most of the features I want to include are here already so I went and got a head start on some level design.

added a few new sprites, including one for our main character who I think looks rather dashing.

Also the gun goes "womph" now, so just imagine that sound every time you see a blue pellet coming out of him.

Tinkering with some levelling elements.

• added health pickups
• added a bullet frequency pickup that lasts 8 seconds
• added wraiths that behave like ghosts, but drop health pickups
• modified the spider's shooting patterns to shoot you in bursts instead of a continuous stream

To add:

• UI timer for the bullet frequency pickup
• endgame boss fight
• opening menu/level select
• protagonist sprite
• levels and level transitions

Optionals:

• cutscene artwork
• alternate sprite animations

Got my 11 year old sister lucy to help me with sprites (I can't draw for shit)

Added spiders.

The spiders shoot you.

There will be lots of spiders.

Good luck.

I'm working on something for the HaxeFlixel Game Jam!

More updates to come closer to the deadline. Or not. Wait and see maybe.
