- Design Clarification
The pure puzzle game has multiple stand-alone levels. Player has to collect all cows in a level to finish it. There are totally 6 levels with increasing difficulty. More space effects are presented in the levels.
- New feature
A real Billy: We now have a real Billy drawn by ourselves instead of using images from the Internet. Billy has 8 frames to show animations:
Animation of Billy includes: Shoot a lasso, burst, brake
Smooth orbit: Fixed the orbit gap. We are still using vector-based method to implement the orbiting while not having orbit gap.
Planet Gravity: Spaceship will be pulled towards the orbiting planet slowly. So eventually the ship will crash on the planet if orbiting too long.
Guidline: Used to provide more information such as gravity field of a planet and wormhole pairs.
Brake: decelerate
Moving Planet: Planet can orbit a sun
More animations: crash, rope, lasso, background, burst, brake
Transition screens More levels (6 in total) Music and more sound effects
