Last thing about my YoYoGames compo entry :S (Night Guard) I made the main engine of the player movement long time ago but I stopped and didn't continue due to military training and GP project so I don't know if I will have time to finish it.

And about starting with FlashPunk I wanted to do that so hardly but I only use it for 2 hours then I had went to sleep and from that time I didnt see it again due to the same reasons for not continue working on Night Guard.

Thats all what I can say right now hoping that I can do something good. May god be with me :) Thanks for everyone who still come to my blog I will try to make frequently news now and often after my military training which will end on next thursday :).

Thats all for now :)
