Pilot is going to return...

Well… many of you don't know what that means, but I'm going to work on Pilot again..

Hooray!

I'm currently working on ways to make the game load a bit faster, so so far I'm using external backgrounds, that only load when necessary, and I've turned of the preloading of music, so it might make a difference…

(if not then i'll make them external as well…)

I'm not making the sprites external though, because I have loads of them and it would take too long…

About the game itself, I'm not sure what I'll do…

I've implemented the story introduction text to the beginning of story mode, but I also want to make a animated part afterwards…

so that might take a while…

but after that, I'm going to work on story mode..

Which is going to be cool, since it will be multipathed, and I plan to have multiple endings, (how long this will take is uncertain..)

Mission mode will now be only 25 levels, intead of the 30 planned, (I want to make the last level a boss level… A really hard one…)

I'VE ALSO GOT A WII!!

Yay!! But…

I can't play it until christmas…. (christmas present you see…)

Kinda sucks really…

considering that I live in a non-christian family, and I have my mock GCSE exams as well.. (they start on the 4th of January… sob…)

So I'm really busy!!

EDIT: do any of you guys know the GML equivalent to the room stretch button in the room properties, cos that would be useful to me now…

thanks…

GCSE are the final stage of education in england, school-wise, after that its college/six form, and then university/work.
