Not sure how much we're expected to have done tomorrow, but hopefully I've done enough. I'm annoyed with how long it's taking though. In my timetable thing, I said I wanted to have done a whole level - all three tiers - the finished story and more characters before Christmas. Well, it's now after Christmas and I've only done an isometric plan of one tier, half the story and very little on the characters. I definitely thought it'd be easier than it was. I guess I forgot that one level with 3 tiers = 3 levels.

I'm quite happy with the plan though. I told Stu I'd only done 1 new picture for GDD, which is only sort of a half truth. While it is only 1 picture, it's one big plan with at least 4 screenshots and a walkthrough. Not great, but not too bad. It currently looks like this:

The original is ridiculously big: 10,000x10,000 pixels and 600mb. Hopefully I can keep adding more to it tonight.

I decided to do the bosses based on the chakras. The good news is that it gives me a base to start designing. The bad news is that I have 9 levels planned, but there are only 7 chakras. I'll have to work around that somehow. I'm thinking that I could use the Third Eye as a three-in-one sort of chakra - two bosses could be first and second eyes maybe.
