Midway Through The Second Level We Find CW Leonis (IRC +10216), The Dying Star Surrounded By A Carbon

An accurate depiction of testing a new code for the first time.

After a lot of tweaks and redraws, I finally reached a satisfying (and cute) running animation for the little bird.

The Evil Eye (spiral galaxy NGC 4826) watches over the lost bird as the player begins the second level of the game.

PS: I may consider redrawing or making some touch ups later as it looks a far cry from the amazing image it is based on.

Started to draw some of the other character that will apear on the game, besides Riki.

Fo now we have Riki's older brother and Johnny, Riki's best friend.

Working on the animations for a new cutscene, poor Riki can't catch a break.

A little look at the dash mechanics of the game.

Despite being safer on land, Riki still will have to watch out for the dangerous hazards.

Despite all headache, the chaotic unpredictability of this gravitational fields can create some interesting behaviors
