Week 12

Definitely now in the 'polish' stage!

This week has seen many new features and gameplay tweaks implemented:

• New larger enemy type, with a slower movement speed but MUCH more health than the smaller enemy
• New font used for score (and in progress menu development), using Aldo the Apache by AJ Paglia
• Particles particles particles! Where the laser hits & when enemies die
• More balanced spawning behaviour. The enemies spawned at once now decreases slightly as the speed at which doors open increases.

I also created a survey and ran a testing session with classmates this week. Main feedback was:

• Enemy speed was slightly too fast, this has now been changed
• Some players reported enemies becoming stuck in the door. The spawn behaviour still needs to be updated to fix this.
• Generally everyone found the controls very intuitive & the visual style good
