A little UXN progress this morning! I got the movement and growth working on my port of snake! I also got the collision with the snake body working but you cant see that because a snake of 3 cant collide with itself. Just need to keep score, increase speed as you eat and that is pretty much it. I am 100% sure I have gone about this a completely weird and round the houses way, but it works, and pretty well too! Ill finish it up and then pop the source online so you can all judge me.  @jameschip little idea: you could read and write position in a single opcode if you wanted by doing something like this: ( zero page ) ( snake ) That would grab .player/x and .player/y at once :uxn: Through a series of contrivances I now have access to s Switch and a copy of Breath of the Wild. I was soooooo excited to play a Zelda game that was new to me, then there was weapon damage and it killed it. I know, the game showers you with so many replacements it shouldn't matter, but it feels off. Weapons aren't scares enough to add tension, they just break enough to be frustrating. If it weren't for it it would be perfect. This is actually the first time I have sat down to play a modern console game since dragon age 3, because time and other things, and I am still enjoying it. It is just this one thing sticks out a lot as a weird choice. Zine Month has started again. The intention of #ZiMo started out as being an alternative to the Kickstarter backed ZineQuest as a way for creators to fund their projects outside of that platform. For some reason ZiMo is still allowing KS projects this year. Here is my thread of ZiMo projects that are NOT using kickstarter this year! Read on for amazing indie zines! u4g07 (A solo RPG adventure) You are an agent... at least you think you're an agent. You've just awakened in a strange place and you need to remember where you are (and who you are) before something horrible happens. This solo RPG is full of puzzles, mysteries, surprises, and twists at every turn! Set in the world of WILLOWISP (by the author of Secret Agent Someone). Getting up at 5:30, drinking tea, eating toast and reading ghost stories in the silence. It’s a good morning. I haven’t started writing yet, but I soon will. I find what I like to do is spend a few days thinking about how the story I am going to write is going to play out. I like to think about what’s going to happen and why, and once I have a good idea of how I want it to be, I write. The story will likely be completely different to the one I sit down to write, as things evolve, but if I just sit down to write with no direction then nothing happens. It’s a bit like avoiding the blank page problem because it’s already filled in my head before I sit down. Is this a thing other people are doing?  12
