Now Blocky Man can jump on his foes to kill them.

I suppose now I should come up with the plot of this game. It's not really so much the plot, as what the different planets are going to look like. I want each world to be very different from the last, not only in looks, but in level design as well.

I'll probably have some level design ideas tomorrow, so I can put them open to discussion.

Well, I finally finished the whole "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series. I enjoyed it very much, and it definetly has left an influence on me regarding how I will craft the game worlds I'll be creating.

I understand that there is a feeling that the series is not as good at the end as in the beginning. I can agree with that, but I enjoyed it throughout. If I had to put the books in order, with #1 being my favorite, and #5 being my least favorite, it would go like this:

1. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
2. Life, the Universe, and Everything
3. The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
4. Mostly Harmless
5. So long, and thanks for all the fish

I'm hoping that I might find another sci-fi comedy book, but I haven't heard of any.

If you want sci-fi books that are funny, you might want to take a look at some of Kurt Vonnegut's books. The Sirens of Titan and Cat's Cradle are both excellent, though Sirens is more scifi-ish.

Ah thanks, I'll look into it.

I generally like the Sci-fi genre, but I like it alot more if it doesn't take itself too seriously.
