A new version of Gum just dropped. Along with bug fixes, this version includes a new variable reference system - it's like "shaders for layout" for ultimate flexibility if the built-in types aren't enough. Find out more: github.com/vchelaru/Gum...

I may need to make these moon beasts a bit more aggressive.
Right now I kinda just wanna hug them when I see them jump.

This is the moon section of the dreamlands level. So imagine craters and lots of little moon stones.

We're definitely avoiding going down the engine route and leaving it to others, like FlatRedBall (flatredball.com), to build their engines on top and for UI something like docs.flatredball.com/gum, but there are other tools/engines too.

Just working on a new flying* cat enemy's path pattern.
FlatRedBall has a really cool path editor in which I can spend hours just playing around with this.

Today I'm testing some new enemy path patterns in prep for our next level.
The enemy's name is Hissing Dio. It's named after my cat Dio, whom I named in honor of Ronnie James Dio.
