I added checkpoints in this version and adjusted when the platforms ahead of you appear to 2 days. Where the checkpoint loads the player needs to be adjusted a bit, now it loads them to the instant they touched the checkpoint object, which is often mid-jump. Should load the player to the point they touched the platform.
Next up
New version released as early alpha! I did this bc the game kinda works as a nice screensaver right now ><
Press 1-5 to equip/un-equip weapons, everything auto-fires right now. Once you reach the top it just restarts. Levels just go up for now...
Space Courier 2! Almost certainly what it's not going to be called! Early Alpha screensaver version released!
Use WASD!
Press 1-5 to equip/unequip systems
Press 'G' to activate auto-pilot and enjoy the screensaver!
All the other systems are still WIP =D
Whoa it's been too damn long. The first enemy type is a drone that hangs out in the fields. Destroying one sends it flying into other objects. I created an auto-pilot, it's not smart, really just a debug tool that turned out to be a nice screensaver.
Phaser beams on full! 
New ability & auto-firing is working for both weapon types. Many more abilities in the pipeline too! I like the particle effects on the collisions so far but I want to add some color there. I'm getting sick of this grey ship too..
Tweaked the background a bit, layers are more subtle and have varying opacity. I added particles to the laser hitting rocks & there's health and damage logic working there too. There's gems and tractor beam action too! Look as the number goes up! 
Been awhile, but oh yes I now have MENU > SELECT VESSEL > PLAY THE DARN GAME working! Hopefully I can upload this version tomorrow. todo: make the weapons work in an awesome & satisfying way.
The video looks a bit choppy, screen record on a Chromebook 
Space nukes! 
I finally have this weapon working close to how I want. As with everything at this stage, there's plenty of tweaking to be done. I turned off the other weapons for this vid.
Meteeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrsssssss!!!! 
EXP on left, health in the center, and engines on the right. As long as you're not using energy the engines recharge. Base weapon ability won't use energy but boosting and specials will consume energy, as will braking.
Levels now go up! 
I tweaked the turning radius and bullet speed, still a lot of testing to do there but this feels much better. Next up is damage to the player from collisions and consuming engine power when firing 
Created the game page!
Early asteroid development in this version. Lasers destroy them as well as them colliding with one another. I'm experimenting with a sort-of-random decision on which asteroid is destroyed in the collision (or both).
