A little update. Yesterday I added The Dark Tower (player starting base) and tree zappers (drain trees for power and for simply draining trees).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/screenshot04-darktowertreezappers.jpg\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5403\" height=\"230\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/screenshot04-darktowertreezappers-300x230.jpg\" width=\"300\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After that, I wasted a lot of time on how the wall of decay etc should progress, only to ending up with something that wouldn\u2019t work. So I\u2019m still thinking about that. I could spend some time describing what didn\u2019t work, but I\u2019m not going to. Instead here\u2019s a screenshot showing how the decay thing for the ground would look (the tree decay in this shot is just for testing purposes).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/screenshot03-contrast.jpg\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5405\" height=\"230\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/screenshot03-contrast-300x230.jpg\" width=\"300\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now I have some thinking and showering to do.
