Diary Entries

Beginning of day 3

Didn't post much in the past 2 days so here is a status update: Github repo: https://github.com/benoxoft/Wikipedia1942 A lot of work has been done on the UI so far. Not much on the gameplay. Most sprites are animated and there is a background. Today I'll keep working on the user interface.
