-- Check out the new menu screen! Still working on it, but it's coming along nicely! I added some buttons to inform the player what keys can be pressed here and I hope to add some effects to make them look animated. And literally just about 5 minutes ago I figured out how to highlight the current selection.
-- I also worked on the planet background logic. "Story" mode will have scripted backgrounds while "Arcade" mode will have more randomized backgrounds.
-- I forgot to mention this one earlier, but I halved the range for the rapid laser. This encourages the player to use the other two weapons that have full range.
