Boney McBones update
So I decided to work on Boney McBones again. One of the things that I wanted to do was to have an animated character instead of just a square or triangle. So I turned to the little Odyssey 2 man. It took me a few hours working on this, but in the end, I had to figure out a roundabout way to display him on different y positions. It takes up probably way more code than it should, but it works. Then I thought about the title screen. It looked a little bland. So I put the little Odyssey 2 man on the title screen. I wanted him to run in random directions, but I think if I tried to do that, there wouldn't be room for much of anything else. So I just have him running left. I tried this on real hardware, and whenever the guy moved off the screen to the left, the scores glitched out. So I had to figure out a way to make it so once he reaches the left, he comes back on the right side of the screen again. That took a while. And I also tried to draw a bone using the grid and put the words "Boney McBones" in red on the bone. I don't think much of it but it beats a blank title screen devoid of anything like it was. Then, I found a bug about the scoring and how it doesn't reset when the game is over. I fixed it. It's been a gloomy dark day today. The skies are all filled with clouds and no sun in sight. Just the way I like it.
