Update (Sooner or Later)

Just to let folks know what I've been working on...

I've been designing some functions to draw level art for future zones (The Cave and The Town mostly). Where-as Level 1 is composed of larger pieces of odd-sized art, future levels will be more tile based, with smaller more versatile pieces of art.

That's all to say I've been working on the Cave Zone and The Town. After you defeat the eyeball boss you'll find yourself in this underground shelter, which will serve as a town with shops and kind of a central hub for the rest of the zones in the game. Zones are going to be divided into 3-subzones, each about twice the size of Level 1. The first of these zones you'll usually explore is going to be The Cave Zone, which will play similar to a lot of the areas in Super Metroid. Lots of hidden rooms, large caverns to explore, simple monsters that follow patterns. I've been working on something of these monsters as well.

Anyways, the next update is a ways off. But it will be a big one, hopefully with whole new areas to explore.
