Progress
Greatly scaled back the scope of the game from wicked baddass epic side scroller, to high score survive as long as you can deal
I actually did that much earlier this afternoon, but just now admitting it (stupid 48 hours)
90% of the game’s element is there just need to add my tractor beam and test, after that its all fluff, unlike most of my LD games if you figure out a way to cheat on this one, it will screw you over! the game’s score is based on time, so if you manage to hit a spawn (its randomly generated at start, and randomly manipulated per cycle) that allows some dead space that you can hide in, the asteroid fragments quickly increase in velocity assuring you a quick “death”
so, if we were to have a high score contest, its in your best interest to interact with the game (evil laugh)
If I have time in the next 18.5 hours I would like to have a win situation, and I have an appropriate idea of how to do that, but time will tell
oh yea, screenie
