Still out

Recovery is going slower than I expected. I don't know when I will be discharged. Hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.

Brief break

So, I ended up at the hospital yesterday.  I'm still in the hospital. Not sure when I'll be back but keep checking in for more details on the next tutorial.

tutorial eleven update

Quiet day today. I did some work on the next tutorial. It's coming along nicely. I should have it up on Monday. I added a portal layer and collision layer to the tile map now rather than changing the save and load logic later. The rest of the tutorial will focus on saving the game. For saving I'm taking a shot gun approach and saving everything. Stay tuned for more information.

Tutorial eleven status

I haven't started tutorial eleven in the Shadow Monsters series yet. It will be about saving the game. I plan to finish it by Sunday or Monday. Stay tuned for more details.

Tutorial ten is live

Tutorial ten is now live.  It covers adding in basic items and how to use them. You can find the tutorial on the MonoGame Tutorials page of the site.

I will be starting work on the next tutorial shortly. Stay tuned for more information.
