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.

Level design just about done, probably going to tweak the day/night cycle a little bit. Last major thing to do now is the audio. Otherwise the game is pretty playable now.

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

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.

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.

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