TODO

HIGH

  • Draw side panel separator is sometimes a white line and sometimes black

Medium

Low

  • More Powerups:
    • Bomb
    • Laser (can go through metal?)
    • Something else?
    • SHEILD: Backup wall below the paddle that breaks after it is hit but can save you one time
    • Double paddle mode -- paddle turns into two paddles
    • Tutorial?
  • If you get multiball things get way too fast (are balls interacting with each other?) maybe time should not increase linearly with bounces

Bugs

  • Ball can go through the very right side of the paddle if it is right at the edge
  • was able to get a ball to bounce side to side and never come down
  • BUG: level ends before bricks are gone -- something with brickCount? -- does this still happen?
  • You can still hold sticky and gun in situations DOUBLE CHECK IF THIS STILL HAPPENS

Consider / Ideas

  • Should we make each pill say what it does as it rolls down?
  • Comment code better
  • Level file format?
  • Ideally render all the stuff on the right side into a sprite so it's not drawn over and over https://devforum.play.date/t/90-rotatable-text/3325/4
  • probably need to split bullet into two bullets
  • Should speed progress if you are stuck to paddle -- you could be shooting. Maybe we should stop time even so
  • Manually calculating pill collisions will allow us to remove collisions with paddle completely, saving computation
  • Bricks should come down as time passes (but only go so far)
  • Specify where pills are stored, not random
  • Animate paddle's movement, even though it can move by large #'s, just to make it smoother? Or will this create lag?
  • Create 25 levels

Completed

✅- Remove life if ball falls too low ✅- Start with ball stuck to paddle and button press to release ✅- Limit number of gun shots at any time -- it's too easy to shoot fast ✅ - Sticky ✅ - Extra life ✅ - Multi ✅ - Flip ✅ - Shrink ✅ - SLOW ✅ - Animation when you get a powerup? ✅- Game goes faster and faster as time passes ✅- Now with MULTI ball, we need to count the number of active balls before we decrement life ✅- Spreading from the highest ball isn't working. Height is in inverse. Are we doing it right? ✅- Sticky doesn't work with multiball, and sometimes gets stuck on edge -- just turned it off blah ✅- Speed up timer happens right away, but shoudl start when you first shoot the ball ✅- Gun bullet sprite is ugly ✅- Different name ✅- Home Splash Screen ✅- Remove ball and replace entirely with multiball array ✅- Show speed somehow in a guage ✅- Test speed up timer at highest speeds. Is it too fast? no it's ok ✅- When there are multiple balls shown on the screen, and you shoot, they all shoot upwards, even if not on the paddle ✅- was able to grab sticky on multi and some balls stuck in the middle of the sky - Need to remove concept of "isStuck" to paddle and move it to the ball ✅- balls once stuck don't move with paddle ✅- Sticky -- if you keep moving to edge it goes off teh edge and weird stuff happens ✅- Change collision on paddle to manual -- just look at y of ball and if it collided ✅- Fake Homescreen ✅- Fake custscenes ✅- At top speed, the ball sometimes goes through the paddle ✅-- Don't shoot if the ball is stuck to paddle ✅-- Real Home Screen ✅-- When you finish a level the balls don't reset (they are just floating where they were before) ✅-- You should not be able to sit sticky and shoot as much as you want. Either have a shoot timer, or prevent guns + sticky or something... ✅-- Create first 5 Levels ✅-- Way less bricks in lower levels -- too hard ✅-- Bullets and Pills keep going after a level ends ✅-- Create the cutscenes ✅-- Small is too hard to read on a real device ✅-- BUG: Flip doesn't affect the crank ✅-- Use total bounces to calculate speed, instead of time elapsed ✅-- Better end game ✅-- Say something on death ✅-- Allow using Up and Down to advance text ✅-- When showing powerup text, draw white background behind so we can read it ✅-- Graphic for the front panel that shows up in the menu
