Due to top-down levels working a little differently, it took me a bit to get motivated to program and animate Pinafore in five directions. (Three of these directions are mirrored for a total of eight.)

Unfortunately, that's the easy part.

As a writer, you learn to just make stuff up. As a science-fiction writer, you justify the stuff you just make up.

"Derma" is related to "skin", and "myo" is related to "myoelectric prosthesis".

I got the keyboard and gamepad input-changing in here.

Try to keep track of the difference between using strings (for the labels on each key) and using actual variables (how the game interprets inputs).

Two-level demo for Robot Maid P-NA-4 is here!

...but the game's still not in active development right now.

I know. It looks pretty much the same as before. I just needed the motivation to do more with it.

...and an excuse for all sorts of robots at a convention to be attacking Pinafore, specifically.

When you don't know about copyright laws when it comes to fonts, you either take a chance, or make your own.

Of course, in the world of sprite art, that doesn't leave many options.

Testing out a tentacle...

In case anyone forgot, robots explode.

So do robot maids.

Something in the plan for this game will change. With any luck, it will be a change for the better.
