That is the most awesome song ever!! No prizes for guessing which band I am referencing here, perhaps a little praise for liking one of the best bands EVER!!

Anyway, I am halfway to getting pushable blocks working in the Tomb Raider-ey game, and the player can stand on them!! A landmark in my game developing history. Well not really, but this is the first time it's sort of worked. There are still flaws, such as the player going through the block if it gets stuck, but that's easily fixable, except where the block gets stuck going up a SLOPE!! Gargh. I'll just need to fix the movement of the block.

I found this weird glitch, though, where the block floated around when you pressed the left/right keys, and if the player gets on it they can float around too, only if the player gets wedged between the block and the wall the block turns into a PLAYER!! so then I had two players moving around. I fixed that though.

The game I am also doing is similar to this, and the engine has the same sort of… roots, as the Tomb Raider-ey game stemmed from the development of Codegame.

Anyway, my main aims are to:

not only make a half-decent looking and playing game but…

optimise control for laptop users!;

make control easy, not a chore.

I will relish the day I finally release one of my, er, games to 64digits!! And I will make sure it is good.

AHHH YESSSSS!!!!!

The fruits of my labour.

I have managed to make pushable blocks like this so far…

player can land on blocks (without falling through!!);

blocks can be pushed left and right;

blocks stop at block_solid_obj , ocjects which make blocks solid when they collide;

blocks have gravity;

blocks….

HERE'S THE BIG ONE (for me anyway)…

THE BLOCKS CAN GO UP SLOPES!!

woo hoo!! Yeah awesome.

Some people don't need this but the environments in the game I want to create are not all square, they will be very unstable and varied in the y-axis, so I needed to do this!! WOO HOO!
