| I know you may laugh, anyway here is the first screenshot for UFEC 09... It is more than just a black screen, even if it looks like just a black screen. Game mechanics are finished on paper and have to be implemented now.

Find here the board of Cylcle. I descided to start with the mechanics completely without graphics and other stuff. It is hard to not open GIMP or Wings3D and just code the essentials, but I think it is important to have a robust core engine. Last time with Libertine I got lost in bugs. This time I try to avoid as much as possible (dare me father, for I must sin!). First interaction is available, fields and nodes are identified and accessable. Just one player.![]() |

| No new screenshot available. I'm just coding all the basics and essentials, prepare the classes and game architecture. I hope that a clean and secure menu and game flow is worth to spend some more time and effort. However it makes no fun to have just lines of code and no eye candy. There is even no element included yet. |

| OK, weekend did its best. I finished the menu and user interface. As promissed, it's still ugly without shadows, bloom, blur, particles, high res textures and post processing effects. It's still a menu with a functionality. However it works without memory leak. 24 MB RAM usage for Cycle at this stage. The app itself has in debug configuration 624,8 KB. It would still fit on a 3.5' disk.
