Gotcha!

Large version.

I lied! Here's an update to the slingshot. I've got a decent idea of where I want this headed now, so I plan to get it polished up in the next few days!

The biggest addition here is the addition of the capturing bubble that seeks out berries that have fallen. Once it "sees" one, it rushes to it and grabs it. With berry in tow, it returns it to the center of the screen, drops it off, and a new berry spawns. This will be a huge element in the final product.

Slingshot pt. 2

Well, today has been quite the day. Little annoyances have plagued me throughout the day. I'm sure we've all been assaulted by the terrible images coming in from Haiti. All of my little issues seem so small compared to what they are going through down there. I encourage you to send good thoughts (or better yet, a little spare cash) down south. Our local Fox affiliate has a nice collection of links you can find here.

Right-o, then.

As you can see, I've made some progress in this slingshot app. I have an idea of what I plan to do with this, but it might not be fully realized for a short while yet.

Slingshot (WIP)

Large version.

I'm not completely done with this one yet, but I did want to upload my progress so far. To fire off a shot, click and hold one of the two yellow dots. Drag back, and release it to fire! You can pack a lot of energy into a shot, so if you pull back too far, you'll likely send it flying insanely fast off the screen.

I'll be touching this up and doing a little more with it in the next few days.
