All the small things
After a long hiatus things are back on track. Started this week by fixing up the website and GitHub page for the project. Not much new but added some info, images and video to make it a better presentation.
Rest of week was spent on fixing minor issues found on the Trello TODO list. It is strange how fast you loose track of a project/code structure, and equally interesting how quickly you get back on track. I've found over the years that it is a good method to start doing some small things that are easy to fix in order to get back up to speed. It gives you a nice flow of looking over the project and, as you don't recall exactly how everything is structured, you take the time to do proper fixes. It is also good to be reminded that properly commented code is always useful, even if you are the only member of the team! Thank you past me, present me will make sure to return the favor to future me.
About
Hive P v. S is a mashup of classic arcade games. You fly around collecting stars, each star collected spawn an entity that forms a tail that gets longer and longer. Avoid the tail for as long as possible until you get a power up that gives you a limited time to destroy the tail. If successful you'll get bonus points and new stars are spawned. Rinse and repeat.
When the final score is high enough, you'll get the opportunity to submit the score to the high score table. The high score table is saved on Hive and is viewable on Hive as well as in-game for all users.
Game will be released for browsers, as a PWA and as native builds for mobile and computer platforms.
