• Depth is now easier to see, around walls there are small shadows, to indicate the height difference, sadly it slightly increases loading time
• Increased global brightness
• Improved performance again, drawing is around 2 times quicker than before
• The release script has been updated, I can now have the Snorms library released separately (platform independent), and the Snorms android project is released at some other point (with Android specific stuffs, it’s only a very small project). I had some troubles with obfuscation as the android project is depending on the obfuscated library, but it should be ok now.
• Updated game icons
• Added ad support using AdMob (google), a full screen ad will be displayed during game loading, it should be good that way, as loading is just some useless time for player

As a result first release has been built today, it is the 1.1b559 (as it continues counting from Snorms versions), there are still a few things to change before actual beta release, but we are almost there ! Once I corrected these last small problems I will send the game to some friends for review, then I will make changes if they see errors or have ideas to submit.

During this time I will try to update some side-stuffs:

• Update website
• Reserve the url domain (and make the game name public)
• Update graphical stuffs (logo,…)

And if I get bored with these stuffs I will also try to update some more levels.

In conclusion, I might be able to release the first public beta release before the end of the week.
