hope they come around to the UK again.

1) Switching to doing a "simpler" (hahahaha!) game has helped me learn a little more. For instance, I was handling 2D sounds and AudioMixers slightly incorrectly.

While learning from YouTube videos is useful, they don't always give you the exact use case you are after.

My first steam game ISLANDS & TRAINS has just released!! What began as a tiny hobby project has grown into something that I'm so thankful, excited and proud of.

It would mean the world if you could give this a repost and try the game on Steam 💌🌻 s.team/a/1957760

There is currently an issue with the UK Met Office API which can result in a failure to retrieve a weather forecast in Compu-Tron x3000. I have raised a support ticket with the Met Office and I am awaiting a reply. Other users of this data have also reported the same issue.

It really is a great game. If you enjoy classic point and click games from Lucasarts, you will like this.

Progress on game#2 today:
- Animated tiles created and added to cut-scence 1 and 2
- Second cut-scene artwork and dialogue completed
- Update to enemy spawner: now shows an animated spawn point indicator for X seconds before enemy is spawned
