Another game has fallen to the hands of my tempermental nature... well, gone on hold, at least. I have exams approaching, and I'm too filled with worry and stuff about that and revision and etc to be able to program enjoyably at the moment - and through the summer I'm busy too.

If I ever continue it, I'll make a post. For now, my minds set on exams, summer, college and my own personal faults and demons.

EDIT (31/05/06):

Going back and looking at what I've done so far, I think I will continue. I'm not sure when, but I can tell you one thing: I'm not done with this mother yet.


Probably.

Been putting weapons in. The K2 tommigun (standard laser machinegun), K4 tommigun (laser machinegun with exploding lasers), Chainblaster X (laser minigun) and the Annihil8or (laser shotgun/spread shot lasers) are all in - but I've decided to ditch the impact grenades (grenades in space?!?! wtf was I smoking?!?) and replace it with a good ol' fashioned lightning gun. I've gotta figure out the math for it though... and although it's not too hard... I have Quake 4, incompleted, sitting on my PC... and I can't stop playing it... groah...

Have a screenshot. Errr... a mini one. (of Blambastic II)

Particles, additive blending, and a nice little shockwave. Hope you like.

Still haven't got the ship designs yet... this guys a real perfectionist, though... :p

BLAMBASTIC II is the sequal to the three level disasterpiece that I did when I was on holiday, a few years ago. However, this one will be more polished, have many more ships and weapons and just be better overall...

I've already coded a multi-layed scrolling engine for the stars, got the HUD and the basics for the menu done, and listed + named all the weapons. Take a look:

I've got an old schoolfriend designing the ships (as I am cack at ship designing), and before I can proceed I need him to get the designs to me. I'll update when I get em.

PS. Ferret has said that these pics aren't working. But they work for me. So I dunno, they might not work. Sorry, blame my webhost if they don't ¬¬
