Add random arrow and apple spawning logic during the gameplay state that matches the original apple catch.

Re-implement graphics and the ability to keep track of the score

Add title + background tiles back and implement it as a state in the gameplay loop

Small styling nit that would more accurately reflect the data being loaded into VRAM.

• Add apple falling and movement back into the game
• Make sure code can handle extending apples for additional features (i.e. bad apples, multiple apples falling)

• Implement arrow behavior into the game
• Determine whether we should remake the arrow sprite due to the single pixel height difference between directions
• Determine if a mirroring solution is viable (since GG and SMS do not support sprite mirroring)

Having a static obstacle can allow for more dynamic gameplay. The spider will come down and stay in a spot for a bit, forcing Blobbo to duck around it.

AC:

• A spider spawns occasionally and can cause a game over

It's a mess – fix it

Make sure we use a .h file

AC:
"Press Start" is animated on the title screen, blinking.

User should be able to press start to replay the game after they lose

Gameplay can be sped up by giving Blobbo a rechargable dash.

AC:

• Blobbo can dash in a direction after pressing the B button
• Blobbo's sprite changes during the dash

Smooth out the extraneous pixels so that the bushels look smoother.

Code would be cleaner using typedef syntax for all structs.

Arrow spawning is very abrupt and sometimes unreactable – adding a visual indicator (like a caution sign) before an arrow spawns would make the gameplay experience more fair.

When playing the start noise on the Analogue Pocket (and the noise is not interrupted), different noises continuously play.

Also occurs when playing a Game Boy ROM on the Analogue Pocket. The discrepancy is definitely due to different implementation of sound hardware.

Implement the:

• Game over state
• Intro screen state
• Title screen state
• Gameplay state

Redo the intro screen and load in the tileset/map so that you don't continue using GBDK's default printf() function.

There are speed issues with the game – certain game states cause the main game loop to execute slower or faster, and its noticeable.

Make sure that all game states are relatively consistent with each other in regards to execution timing.

Add pause feature so that a user can pause during the main gameplay state.
