More Rainstorm Progress

I've spent some time over the past couple weeks working on The Rainstorm again, and it's getting pretty close to an update. There's one minor bug to fix, and I want to add a pause menu. After that I'll release a new version.

Tonight I created some graphics for the menu buttons, instead of the rather unattractive QNX buttons.

I also changed the font, which turned out to take lots longer than I thought.

Recently I also added a help screen and tweaked the gameplay speed to make it a little less boring.  I still want to radically alter the gameplay, but I might have to wait until the NDK comes out so I can code it up in C++ and OpenGL to get the raw horsepower for the visual effects.
