There are now baddies for you to fight! Yeah!
Baddies have rifles, march toward you, jump over obstacles, and are each slightly different in terms of speed and aggressiveness.
There are male and female baddies, with about 1/4 of them being female by default.
Joypad support has also been added!
Controls, player stats, baddie stats, weapon stats, and plenty of level generator knobs can be found in the file 'config.py' under the 'lib' folder.
(Don't worry, it's very heavily commented, and the control settings are at the top of the file!)
Enemies take two hits to kill, and you can take five before you die.
You have seven lives. If you run out of lives, a new level is generated for you. If you beat the level (Which is very difficult, and something I haven't accomplished yet...) then I suppose you'll run out of things to do, as progression between levels hasn't been implemented yet.
Tomorrow will bring the other protagonist, Jack, as well as a character selection screen.
You can pick up a copy of the latest demo here!
