I've done a lot of polishing for the up coming update. (should be out soon I only have one thing left!) I've implemented some features that will be used in future updates. One of those are wall collisions/wall bounce.
Here's some changes I haven't told you about:
Option to show player names in game next to the points
Obstacles now respawn after being hit
When you hit a player or their line it inverts your controls for a configurable amount of time.
I made the light blue give you 1 point when your points are either 0 or 1
I changed the size and opacities of the goals and obstacles to make goals standout more. (I might art these either in this update or next)
About the future:
Maps will be coming in the next big update and I'm really excited to work on them and make art for them. I hope everyone is as excited to play them as I am to make them! I also might add power-ups to the next update instead of waiting until after since I think they will complement each other. I have some visual effects I wanna try out for some of the maps that I think will make them look really cool! I wanna make a map editor eventually that will make this easier but that won't be done in time so I'm doing it all be hand. I won't share the three maps I have plans on making because I don't want to promise too much but they sound good on paper. I also have most of the power-up details worked out and there are going to be 3 types of power-ups each with different variants. You will be able to use them yourself or use them on a random player. You'll only be able to hold one at a time so that it's more fair for everyone. (You won't be able to hog all the power-ups)
Conclusion hopefully this look into the future of the game has made everyone excited! I don't have a lot more to do for this coming update. I hope to have it out either today or sometime in the next 2 weeks.
