After the initial trouble with The Gimp, I’m back on track with Wasabi Defense. I couldn’t get the original Gimp to work, so I tried the portable version, wich is designed to run off removable media and doesn’t require installation. Not the most elegant solution, but it works. The first thing I had to do was adjust the brightness of the background. It looks different on my new LCD monitor than on my old CRT, so I had to darken it a bit. Right now I’m finishing up the last bits of work on this version, and I’m already planning the next step. This will incorporate the behind-the-scenes mechanism wich controls the construction of the base and keeps track of the progress. I’ll post another screenshot when I’m finished with this version.
