Demo for Level 1 released

Project ZapCat prototype
A downloadable game for Windows

My first major goal with ZapCat is now complete.  You can now play the first level of the game as I imagined it as a little kid.  Now that this is complete, it will be quite a while until the next playable update.  My goal was to give a basic idea of how the game plays, and I've done that.  Next is to design and create the remaining 14 levels, along with programming an assortment of enemies, bosses, and stage hazards/devices.  Along the way, I'll also be updating the game graphically to something that isn't a placeholder and composing new songs for it.  I'll also need to make menus and other assorted things necessary for a videogame to function.  Finally there will be some polish updates and stuff.  So, I won't put out a new demo until the game close to completion, because most updates are going to be for things that exist 'beyond the demo' so to speak.  Also, with my first major milestone complete, that also means that I will be focusing more on school and on some short side projects that I've put on the backburner for a bit.
