Behold, blending vertex positions!
Old position + ((number between 0 and 1) * the difference between the old and new position)
This took so much math, it hurts. ...not the CPU, but it sure hurts me to do.
...and I've got four more angles to do this with.
Part of the expansion involves a cute little fight right here. ...in space for no apparent reason.
...too bad it won't be as epic as the final boss, but still...
A rather interesting thing I forgot about...
I realize some players just want to play the game and see the story, while others may actually want to use those revival items, so here's a little compromise for you all.
Also, yes, I NEED to put on that "Pro" flag everywhere.
This will be the last Bonus Stage I'll make for the game, because all the others are already developed.
Hopefully, there'll be more than dodging space potatoes, and I'll fix the HUD to not be the same one as the racing section.
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.
I forgot I designed the auctioneer recently. If there are robot maids, there are robot butlers, too.
...and yes, I did get inspiration from Jughead. What was your first clue?
Nobody's going to mind a time-limited Bonus Stage as long as it's not mandatory to beat it, right?
...and nobody will mind if the developer himself has a hard time with it, either, right?
The hands have now been drawn.
Now, I'd better program something that does the math for me to do that polygon-blending trick.
We aren't in deep space. We're above the earth. There are no space potatoes above the earth. There's space debris, though.
The real trick now is figuring out what the starbase you're flying into looks like.
