Outlook bad
Among a few other things, the level loader is almost complete. The levels are loaded from indexed color png files with each file representing one layer of the 3d world (the one in the screenshot uses 3 files). The game uses OpenGL with orthographic projection. There's not much interactivity yet, the camera can be rotated around the level.
I doubt I'll get this done by the deadline, but I'll still keep the idea a secret ;). I've got much more accomplished than in other competitions I've tried making a game for (pyweek and LD48) so I'm happy :). Live and learn...
