New screenshot: Not Pretty



What you see in this screenshot is a UFO (the player) attacking a farmhouse with a destructo-beam. Collision boundaries are drawn in blue to aid in debugging. At the center of the farmhouse you can see a semi-transparent health bar (for the house's health) which is in dire need of a makeover and relocation.

There are many design questions yet to be sorted out, and one lesson learned tonight is that I need to spend some quality time with similar games to see how they solved similar problems.
