I've been working on a bunch of different things here and there. I don't really have anything that's close to being finished. To start off:

My Bluetooth Dongle:

A project I started on a while ago. I was going to let it die but I think I'll keep working on it. There's some more stuff that I want to try out. Check out my USB post on Cemetech for more info. The original post was on TIPlanet, however I won't be attending the MakerFaire.

Cydia Exiled:

I finished the world map and replaced the sprite routines partially with my HyperSprite routines. It moves about twice as fast.

I increased the speed in the Mario background routines but I can't find a way to get rid of flicker. I tried pausing the refresh buffer but the calc can't write fast enough for it to do any good. (Tested it on Pacman) I think the only way to eliminate flicker is to use page swapping which I can't use for some games. In Jumper I jack up the screens framerate to make the game look smoother but dropping the framerate makes a game look worse, almost equivalent to pausing the refresh. I created a new level design for Code Zombie, I have to go with a solid floor for an acceptable speed. It looks boring, I know. I'll probably throw some stuff on the walls and modify the doors. The game will probably flicker because the way I want the level to work, if its horrendous, I can change it up. The last game is mini-golf, I haven't done anything to it yet (it should've been a simple game), I know I have to fix the border reading and hole reading and a lot of other stuff. I don't understand how it could find the border sometimes but not always, and NEVER find the hole. Its got major issues. The levels will be changed to match the ones for the OUYA version, I might rewrite the whole thing.

I just haven't been focusing lately. My mind wanders about and I move from project to project without getting anything (major) done.

I know this is adding to my list of unfinished projects, but I'm going to put up a video of MiniGolf, my unfinished entry for Cemetech's lightning contest. Mario and Code Zombie will be completed before this gets any progress but I am working on a line and vector routines right now (vector routines ripped/modified from an old Spectrum game).

Here's a mockup of the game coming out after Jumper and Mario. Its called Code Zombie and its inspired by Sean Conners' Nazi Zombies. I know its early, but its looking good so far!

The players have spoken! Jumper is going to be a game based off of the jumping games such as DoodleJump and PapiJump. You basically keep jumping on platforms to see how high you can get. This game will use a modified Buttonz engine so speed shouldn't be an issue and it should be released quick.

*Make your own character!*

Post your 8x8 sprite here and it will be featured in the character selection screen along with your name in a credits screen or  (space issue) help file!
PNG or BMP formats are the best.

If space becomes an issue (probably not), I will have a vote to select the favorites.

This game will be part strategy and part action. Your goal is to grow your empire by buying/selling drugs and taking out the competition. I'll post some mockups in a few days. After the contest, I'll port what I can to the +C.

I never get out, just sit in front of my monitor watching youtube videos when I should be coding... I've never been to England, and I was wondering whats up with chavs??? Do they just go around and harass people? What defines a chav? I'd love to go over there and see for myself. I'm always curious of other peoples 'lifestyles' I'd guess you say, and I always wonder what it's really like. I check news in other countries but I can never be sure if its watered down by the time I see it or something.

I may start a video series on programming the TI84+C. I got a couple of requests to show how I create programs and I created this video. (I also refer them here to find me )



It's long but I try to go over everything necessary to get started and I include links to find everything needed.

Is anyone interested in it?
