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.

New version 0.2.1 has been uploaded, now covers about 4 out of the 8 days (a lot of missing obstacles at the moment). Still a few tweaks left to do to the background graphics, but visual look has mostly solidified now. Will keep chipping away.

Work has started on remastering the original Space Station: Alpha with improved graphics and new functionality. Preview in the GIF.

Graphics just about complete now, next major development feature now is controls before I then work on finalising the level design.

Work continues on the graphics, it's starting to finally look like a game. I have a day/night cycle working with lighting. Still on a single "level" at the moment but that should change soon.

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.
