-dev-log</h2>
-<p>See here <a href="https://baden.dev/p/nuki1">NUKI1 - Nuki and I
-explore the Galaxy - on baden.dev</a></p>
-<h3 id="quick-introduction">Quick introduction</h3>
-<p><code>NUKI1</code> or <code>Nuki and I explore the Galaxy</code> is a
-puzzle-platformer mix, and my first commercially released game.</p>
-<p>I tried to create a new unique genre-mix (in the somehow worn out
-platformer genre) implementing ideas that lingered in my mind for years,
-a lot of those inspired by some good old DOS games I played.</p>
-<h3 id="concept">Concept</h3>
-<p>At first I wanted to make a top-down puzzler game, but felt that I
-needed more “action” and “physics” like advanced and precise platformer
-movement and artillery-game and rocket movement.</p>
-<p>Also, an inventory system with object interaction like in a RPG and
-puzzles that you need to solve in real life (on paper/via web
-lookup/etc.) were on my list.</p>
-<p>At the end I decided to make the game in 10 unique levels and
-integrate all of my crazy genre-mix-ideas.</p>
-<h3 id="implementation">Implementation</h3>
-<p>I started the game in Python only using tkinter as a “side-project”,
-when I hit performance problems and coincidentally bought an ODROID GO
-SUPER device for cheap.</p>
-<p>I thought it would be nice to support the ODROID, and from then on I
-rewrote the game in C++ with ODROID support in mind (wasn’t far
-anyways).</p>
-<p>I only wanted to use minimal dependencies, so it was SDL and
-tinyxml2, the rest of the game I wanted to write completely on my own,
-since that’s where the fun lies! Writing physics/vector/math/… classes
-and basically the entire engine on my own!</p>
-<h3 id="programming">Programming</h3>
-<h4 id="not-so-fun">Not so fun</h4>
-<ul>
-<li>Collision detection and handling
-<ul>
-<li>Wanted to have “pixel-perfect” collisions using AABB (Axis-Aligned
-Bounding Box) collisions with some second check of “penetration”, which
-meant looking at how deep until the first row has a pixel that overlaps
-with other entity.
-<ul>
-<li>Getting this “okay” and also fast enough on the ODROID was quite
-challenging</li>
-</ul></li>
-</ul></li>
-<li>Music: I LOVE music and someday I hope I’ll make something, for now
-I didn’t want to use third party music, so…</li>

-<li>equipping items and have them change stuff in the game world</li>

-<h3 id="stats">Stats</h3>
-<p>All in all, with rewriting a huge part of the game (while getting
-better at C++), a lot of pixel painting and planning, I estimate around
-1500 - 2500 hrs of work for everything.</p>
-<p>A lof of time was lost in the first Py version, me getting better in
-C++ and rewriting a lot of stuff.</p>
