Today I did a lot of behind-the-scenes work. Namely, I translated all of my menu code over into Unity's GUI system so that buttons worked a bit better, and I could properly implement a gesture recognition system for a few parts of the game. I also got level selection to work properly.

Tomorrow, I plan on switching gears a bit and developing a level editor. Since I'll be out of the country for a whole month and I have 160 levels to design, I figure getting a level editor working is a really good idea, so I can make levels on my tablet and plop the files right into the game when I get back.

After that's done, I'll begin working on the music. I plan on having 5 tracks for the game: one for each difficulty, and a backing track for the main menu. It's going to be some semblance of ambient electronica, sort of like a lot of the stuff I've already written.

Speaking of music, here's some you should listen to:

In news not relating to the game, Gunpoint is coming out! I've been watching the game for a few years, and having it finally arrive is going to be great. Especially since the game arrives right on the date I leave for Germany.

Other game releases that looked interesting are The Swapper, as well as the latest Humble Bundle. I haven't bought either of them yet, but I plan on doing so soon.
