So here we go, it’s shaping up.<\/p>\n

The enemies now can change colour, and shoot globs of goo in that colour. I have yet to get them to evolve, but whatever.<\/p>\n

There’s a second level slowly coming into existence, involving a glacier. It doesn’t look quite as pretty as the train level yet but I’m working on it.<\/p>\n

Level unlocking works, and there’s now a way to win the first level (by defeating your first enemy)<\/p>\n

Enemy AI is slightly improved (they can jump properly) though they seem to get stuck on the sides of things.<\/p>\n

Here’s a screenie:<\/p>\n

As you can see, I’ve added a new tileset for the new level and healthbars area there.<\/p>\n

I completely rewrote the method of fighting a while ago and instead of pressing space and having the sword spin a bit, the sword now stays in a radoius of 64 of the player and follows the mouse.<\/p>\n
