Myriad Update

[WarmFluffyUK]

Hia folks,

After releasing the taster of the little game wot I have been writing , I have now updated a few things on it.

1. Ship dynamics are much better, cross-hair is more responsive.
2. The ship bounces off enemies.
3. Spike enemy created and running, not firing yet.
4. Energy meter working.
5. The game has been optimised somewhat, and should run a lot smoother.

I haven't written the lives system in yet, so if you die that's it. And when you have destroyed all the Buildings, it doesn't send you on to the next city. Still lots to do though...

TTFN,
Clare.

Okey Doke, another update, this one is really bringing the game into it actually being playable.

It hasn't been tested on a GP2X yet, so if someone can do that and please let me know if the FPS (Top left) goes below 30.

The particles, atm, are really hammering the CPU.
