Currently I’m using my desktop as the place that I am developing the game, I tried installing gms2 on my Surface Go but after a bit of time using it I am not so sure I like it on this device.

I didn’t get much done recently but I managed to get a bit more acquainted with the layer system in game maker studio 2 for rooms. Honestly the last time I touched the backgrounds tab I was probably half my age, I kinda knew what they were like but I never really pushed a game project to the point where I would place backgrounds.

Basically I just added some backgrounds, placeholders.

And also added basic enemy stomping. Nothing crazy but its an okay template to make the other enemies from.

Somewhere along the line working on the game, I wanted to take a quick break, and suddenly I’ve spent a couple hours on a completely different project… dunno what to say it’s apparently extremely difficult for me to stay focused on a long term project. I need to make sure I don’t go chasing rabbit holes in unrelated stuff or I will eventually lose focus on this project.

Anybut next thing on my todo list for this is creating a simple pickup object fulfilling the role of essentially coins or rings. As well as a counter for it and lives.

So until next time!
