Fiddling with Achievements and Stars Visualizing
I have changed some code surrounding the stars and how they display, and also am tinkering with how achievements get handed out.

Achievement Two: Exploding Ball-galoo
- The first achievement I didn't see myself getting, I may have triggered it while I was testing in a test environment, but I didn't see the Steam overlay play, so maybe I need to change the code, or maybe I need to launch and test the app from Steam. So that is what I'm doing. -

-To do this I added an achievement for the first time one uses the Toaster's power.

First Star Achievement?
I have added code in that makes me believe one should be able to get the First Star achievement unlocked on Steam.

When the Stars Align
- Deleted some extraneous text and buttons from the home screen. - Got the stars to Align again. When one beats a level they used to not get the stars properly assigned to the level they just beat. I removed a minus 1 and it seems to have fixed the problem.

Bug fix: Name on level screens showing incorrectly causing crashes
Good friend showed that the game was crashing when trying to play levels, it seemed to be only level 1 which was the issue. It was an array out of bounds issue, which also led me to realize that the name the game was displaying for the current level was incorrect. Dug around fixe

Dug around fixed it. And now the levels should show the name they were originally given.

Ted the Toaster!
Ted the toaster is here! As a part of attempting to have a weekly update schedule adding a new "hero" was up next on the list of things to get done. Ted has has the special ability (which is what you get when you hit a blue peg) that explodes and clears out an area of pegs.

Original postGeneral Changes
- 7 new levels and 1 new hero.
- Full Screen mode now available. Can press Full Screen to maximize the size of the window.
- Stars should show up for every level now.
- Main Menu updated
- Added a "RESET" button which lets you play through to get a lower fail score.
- "LEVEL SELECTOR" Button is now the "PLAY" Button and opens to the level selection screen of the most recently unlocked levels.
- "PLAY" Button changed to a "QUICK PLAY" and opens the current level.
- AIMING! - Modified the aiming tool a decent amount. Have played with the prediction line and have made it so that it should be more accurate than before. An issue was brought up that it did not always properly predict where the ball would actually go. This should happen less often now.
- ROTATION! - When the ball hits any of the pegs it now experiences some amount of spin, or direction change, so that rolling is possible.
- Ball Pot - The ball pot no longer glitches backwards when the ball bounces off of it.
KNOWN ISSUES
- This update will break the custom saved levels. The saving of the JSON file switched the object names into being numbers, and we must have increased the number of objects in the game, and GMS2 must have changed the JSON number interpretation of the different pegs. So some of the pegs switch to being different objects when the game tries to load previous custom levels. It is technically possible to fix this by changing the numbers in the JSON files, if you would like to please request help on doing that.
- The Vent hero is overpowered. Every time you press "v" that the special powers are activated then you switch the gravity of the game. This means all of the newest 7 levels can be technically beaten in 1 shot, if you are patient enough. We don't know what to do to balance this yet.
KNOWN ISSUE with a POTENTIAL SOLUTION
- Sometimes the ball would be stuck bouncing between two pegs and neither would break for a long time. The potential solution is that every 1/2 second or so the ball checks if it is close to the last position it was in, and if it is, then it makes it so the next peg it hits should pop. - Developer post
SAVING! And Custom Levels and such

Original post- Aiming
Aiming is now based on a math function that can update every frame instead of a pretend fire of a ball that takes a long time to determine whether or not the predicted shot should hit!- NEW HERO! (And levels)
The HAT! Chef Toque joins the Crew with her "mind control" powers! (It's more like telekinesis) Press Ctrl after hitting a blue power peg to speed up the ball pot even mid-game!
[It should be noted that Ctrl can be pressed at any time before a shot to speed up the ball pot and put it in a different position]
The HAT joins for the newest SEVEN levels that have been included in this update.- SAVING! (And auto-saving)
I had no saving in the game before. my b. It should be there now with this most recent update.- CUSTOM LEVELS!
There is now a level creator in game, so if you want to make your own levels you can!
Theoretically the levels could be shared with your friends, but I am not confident on that point yet, if it is possible I will create a "how-to".Graphics Changes
- Level 2 has been updated
Ball pot bounces between walls
Other cleaning up of some of the graphics- Added Shadows ( I intend to add shadows to everything that the ball can bounce off of.

This post is hopefully in conjunction with the update that I have made.
I don't know fully how to get steam to do updates yet, so please let me know if it worked! :)
