I’m not done for the night, but it seemed like a good time to post a screenshot.\u00a0 There isn’t much gameplay to it right now.\u00a0 The idea is that monsters will progress from the left to the right towards the tower, where you are the person defending.\u00a0 At your disposal is arrows that you shoot from one of three places on the tower.\u00a0 Ok, so the arrows don’t do anything yet, since I didn’t implement the collision routines.\u00a0 I have spent most of the past couple hours making the game look better than the black and white sketches that I’ve been using.\u00a0 Now it looks like colored versions of my sketches.\u00a0 I like the style, so I am going to keep it.\u00a0 I think they look better than anything pixel pushed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Next up is probably the HUD display for the top of the screen to display the game info.<\/p>\n

Oh, and the screenshot capturing is done from built-in code that dumps the frame before it displays it.\u00a0 I think its neat. \":)\"<\/p>\n \n
