Missed last weeks status report... oops, sorry!
STUN Runner is at Milpitas Golfland, and has been Friday (6/16) afternoon.
We have made these minor modifications to the game twice since that time:
* Put in a "teach" function that allows us to freeze the game and
display a text message on the screen -- such as when we detect the
player riding on the wrong side of the tunnel in a curve.
* Adjusted the time limit on Level 16.
* Updated some graphics including showing boost pads in the maps.
We are currently working on adding new tunnel sections, and improving enemy
variety, especially with the flying enemies.
We have PCB sets for the two "ride on" cabinets. Glenn is in the process
of assembling the board sets and readying each for Field Test on 7/7/89.
One set has been given to Carole Cameron.
The date for the "earnings" Field Test with the ride-on cabinet had to be
slipped as the fiberglass prototype for the control panel (vacu-form) piece
will not arrive in time to have the cabinet ready for 6/30. As the next
week is a 3-day week, we have changed the Field Test date to 7/7.
There will be a meeting today (6/22) to go over cabinet graphics concepts.
