After a little hiatus, I'm back full steam on the project, I've added a new gun that shoots spread bullets in five directions and I've continued the story a bit. The gun deals less damage than the regular weapon but fires slightly further and has the much beloved spread that fans of Contra games will remember. 

After picking up the tenth infopack, the player shifts the world into a fiery alternate dimension. Then you fight the first boss which is your ex-buddy Brigadier B. What is he up to? I wonder how I am going to code the bosses's artificial intelligence, maybe fuzzy logic and state machines, that was my bread and butter in university. In any case, 

Currently working on: Creating the first boss

Time spent on the project so far: 116 hours

Screenshot after the jump: New gun, new challenges
