I had the good fortune of being trapped in the house due to a blizzard today, so all of my classes were cancelled! This proved to be both a blessing and a curse. Since I had a large block of unanticipated free time, I went to town on revamping the UI in Skybrawler. I started at about noon, and I didn't realize how long I had been working until I checked the clock and saw that it was 9:00pm. So now I'm quite behind on my work for class tomorrow, but that's okay; I have a damn shiny new UI to show for it!

Awesome. That looks like a solid revamp of the old one; easier to read quickly and more neatly organized.
ReplyDeleteNINE HOURS SHMINE HOURS, I say.
Many of those hours were actually spent re-doing my old code. I looked back at the crappy job I had done and almost vomited.
ReplyDeleteI also found a critical bug that was causing the game to not even load on some computers. WOOHOO!
I just played through the newest version. Super awesome, though the cactoid didn't damage me when I punched it and it was spikey.
ReplyDeleteCURSE YOU CACTOOOOOID
Yep yep, there's a ton of stuff under construction, so there are lot of awkward invisible walls and missing chunks of stuff. And yeah, I fixed the Cactogon bug right after I uploaded that executable.
ReplyDeleteCURSE YOU CACTOGOOOOOON!
And curse Final Fantasy for stealing the name Cactoid before I came up with it.
