Nesteris - ha that's funny, sorry it's confusing. I don't know why I chose the buttons the way I did honestly.
I started working on the engine in September, but was using some different graphics and originally had planned a different kind of game. I had these ideas for this game kicking around my head for literally years though - maybe over a decade - and I've worked and reworked the ideas off and on here and there. I'm just now in a position to devote some real time to it.
I started using a program that Scirra Construct was based on (at least in part), Multimedia Fusion, and have been doing graphics for some time. Everything I guess finally came to a head here, like I was saying.
Thanks for all the feedback and interactions, amigo.
