Hello and first of all a happy new year 2021!
It's been only a little while since I last worked on my latest game. I took the
time between Christmas and New Year to dive again into the depths of code.
Following the rough roadmap I have in my head I am trying to get the game to
become finally interactive, but being a platformer, this has some prerequisites
on basic physics and collision detection and collision handling. So I prepared
again a lot of reusable plumbing, implemented all the necessary functions
and tied it all together nicely to play along with the already existing parts
of the game. Here is a small video of the result:
<video controls="true">

</video>
Again, it does not look like much, but I am very happy about this result.
Although I will surely have to tweak the collision reaction more, but it is a
good start, so I believe.
Next up will be handling of input events including, but not lmited to, keyboard
key presses to control the player. After that I will hopefully be ready to fill
the game with actual content.
As always, you may check out the code of the game and its progress
[in its repository][repo]. I try to leave as many helpful comments and
documentation as possible while programming, but if anything is unclear, you
need further explanation or just want to talk about the game or any other
interesting topic, do not hesitate to contact me [via email][email] or any
other means listed [on my contact page][contact].
So much for this update. I hope I will be able to continue to work on this game
shortly.
Until then, keep calm and wash hands.
