OK, so.
I have my first few classes down using the new test-driven method. It's been written about a thousand times before (at least), so I shan't bore you with the details, but a nice quick summary is here (linky!).
I like it, actually. It hasn't been getting in the way too much, and I've gotten a lot further with the project this time - when I've been writing tests about what to expect from the code before touching the code itself - than the first time I tried it, when I ended up bogged down in complexity and confusion.
Coverage of the code by the tests is still nice and high (thanks in no small part to EclEmma!) and motivation is also pretty good.
No real demonstrable product to show yet, though... that'll be a while before we've anything that even remotely resembles a game system, and I haven't even looked at an interface yet. Lots of fun to come.
Note to self: should also put together a website.
Progress so far: 1,172 instructions; 1090 instructions covered by tests.
