But I have finally got the core mechanic (the ledge grab) working, after much procrastination and head/desk interfacing. Climbing the tower is now more forgiving and more exhilarating, but a bit too easy. I’ve tarted it up a bit late last night when my poor brain couldn’t handle debugging any more JavaScript.

Next up, in priority order:

• Title/win/death screens and logic.
• Obstacles – spikes and whatnot.
• Helper AI and respawn points
• Music and audio
• Optimizations – I want the tower to go INSANELY high, and individual cube colliders aren’t cheap.
• Hands – I wanted you to see your own hands grabbing the ledge, but it’s a big job. May have to drop it

15 hours to go!
