This week I have begun creating the following sprites for my game in gamemaker; the character, the obstacles, the floor and the portals to different levels.

Date: 16.03.15

This week I have finished of the sprites that I previously started on in the first week and begun making backgrounds for the different levels of my game.

This week I have started adding code so that my character can move around the game and interact with objects.

This week I have improved the coding of my character as it was flawed (the character would not be killed when hitting obj_spike in the game), and I have also made some more backgrounds for the levels.

This week I have changed the look of the character and the objects within the level. I have also added a new type of object to the game which kills the player if they fall.

This week I have created two new levels bringing the total number in the game up to seven.

This week I had to solve a problem which caused the player to jump in the air constantly even if they were not holding the jump button (spacebar).

Date: 06.05.15

This week I have altered several of the backgrounds so that they having moving parts to make the levels more visually appealing.

This week I have changed the player character design and the floor design on several levels.

This week I have been finalising my game and making sure that all of the gameplay elements work correctly. I have also edited the start menu and the first level which now contain instructions on how to play the game.
