I don't think any of this weekend's updates could be considered ground-breaking, but here we are:

Added sounds-
Thruster noise
Explosion (plays randomly when you're out of health and crashing)
Power-up sound
Alarm (currently unused)

Added a larger version of the main font for some screens.

Wrote code to make certain text cycle from red to purple and back again.

Wrote code so when you collect a power-up a message will zoom in on-screen to tell you what it is, then zoom back out after 3 seconds.

Adjusted the timeline so the speed increases over shorter periods (which gradually get longer the faster you go). I think this needs shortening further.

And the biggest and most important change? I hid the mouse pointer ;)



I'm getting to the point where I need to consider actually drawing some wall graphics to replace the solid red.
