As a happy accident, the bricks I was painting the menu terrain with happened to swim all by themselves. They are obviously up to no good, but I think it worked great.<\/p>\n <p><a href=\"http:\/\/unknownincubator.com\/local_minimum\/bad_bricks\/media\/day2animMenu.gif\"><img src=\"http:\/\/unknownincubator.com\/local_minimum\/bad_bricks\/media\/day2animMenu.gif\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n <p>And though the surroundings to the brick wall is still to be replaced, I&#8217;m very happy with that brick shattering and the tweening when new bricks are shoved into their right place:<\/p>\n <p><img src=\"http:\/\/unknownincubator.com\/local_minimum\/bad_bricks\/media\/day2animTutLvl.gif\" width=\"400\" \/> <\/p>\n <p><strong><em>The skip button for the tutorial is in place (upper left).

Worst case scenario, I can put the bricks in new patterns and have the levels work by adjusting the amount of usurpers and rate of conspiracy.<\/p>\n <p>Almost keeping the schedule I&#8217;ve set for myself so far. For tomorrow there are still many thing but those with low priority could probably be regarded as a wishlist.<\/p>\n <p>I, must say, I&#8217;m having very much fun. Fourth game development in Unity and the rocks I hit are definitely more spaced out and softer. <\/p>\n \n <p>Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/gif\/\" rel=\"tag\">gif<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/juice\/\" rel=\"tag\">juice<\/a><\/p>","time":"January 11th, 2014 6:51 pm","title":"Bab Bricks got more Juice"}
