I\u2019m 1h40 ahead of schedule, incredible! \"Smile\"<\/p>\n

\"Schedule05\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Interaction between the particles and the level end block was easier than expected\u2026<\/p>\n

The game is also shaping up a bit, I\u2019m starting to have a lot of ideas on extra elements for the game, although I\u2019m still not sure on how to get them all together in a fun, level-based design.<\/p>\n

Now, complete with moving blocks:<\/p>\n

\"screen04\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next up, one of the new elements: colored walls that only let pass certain colors\u2026 of course, for that to make sense, I need to have control on the type of color I\u2019m attracting with the mouse. I have two choices: I can base it on keypresses (which kind of defeat a bit my idea of minimalist gameplay, but might lead to a game that\u2019s more fun), or there might be elements that either change the color of the cursor (changing what it attracts) or changes the color of the particles for a certain time (or forever, not sure). <\/p>\n

These are the small decisions that I usually have a lot of fun with when I have more time, but when I have so little time to develop a game, I\u2019d like to have a magic ball that gives me the answer right away! \"Smile\"<\/p>\n
