SpringFling – Parachutes in action

Well it’s been a few days since the last update, so I thought I’d show some new goodies. I’ve been hard at work on the backend for achievements, online scoring, and other various implementations and fixes, but there’s also some eye candy to show.

First up, there’s a new powerup in action. The parachute!

This allows for much needed in-air influence over the spring at certain critical times, such as when your jetpack runs out of juice and you’re stranded over a pit of doom. Boom, parachute. Now you’re like frikkin James Bond, floating back down smoothly, the ladies eyeing your shiny metallic finish. Smoooooth.

Also, I have the art created for my next powerup, the jetpack/rocket. Things are coming along nicely. :D
