Making an Atari game – Day 8

First monster placement
First monster placement

Alright, I’m exhausted. I want to keep coding but my brain isn’t working anymore. Still having a hard time switching my sleep over. I spent a lot of time just sitting and thinking today about how I want to go about handling the monsters, their graphics, movement, behaviours, and where/when they should pop up. I think I have a good idea how to go about it. I’m really running out of variables to work with so Im trying to be careful with this.

Since I’m so tired, I’m putting the code up for today a bit sooner than I would normally. But as of right now one monster does appear in the rooms that he is suppose to appear in. He also starts walking in one direction (forever) looping from one side of the screen to the other. Walking straight through walls because I haven’t coded the collision detection for him yet. But this is a good start. Kind of an ugly place to leave the code, but I really can’t function anymore tonight lol. I got to get some sleep and maybe try again tomorrow night.
