This background full of conveyor belts might make it a bit more factory-like, but it's still ominous.

Three reasons to be going after the treasure:

What's taking me so long? Designing assets for the volcano level. Also, allergies.

Boom boom acka-lacka-lacka boom, boom boom acka-lacka boom boom.

So, what's the secret to drawing a car?

1. Just draw the car from profile, back, and possibly front.

2. Dig out any Hot Wheels product for reference.

3. Use the reference to figure out how to draw those in-between angles.

I might have gone too far in a few places, and not enough in others.

Still working on it.

There's definitely treasure around here, but it'll still take a while 'til we reach it.

First off, you can't rotate a background with draw_background_tiled. However, you can draw anything on a BIG surface, and a surface can be rotated and doubled up.

So, the infinite floor uses a surface, and now it's not chugging so hard. Look at the FPS.

Trying to do that Infinite Floor thing (technically, it's a trick of the camera), and I think it chugs.

Makes sense, since it's drawing on one surface over and over for each scanline, then putting that on another surface, which puts that on-screen.

Hmm...

...well... This is awkward.

Yes, I CAN make an animated background within a matte, with a shifting color palette. However, I realize this doesn't look like lava, no matter which way you shake it.

...the effect's cool, though.

Robots fresh off the assembly line from the prosthetics factory.

I call the ones that crawl "Gwendy", after the dolls from Small Soldiers.
