Success and Failure

The graphics worked. I had twelve themes working while playing and you could select the theme by using the relevant option. I was ecstatic, I was over the moon, it was such a big weight off my mind to get this little bit of functionality out of the way. I even crossed it off the to-do list.

Then…

I thought, ‘Oh best check it out on the 6600 just to make sure!’ and built the jar and then transferred it over the Bluetooth connection. Oh Lord, what a downer. It takes too long to draw the screen. It’s almost a minute for each game loop. I don’t know what causes this but I have a feeling that the Create Image method isn’t all that fast on the 6600 and I’m now looking at the issue but it feels so close yet so far.

I’m now designing the single player section enhancement but that’s going to take a little while.
