It gets tedious trying to make the levels inside the game source code so I decided to make a level editor.
Then I thought why have to rewrite every new game from scratch so I decided to turn it into a game maker system
and created a game engine that can run the game_data.json files.

So I have been working on that for the last 5 days or so and it's coming along nicely.
Most of the stuff is added to both the level editor and game engine to make it functional.
It's modular so in the game settings you just pick what features you want the game to have
and they automatically get added to the game when run in the game engine.

Things completed:
- Everything not listed below. :)

Things I know I still need to add...
- Readd Pause button AI removed! COMPLETED
- Biggest thing I still need to do that I don't have added is animating the objects for walking and stuff
- Enemy movement system COMPLETED
- High score feature (Already have code)
- Explosions (Already have code) COMPLETED
- Bonus timer feature
- Timer countdown feature

Over time I will add new features to support building other types of games.. for example (ghost chasing from mrs. pacman)
I am also thinking I may make a section with the editor and game engine online so people can create their own games
and then upload the files and anybody can play it.  Let me know what you guys think.


Here is a screenshot of the editor:

New update:

Been working on another game called Robot Wars that I think is going to be really good when finished but it's going to take awhile.
The concept is to be a mix of Gauntlet, Mission Impossible, Robotron, and probably some elements of Might & Magic.
But I am also thinking of building it out to be a whole bunch of games, puzzles, and challenges creating a whole dystopian world
where the robots have taken over and the goals of you and the resistance are to take back control of the planet.
Imagine completing missions where the missions take you into an entirely different games in the Robot Wars universe.
Maybe some games will be multiplayer even.

Right now, it's still early in development and just started working on the Robot Wars game in the last 3 days.
I have since the last message got all the functions so far designed and working 100%.
Added an inventory to pick up items but the items don't do anything yet except for the extra life one.
Also need to create 32x32 images for each item still and decide what items are available.
Created a system where some walls are solid, some can be destroyed, and some others can secretly hide objects to discover.

I still have to figure out which elements from which games I am going to incorporate as there is a lot of different ideas in
 all of those games mentioned.  Like gauntlet has health you have to constantly replenish, or some games have timers and then
some have lives.

I may do a combination of 2 of those and am thinking I really want to have character building with health.
I like the idea of building a stronger character making it easier to complete game missions.
I have created 10 testing levels to play around with the game mechanics so there is something there that is playable, but
I plan on adding so much more that this will not do it justice.

My friend was helping me test and said it was too hard so I found a use for my video player and added it to the website and c
reated some videos to show how to beat each level.  Try first before looking to see if you can figure them out.  They are not that
hard yet and not final levels like I said I'm just using for testing game elements right now.

Links have been created for the video and arcade sections.  Check them out.

New update:

All the image generation models have been fixed.  The only thing still broken are the buttons for face fix, upscale, and remove background. 
But these were actually broken before the upgrade.  Don't know how the heck it happened.  I have a ton of
backups but during one of the major conversions using the AI models they broke these features somehow and I have been
having a hard time getting a working code solution.  It really messed it up good, but there were so many good changes I
could not revert back. For some reason the remove background no longer works on the selected image, it always goes to the
last image generated and I have been a hell of a time trying to fix it.  You would think it would be an easy fix but I have
tried using the top 3 AI programming bots multiple times and they always screw it up.  I will keep working on it though
and hopefully will figure it out shortly and also add the same features to the NSFW folder.
