State of The Island

Sorry I haven't been able to post lately, school is hell (I really mean it), so anyway enough of about school. If you haven't read the new State of The Island, here is a quote about it's new features and the sharks with friggin' lasers attached to thier heads (or what ever you guys call it, what I really care about is that it comes out soon).

"About the new update, this was a really fun one to program, the underwater area is getting jam packed with features which is a far cry from when we first added it. There is a function toggle where you can switch from Bait Master Anchor to the Chum Bucket. When you pick chum out of the bucket, the shark swims with full laser headgear and tries to eat the chum. You can hand the chum to a pygmy at which point they look around with a Panicked look on their face until the shark eats them along with the chum. Also, while the shark is on screen, you have a laser aimer that is controlled by the accelerometer, kind of like Doom Resurrection. You tilt aim the target, and zap as many Pygmies as you can. It's not really a game because it's really easy to play, but we are thinking of making a more challenging version in a future update. With this update, the underwater area is handled just like one of the islands, so you can use the island toggle to switch to underwater without having to do the tsunami and it remembers it you quit while underwater so it can start there when you come back. I put this part in because we will need it for the next update that contains the new location."
