Next up
Like I said before, draw_background_tiled_ext() can't do rotation. ...but if I'm not rotating, I can use it without consequence for an infinite floor.
I'm gonna work on a system for the road to constantly spawn objects as I move forward in a sequence.
A rather interesting thing I forgot about...
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...
I'm getting closer to my goal here.
All these rock piles are gonna loop indefinitely for now. My goal is to make the road widen, tighten, and move side-to-side with the walls.
...and replace the grassy floor with something more fruitcake-like.
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.
Almost there...
There's gonna be a second driving section without walls later.
This is the driving sequence in action.
I don't have any original music for that part, and I can imagine that passing-through-flags sound getting annoying after a while.
All this work to get punched in the face.
He's coming back. ...but just this once.
Here I am, still trying to push the limits. I'm pretty sure there's a shader for Mode 7 out there, but this is what I've been working with.
Also, because of limitations, red flashing floors generate force fields you can bump into.
