New music and Yoyogames.com troubles

Prepping to put in some new music (finally), Flying V now has tsg1zzn's Super Sound System installed. (I used the handy .gex extension version by Melcastro.)

I even cranked out a few cheapie test tracks in Garageband...hahaha. The one I made for the first boss actually came out kinda good, though, so it's probably staying. <_< Anyways, I know I don't get much traffic here; but I think it's worth mentioning anyways: YYG is apparently having some virus trouble, so be wary of clicking on any game links here for the time being.

Progress?

*Finally* making some progress on level 2.

New snakes - they're more like the standard snakes you see in most shmups, where you can break off any body segment and see the 'skeleton' underneath.
New enemy - kill the little nasties and the ship flies off! :)

Other stuff :
- Green snakes are more interesting and fun now (ie they don't suck/aren't completely FUBAR)
- Enemy test mode added. You can adjust the time interval between enemy spawns and how many times the pattern loops.

Holy crap, key config!

Big deal, I know; but it is my first.

FV : Some things

-Redid Fire Eagle's sprites
-Redid orange tank sprites

-Snazzy new big number font and other random new graphics
-New Medal Mode (ok, I just swiped what I had in ZpUltra; but it's new for this game at least)
-End stage display/medal total countdown
-Arrangement is now strictly per-moment time based (like XYX) rather than loop based
-New enemy patterns (made possible due to simplifying a lot of what I already had)

The next step is pretty much just rebuilding stage 1. Now that I don't have messy loops to deal with, I think I can make the timing much, much smoother than before.

Sorry about the watermark, the ugly low res and the lack of sound... it's the absolute best I could get with my crappy pc. >_>

Also, Dxtory is officially the winner out of all the screen recording software I've tried.
