Development has been going pretty slow these past few days, exams are taking my energy away!
Specially history, since my memory tends to fail me quite often XD! Ive had times where I try to move code from one class to another (For a cleaner workspace, I tend to make a huge mess with my code!) and completely forget I had something on the clipboard. There goes precious code I took my
time working on D;

On another note, I got a new artist for the HUD! Cant wait to see what comes of it :D The current one looks too plain, It definitely needs a rework. Im just glad the artwork is getting more attention than before, im getting alot of stuff to work with!

Someone was also kind enough to contribute with some water attacks!
Huge thanks to niveker7, which will be getting a shoutout next update!
Here is one of the sprites, I loved it.

The image above is a demonstration of hydro pump.
There will be tweaks ingame making a more fancy attack animation.

Someone asked me why Ive stopped working on repong.

The truth is, repong isnt receiving the attention I thought it would. It isnt exactly an amazing game as one would put it XD I planned on working on the project only to improve my programming skills. And trust me, Ive gained alot more experience with it. Ive been working on repong since december of 2012, and have rewritten the engine over 4 times already. I had fun working on the project, dont get me wrong! I do plan to work on it in a future date, but for now repong will be put to rest. Collision detection was the only thing I didnt improve on, you can pretty much guess why XD! They are just too simple for me. Thats when I decided to work on another game, which is destiny.

However, I wont let hours of hard work go to waste :D An update will eventually come out soon once I have some free time on my hands and I decide its time for it. Repong isnt what I planned it would be, it still needs more crazy lazers and crap. An ability to split the board in half would be an option. Teasing the player never gets old <3
