November 29th: Somewhat running

All compiler errors are fixed, all build errors are fixed, and it’s even run without crashing. Admittedly, when it did so it also didn’t do much of anything else, since in the process of porting some of the event chain … Continue reading

November 28th: Thanksgiving

Didn’t get a lot done today for obvious reason. Fixed a coupla bugs, dug up another one which should be relatively easy to solve now that I’ve found it. … Just remembered I’m supposed to post a weekly devblog tomorrow. … Continue reading

And so on, and so on, and so on. I’m actually having fun porting this stuff over now, it’s moderately demanding without forcing me to actually think very hard. I’m even taking my numerous mistakes, as I learn the language, … Continue reading

Crud, forgot about yesterday’s update. Well, it was pretty much the same as today, working on getting stuff ported over to Haxe. VERY sleepy. Would work on this some more if I could keep my eyes open but it’s impossible … Continue reading
