Breakout's nearly finished. My focus right now is changing the upmost blocks to be more visible now that I changed their colors. I'm very happy with how this is how this is coming along.

Art on Breakout is going incredibly well. I got a background I'm satisfied with, and really fits the theming I'm going for. Just some more touchups and I'm basically done.

I've settle on a design for the paddle I'm happy with. I did not, but probably should've, expect the design to get pixelated when I converted it to the size of the original paddle, but eh, I'm fine with it.

Now's when I begin to incorporate my own art into Breakout! At the moment, I'm working on the paddle design. It's in the very early stages, but I'm liking how it's turning out.

Beginning to lock in on how I want Breakout's theme to play out. The paddle was always going to be another cloud, but now I've settled on it being a storm cloud. I'm quite proud of that decision, honestly.

Breakout may be in a functional state, but I still want to make sure its custom theme gets finished. I settled on the idea that maybe the paddle should be a cloud as well, but after thinking about it, I think I'm going to draw that one instead of using pixel art.

Now that I'm mostly finished with the gameplay portion of Breakout, it's not time for me to put my own spin on it. Specifically, I'm considering giving it a sort of sky theme. Here's me trying to design the blocks to resemble clouds.

I'm almost done with Breakout! My progress on it has been going very smoothly, and I'm excited for putting my own ideas into the game. I really want to give it a unique art style.

Work on Breakout's still going strong. I'm having a much smoother time getting this one done than Snake. I'm enjoying this a lot more.

Starting work on my next project, Breakout. Off to a smooth start so far.

After way too long, Snake's finally finished. I don't really have much to say, I'm just happy to finally be finished with it: https://scholarc.itch.io/snake

Not much to say here. Just more progress on the main menu. I've been looking back on previous to how I pulled off a menu system then.
