It took me some time, but I finally finished chopping up the art work into a tile-able format for our level editor.  I ran into a few minor problems along the way, but nothing a little game magic can’t fix (and/or hide from your unknown eyes, mwa haha)! 

I have a very busy next few days with my paying job(s), this will slow things a bit for me, unfortunately.  With my previous 4 day holiday over the past weekend, that was suppose to free up some time for me to spend meshing things together, but life always gets in the way! 

A map showing off our little orange friend running around his new environment will be up as soon as I have a demo level ready!

I’ve been doing some level design lately. It’s great to finally start producing actual game content that will be used in the final product. I’ve been working on this game on and off since 2007 after taking just one semester of programming and it has really come a long way. I must admit though, for as strong as my programming skills are my level design skills need to be leveled up.

I find it hard to design levels for a long period of time. Keeping my perspective fresh is the hardest part it seems, but I figure that will come with practice. The best I can do now is work on design here and there and step away from it often. It’s almost a relief when I realize I need to code something for a level since coding is something I can do well, even for extended periods of time.

Either way, be prepared for some new Moldering videos or pictures (or at least details) in the near future.
