Ever play that old game Centipede? Well, I wanted to make a monster that acts kind of like that. Basically a monster with multiple body segments that you can destroy and make him get smaller. Its simple when drawing it out, but there are a lot of little parts to think of with how something like that moves. Its been a good programming challenge for me and I'm pretty happy with how its coming along. Initially its for a boss but also will be a common enemy later on too. When making a game solo its important to reuse everything you can to get mileage out of it. As much fun as it is to make new enemies though what I should focus on is finishing all the level design so I can get an alpha build out on the app store.
I got the shop up and running too! Now I just need to fill it up with enough items and do some math to figure out the economy a little. When you first get there you shouldn't be able to get the most expensive items. Maybe, just MAYBE one. You also need a reason to come back.
Also, centipedes are gross.
