> Go Here < to access a larger scale of it. Have to look at better scaling for smaller widths or a way to full screen it. Store implemented! (still need to do the scoring between levels, occupy the player’s attention while slowing down the train) Current scoring: Destroy a UFO, $100, make one flee, $50 Obviously, need lots of...
