Creating a rail shooter in Rust and Yew (HTML5/Canvas gamedev) | Electro Cat Studios Live Stream
Channel: Electro Cat Studios
Date: 03/02/2024

**UPDATE** - Disaster struck and I didn't hit the "Go Live" button. Sadly I have no backup. I will leave this small portion of the stream up. For the code - I will create a branch for it but will roll back my changes for the next stream so that we can "Go Live" and do it all properly this time! I set out to make sure everything I did for the game would be captured on stream, and that remains true, apologies to those who waited for the stream to start only to discover it was over. 
**END UPDATE**

In this second live stream we will be adding in some graphics and laying out the framework for the distance calculations - to simulate distance. None of the code has been written ahead of time, so we will be creating assets and adding them in, as well as shaping the framework for calculating distance traveled by every shot. 

The game is going to be a wizard theme rail shooter, in a similar vein to Virtua-Cop and other games of the same genre. I'd like to start adding in some new mechanics, borrowing from games such as Magicka where you have to cast different spells using key presses to alter the weapons, but the game will grow organically. When there is enough to upload I will make available a hosted version of the code so that people can try out the outcomes from these live-streams. 

If you fancy having a look at the code, it is available on Github at: https://github.com/electrocatstudios/vcclone/. If you take the code and make your own version please feel free to share it if you like, I would love to feature forks and variations on the live-stream.
