Sunday Challenges

On Sundays, I sometimes take a break from working on my main project to quickly prototype something simple. A lot of the time, this is a way for me to test an idea that eventually gets rolled into other projects.

A good example of this would be the Tiny X-Wing project, which was designed to test the idea of loading JSON files that affected gameplay such as ship speed and weapon damage. This project informed a lot of the architecture and design decisions that ultimately led to many features of Tiny Combat Arena becoming driven by external human-readable files.

Some projects might be streamed on my YouTube page. If they are, the associated stream will be linked as well. Click on the Project Source link for each project to see more details and the source code.
