After quite the haiatus, managed to crank out some ASM over the weekend and the space levels are nearing fruition!

Lil bit of tinkering left in space but I've planned out the underwater levels tonight.

Got the underwater levels set-out a bit more in FCEUX and a love how cute the sharks loo currently. Just need to add more to their movement patterns andthen I'll be pretty happy with it!

Starting to make the sharks move more like...err guppies in the fish tank... still deadly mind! Will add some light homing to one of them to mix things up.

Apologies for the delay in updates, been busy with bits and bobs all over the place with work, family and, thankfully found some more time for some work on Flap Happy over the weekend!

So, I've set out the instruction booklet and designed a simple, fun little logo for the game.



Tidied up the code a bit and decided on the game modes as follows:

Easy (less, slower enemies)

Medium (normal speed enemies)

Hard (normal speed enemies, tougher levels)

Hardest (as above but with the toughest levels only)

Endless (Each level is randomly selected and, as implied, there's no end)

Single Stage (A single stage select with number of frames taken displayed in the results)

Have written up a handy sound effects and music chunks of code recently.

I need to make improvements to both but at least they're working fairly well so far.

Finished up writing up my music engine recently, quite pleased with the results so far, just need to tidy up the game, sort out the ending and I'll FINALLY be done!

(then it'll be onto game #2)
