As a suggestion, could the rocket launcher be somehow "flattened" a bit more? IMHO it seems like it's pointing upwards in that screenshot.

Hmmm...I agree with you there.  But I honestly can't think of what to do to change it--my 3d pixel-art skills are not the best.

Actually, this would probably be a good time for a progress update.  I just fixed the bug where enemies were disappering into walls, a problem that existed in the original Gemini.  At least I think I fixed it.  Also, I fixed a bug where health bars were popping up even without an enemy on-screen.

Now to continue work on saving games :)

Do you mean enemies were just vanishing or did they just showed up halfway into the wall or something? Also I'm glad there's new progress. :)

Enemies showed up halfway into the wall :)

Not much new progress, but I haven't been lazy.  I'm having to create a new format for saved games, so it will take a little bit of time.  It will be worth it ;D

As you can imagine, working on the game has gotten me more and more comfortable with the Gemini engine, so here's some new features I might be adding.  They are low on my list of priorities (meaning if they will keep me from finishing the game, I won't add them), so please don't bug me about them  ;D

1. Collisions with objects such as trees and robots.  If you bump into an object head on, you come to a complete stop.  If you bump into an object at an angle, you "slide" across it until you can move past it.
2. Objects will make great places to hide from enemy fire, but will also block your line of fire.  I'm 99% sure I will be adding this one.
3. Rockets will have actual moving ammunition rather than simple firing animations
4. Multiplayer.  If I add this one, link play will take top priority over AI.

Iirc he's trying to support the 83pse's as well, also most games have the I/O anyway.
(not to mention the USB is barely documented :P)

Think of all people that don't even have the USB port on their calcs and that don't have the choice, except maybe buy a new calculator, that is surely more expensive than buying a cable. Also, it is Hot Dog's game, and at the end, he will always be deciding what he will do.

I understand your feelings, but it takes a lot of work to make a game for both link and USB.  In the end, all calculators (including Nspires with 84+ keypads) have link ports, and a link cable isn't expensive.

Progress: Games now save successfully.  Before I write code for loading games, I'm now working on freeing up RAM so that the calculator can save a "backup" copy of games.  Basically, if RAM gets cleared, the games will stay safe in the extra RAM page.
