So the game is now in a roughly playable state. Still a lot of obstacles and level design to go to flesh it out, then need to handle audio, menu, win/loss conditions and a bunch of other minor things.

Final preparations are being made, audio needs a few tweaks now. Should be up just before Hanukkah starts.

Just about got the animations to a place where I will be happy, next real focus is going to be on dealing with the obstacles/challenges

Slowly adding more graphics to the game, palette is nearly decided though might have a few more tweaks to go. Next phase is starting to build out a level or two.

Managed to get sliding animations into the game, still needs a little tweaking though and collision detection added in. A lot of the core functionality is now in, soon it will be to get level design started.
