Landings and Levels

Summary: In which a weapon is worked on, but shelved; some in-system lighting is tweaked; one level is merged into another (and a third changed as a result); a level is further built; upgrades may be removed; and "landing sites" are implemented.

Greetings and salutations!

This week's screenshot shows two new parts to one of the levels of the Vertical Slice Moon:

Neon Beams

Summary: In which the encounter in the Crystal Moon is reworked; continuous-beam weapons are implemented; the boss-fight with the liche sees some changes; and the save-icon is replaced.

Greetings and salutations!

This week's screenshot shows a somewhat-neon revision to the encounter in the Crystal Moon!

Between scheduled power-outages where I live and a family matter that rather impacted me, the week just past was, I feel, slower than most. Still, some things did get done:
