Hey everyone!
I hope you all had a great 2024. Here’s a final devlog for the year which added the Penkinos boss fight to my game. It also added a music remix system to a new pause menu.
Thanks,
Tom
An Overwhelmed Game Dev…
Hey,
I’ve just launched a second YouTube channel and I really wanted to highlight the struggles that went into creating the most recent devlog. Feelings of overwhelm, impostor syndrome and lack of motivation. I go into how I managed to overcome these issues on this occasion and talk through what that process was like. It’s different to my normal game dev videos but it’s quite a personal video and I hope you’ll enjoy it as you get to know me better.
Thanks,
Tom

Hold The Throne – New Bonus Stage (Play Free)
I’ve recently started doing dev challenges with another content creator on instagram. These challenge are game development challenges. I don’t currently have an active project so for the last two challenges I’ve been posting dev logs on my instagram and created a new level for ‘Hold The Throne’ an old game jam project of mine. There is now a bonus stage complete with 2 new enemies, 1 new boss, new background sprites, new music and there is also a new main menu.

Run Tapper – Next Update Plans
Hello all!
It’s been a while, I’ve just finished my University course and I am awaiting results. In the meantime I’ve thought about additions and improvements to Run Tapper. For version 1.5.0 I intended to implement or question the additions of the following. If an item has (?) beside it then I am considering adding it as a feature and any comments as to whether it should be implemented are greatly appreciated.
- Menu Music (?) – Annoying after long periods ie Level editor?
- In Game Music (?) – Not sure if this would become jarring if music was added to level generation as the game is fast paced. Perhaps dependant on movement speed.
- Revised Audio for surfaces
- Performance enhancements – raise from locked 30fps to locked 60fps

My Birthday (28/04)
Hey everyone so yesterday I celebrated my birthday.
Due to having a presentation on the 29th I’ve mainly scheduled my birthday to another day for family but what I was able to do with having a presentation the next day is this.
I went out for a meal which turned pretty crazy and I thought you might like to hear it. Me and 2 of my friends decided to go for a food challenge in which you have to finish everything in order to win yourself a certificate and be put on the hall of fame.

OpenGL – 2D & 3D Pong
So in November 2015 I did a Graphics module in which I learnt how to use C++ and OpenGL. I uploaded some footage of the 3D pong in my games portfolio, I have decided to upload separate videos for the pong games as the 2D pong project was unseen. You can find videos below.
