Wow. For a second there I though QP really was going to link to boobs. How naive I am!

Oh, but I did; there's plenty of them in that picture! It's just that they're all on the planet surface, hundreds of kilometers away.

(What do you think the Hubble Space Telescope was <i>really</i> for?)

no, it is going to be called "space debris rocketing toward the earth, ending an era of space photography and also a tribe of natives"

Oh hey I guess I am making it.

That's a title screen madtom made forever ago.

This is the most amazing method to select a level ever. I spent HOURS trying to get everything working right. You (the *) orbit your planet and when you input a planet to travel to you swing around until you get to it.

I'm going to keep information on the enemies and levels on the down low as well as how to get alternate endings.
The engine (as I made a level) isn't bug free goddamit. I need to do better testing :(

There are now 6 auras to choose from.
There are 7 types of enemies.

Auraless/Black Aura/X Aura/Nulls because i can't decide on a name ever. (also stolen from my little descriptions in the engine intself) - Auraless and ruthless. They can be killed with any aura.

I will tell you- Level 3 - half rnd half seek. On contact it locks your Aura preventing you from changing it until you kill a level 3 Null.

Red Aura "Strength" - Red is a dumb jock!
Blue Aura "Speed" - Classic blue Aura fucks with my mind since it wasn't supposed to be so difficult.
Green Aura "IQ" - Classic green aura does what he does best. (Fails to live up to expectations as the worst aura in the original game)
Purple Aura "Brick" - Similar to Red. Moves slow, packs a far larger punch than red. Will move towards the player. Leaves a corpse to obstruct player.

I will tell you Level 2 - Speeds up (4). Deals 6 damage per round. Randomly moves 1/2 times. Two hit corpse decays with touch.

Cyan Aura "Leech" - Fiercely hunt you down and cling to you. Blue+Green at their finest. When they attack they follow you until they die.

I will tell you Level 1 - (1). Runs around completely randomly. Leeches without moving you. 1hp per leech.

Yellow Aura - Shhh.

In addition to this all auras excluding X and Yellow have a new stealth enemy. Some of which are neater than others.

The game will be split into two files. 15 levels each. Possibly more in the 2nd. Gameplay is now semi non-linear. You can choose from 3 sets of levels from the start. Because there are too many Auras now there is no balancing. Expect 2-3 endings tops. You will have a bar on top to show you your current aura. There will be a bit more of a plot (I have a textfile with some bullshit about the creation of the universe and it's a total ripoff of Dessica (it even uses silly names like THE HOLLOW ONE and THE CREATOR)

You'll fight every demigod this time.

There will be no beta testing with you filthy people. Once the engine is fine tuned everything else is as well.

Also it's MadTom's birthday present and will be released on September 27th. Unless I get slightly lazy in which case it will be my birthday present and released on September 29th. If it takes just as long as the original Aura took it will be released around Thanksgiving.

So by that logic there's only one star wars movie and it's like 12 hours long.

When I named that series, I had these names:

Operation: GAMMA VELORUM, Part 1
Operation: GAMMA VELORUM, Part 2
Operation: GAMMA VELORUM, Part 3
Operation: GAMMA VELORUM, Part 4

Not these names:

Operation: GAMMA VELORUM
Operation: GAMMA VELORUM 2
Operation: GAMMA VELORUM 3
Operation: GAMMA VELORUM 4
