And derailing a devlog is awesome. Back on topic! Yeah, flash between them every frame.
I would say using different lighting for different areas rather than, flashing between each tint. But yeah!

DAY 308 - February 20, 2012 - Reworked the design and animation on bats and mother bats.
 I'm changing the way I approach enemies quite a bit, so I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for different enemies?

One thing we were thinking of in a game I'm doing at work: a bouncing "pang" style enemy that splits into two smaller parts when you shoot it.
Bouncers are quite difficult to deal with, the player just over-thinks how they're going to dodge them.

Fireflies as a non aggressive enemy. Kill them, and light fades or even goes out completely.

Yeah, like maybe some kind of dimension warper. He can open holes in space to send your arrows back at you.

In fact, you might include something like that in a puzzle somewhere (shoot into one portal, arrow comes out the other one in the same direction to hit a target you wouldn't be able to hit otherwise). Something zombie/mudman-like that rises from the ground and/or sinks back into the ground to teleport around the player could be neat.

Along the lines of the "arrows go through them" suggestions above, how about a Gelatinous Cube. No really, think about it.

It absorbs normal arrows but is highly flammable, so once it absorbs a fire arrow then it burns up?

Traps are always much more useful to level design than enemies. You'd be able to use a slow-jelly-block as a part of a timer switch puzzle.

An enemy that, when shot, will explode into fiery napalm fireworks of doom. Pros: you can kill other enemies with it Cons: it moves really fast and is small
Also: it explodes when it touches you.

Have a narrow shaft full of these that you have to navigate safely. If you touch a single one, they all blow up in a chain reaction, burning you to death and destroying your goal. :3 Fireflies as a non aggressive enemy. Kill them, and light fades or even goes out completely.
Atmospheric creatures like this are a great idea, especially. This kind of world needs to have that extra spice to make it feel alive- and when there are no creatures, it will feel even more lonely.

DAY 309 - February 21, 2012 - Add in a prototype bouncing enemy and mirror enemy.
- Worked on backpack items.
- Added backpack items to saving/loading.
Awesome ideas guys! I really like the bouncing and mirror enemies in particular (I added in prototype versions of both). I'm also definitely gonna add in non-hostile critters, but I'm saving that for later.
