Xback to Xbox One
This week was spent getting my office in better shape, which included finally re-setting up the Xbox One dev kit, and getting a build running on the Xbox One hardware. I also stumbled upon my old stash of Dogecoins, and had a brief notion that perhaps now Tipping Goat...
WEEK 22
Coach Cliphord has entered the building. Utilizing the latest advancements in Programmer Art Science, a “very, very good” Coach Clip sprite has made his way onto the field… and into our hearts? Getting things working should generally come before the final art, so getting him scripted to run on...
Things and stuff
Here’s the fruits of the flow labor from last week. I’ve also got some informational text happening on the player select screen to help new players along. That’s it for now....

Deven Bloggerson: Completing a Season
Notice! Big milestone hit: I am the first person in sports history to complete a full season of Super Slam Dunk Touchdown. The semifinals and finals seem to be working as designed, though more testing is needed. The game now tracks who won the semifinal 1 match, uses this...
Moving is consuming my life
But enough excuses! I did some work over the weekend and on Monday to bring SportsPoints FanPoints to the forefront of the SSDT Season experience, in the form of an informative windowy thing (official name??). This new feature shows you information about your standing in the universe of Season...
