Yes it has been a while since I worked on this game. I was just playing the original two versions and I realized the flaw in my design. I took out the complex button mapping of the newer version and instead replaced it with 2 buttons: Shoot and Shield. Instead of using a fancy maneuver with the shield + arrow keys, you strafe. This is the main move that I should have added. I am contemplating about remapping the strafe key to shoot, but it is still a bit usefuul to turn and shoot.
One thing I especially decided to change was the graphics. One look and I knew I needed a better style. So I'm bumping down the progress to 10% because only the engine is done at this point. So that's it so far. Feel free to commetn (please!)
