The game's really starting to come together, now.

I ended up putting the three floppy disks back into Futrino, last night. As much as the game has a different sort of "world", the idea of collecting the three disks to complete a level is still simple enough to understand, and provides the difficulty of having to destroy all the barrels in order to find those disks.

Weapons are now functioning much better.

With a single "it follows you around" enemy type in place, I spent a good hour or so trying to find the right feel for the game.

There's still no baddies in the game yet, but shooting barrels is at least functional.

I really need to organise some of the recent additions. Foldapuz and the JNKsg Sprite Doohickey still don't have proper links, and I've been saying for AGES that I need a single "Tools" page to deal with all of those.

I added these things to the Sprite Generator, yesterday.

Added Geometric Icons, which creates symbols and icons that might be useful in some kind of sci-fi environment, maybe for signage or GUI elements or things like that. To be honest, they're not as vibrant and recognisable as I'd like. I could probably do a better job, if I spent more than about an hour trying to do it, and might return to them in the future. Also added Gems, which should be fairly obvious!

I think my head's a bit sleepy, right now! Must be all the Advent of Creativity that's done me in, or the three or four glasses of Baileys that I had over Xmas!
