Back in the old days, you could just flash between these two frames to make dynamic lighting, to show something's flashing in front of her.

I'm just gonna use the other frame to indicate the lights are on. No flashing required.

"Sir, is the Super Scaler effect really necessary for a cutscene like this?"

"I coded it, didn't I?"

Don't worry, I backed up the other one, but I'm going with this for the alien spacecraft. Part UFO, part retrofuturist rocket, and only three tentacles for the tripod look.

I'm pretty sure I got the save feature working, though I don't know if three save files is acceptable.

Then again, the save features are for Casual Play only. Arcade and Caravan Modes don't let you save your game, for hopefully obvious reasons.

A rather interesting thing I forgot about...

Part of the expansion involves a cute little fight right here. ...in space for no apparent reason.

...too bad it won't be as epic as the final boss, but still...

Here. I've got a trailer ready. (...assuming it loads.)

Now I've gotta shop it around, and upload it onto YouTube.

If you think YOU're asking "Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet?" then just imagine how I feel every time I have to add little details and bug fixes.

...I'd better make a trailer or pitch reel.

Well, finding glitches was bound to happen.

In this case, with a scrolling boss, the player's trapped on the left side of the screen until there's no solid block there.

I'd better fix that, THEN shrink the gap behind the boss.

I was considering releasing the expansion today, but then I found a lot of bugs I should've spotted in the original build, and I made the minimap do extra stuff for said expansion.

Don't worry, it'll be out by tomorrow night.
