You may have heard or seen the Humble Bundle promotion going on with all of the game making tools. You may have also seen the Game Dev Fort contest with prizes funded from the Humble Bundle's total sales. As of right now, roughly 5 AM EST on the 14th of July... The prize pool is at $43,798. The bundle still has a week left.
I would be doing myself a disservice if I didn't spend a significant amount of time gunning for some of that. Also I'm using an engine and language I've never touched before, so... Slow going. Hooray.
Speaking of guns, I've been tweaking enemy weapons like I said I would! There's now a minimum level for patterns. I miiiiiiiiiight also have to increase the cost of having many bullets. More, that is.
