First game-related blog post

Things I’ve added in the past month:

1. Loads of new enemies (With actual animation!)
2. A “loose” camera system that doesn’t make movement feel choppy (i.e., the sub isn’t always in the exact center now)
3. Vector-based lighting instead of tile-based (see screenshot). It looks smoother, but I’m still considering removing lighting altogether
4. Up to about 40 areas designed. Each area is about the size of a mid-to-large Super Metroid room.
5. Moved dialogue boxes to the bottom; they no longer cover up the status bar
6. Special effect blocks, like lava, have been added
7. New decorative items
8. More dialogue/plot
9. More sound effects
10. First actual song for the game now exists
