This thread is the sequel to https://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/616060 (and formerly https://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/615908 and https://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/615719 )

I knew the thread autolock would have cut this off. But I wanted to spend some time far from internet effervescence and social networks. It's nice to take a break! :)

OK so after some weeks of rest, let's get back to code and project stuff!!

I got plenty of good remarks/advices during Stunfest (not my first event but the biggest one as an exhibitor (some photos here). Thanks to everyone who tested: your kind words mean a lot for me). Now it's the time to sort all these and fix/debug/upgrade/rework.

Also many details still have to be take care of, as well as level design revisions/adaptations.

It's summertime, so probably everybody will have something more interesting to do (or to play with, since the Steam sales and all its cheap curated games) but for those who are still reading: To sum it up, I'm still working on Cipher Pusher, I will continue on working on it this summer, and to celebrate here is a subnormal/glitchy GIF because that's the way we like debugging right? ;D

Here a screenshotsaturday of my old XTank clone hidden in a registry tool

Wair, you hid an Allegro game inside a registry tool? That's actually cool xD.

What might someone running Dependency walker on your program think when she sees references to allegro related dlls? ;D

Well that person might discover that there's something Allegro related in that small piece of software! As well as any person running Assembly-debugging tool actually! ::)
(Though IIRC I built them statically with Allegro 4)!

Today's post is about an old sketch I drawn (I was 7) when I played Zaxxon on Colecovision.
Every piece of RetroGaming or shmup is a great source for gamedesign inspiration, and that early 80's 3D-isometric shooter is also a technology prowess.

[Edit2]
Today's Screenshotsaturday is about all the joy, fun & mysteries when you debug your own sprite engine! :)
