I still got more to do yet!<\/p>\n <p>Pinatas won my interest as the theme of the game! As a weapon, I was thinking brooms &#8212; which led to my decision of pinatas. But, I felt brooms are too much of a cliche. So, as a last-second effort, the sweeper was selected instead!<\/p>\n <p>Still got plenty to do: the enemies, the graphics, the animation, the rules, the audio&#8230; tons to do! Likewise, the most consuming part is programming everything from scratch and I&#8217;m glad to get a large portion of that done.<\/p>\n <p>Oh, and that pink boxy protagonist is a pinata too. (Suppose to be a generic pinata with one &#8220;company defect&#8221; &#8212; it&#8217;s very blandly designed.)
