As I mentioned in a post a few weeks ago, My Father passed away in January, we were finally able to lay him to rest this week.

This week I’ve been working on getting my development environment working again and adding the games I made last year to my Itch.io Page.

It’s a new year, it’s been a while since I posted last, what have I been up to and what am I planning to do next.

I finally got around to finishing March’s contribution to my One Game a Month 2022 challenge Monotris is a copy of the classic Tetris.

To get started with making games it’s often a good idea to be able to write out debug messages while you’re working on your game even if that’s just the current FPS. MonoGame doesn’t allow you to use the system fonts on the computer the game is running on you need to provide your own. To achieve this you need to add a font to your game to be used for writing strings to the screen.
