Just added some rudimentary lighting. I'd like to get a bit of a
gradient on the lighting effect, will see about doing that. However the
cube shaped lighting sort of matches the style of the art - nothing else
that's square in the game is really square in real life. Maybe I'll
just leave it the way it is. Quite a bit of other stuff has been completed as well at this point - switches and timers, cloud type levels, four direction map and a few other random things. The feature list I've got in my notes is getting longer but is still quite doable. Just need to sit down and pick a few things for each level and then design them out.  |

| Okay, one more set of shots... and a build! Try it out yourself! See the key controls after download instructions: Mac users: Download Davey3.mac.zip. Unpack it somewhere and double-click "Davey" inside it - it should be the only file with a blue BlitzMax icon and has a blue finder highlight. I'll clean up the Mac version pretty soon so it's a bit easier to run. Windows users: Download Davey3.sfx.exe and just run it. It will unpack itself into a temporary directory and cleanup after it's done running. Controls: Arrows Move B Throw a boomerang - tip: the boomerang can collect objects for you Space Jump D Turn on debug - drops framerate considerably I need some sleep Hope you enjoy. I'm going to bed now.   |

| Lots of work remaining. Currently the game loads and displays a single "screen" - with the following working: - Boomerang weapon - Collision with NPC takes away a life - Jumping on an NPC kills it - Boomerang collision kills NPCs  |
