Once again time for me to break my usual summer silence on projects!

Randy Learns History

It's a big one, and why I haven't really been posting any small game projects this year. Been going quite well, and I'm sure it'll be a breezy hour playing through it, but being an adventure game it's just a lotta dev! A lotta dev I don't wanna share too much of, too!

"Aaaah, double entendre! Smooth." -Randy

I also started work on my first minigame for the game recently which is pretty cool. Gonna mix n' match adventure gaming with the "activity center" gameplay of the first game!

Town With No Name rewrite

This one's just silly. Thanks to the help of The Cutting Room Floor Wiki and @HorseFolder I figured out how to rip sprites from Delta 4 Interactive games like Town with No Name. For those who don't know, Delta 4 Interactive was formed by some British school kids havin' fun and messing around makin' awesome B-games, and they got their Commodore CDTV creations published back in the day. Not only have I been helping a lil' with the wiki page for Town with No Name over on TCRF, but I've also started on a little remaster project for the game, as it's finicky to emulate and is prime material for tons of quality of life changes (that I wanna make so you can turn them off :P) that'll make it a more accessible and less frustrating experience. 'Cuz it's a funny game!

An example of the framework I've been making for the game and placeholder pausing/unpausing ability. The framework is similar to how the primitive engine the original game used (D.U.N.E) worked so it'll be easier to string the game together.

An example of the subtitles system. How's this font look?

Will it come to Newgrounds??

Probably not as I didn't "make" the game lol.

Miniparse

Urrrghhhh I don't like working in Flash as much anymore. I talked about this project in a previous news post but Miniparse was gonna be a little tool to make simple Flash point and clicks in, which you could share to NG via User Creations.

Not sure what the fate of this project is yet, but I haven't been working on it.

In Closing

Hey that's a much more manageable amount of active projects! Makes for a much more digestible news post too.

COOKIEBUN, OUT!
