Finished at last!

What a night! Talk about drama... One thing I fully overlooked was the fact that my final flash would have a bigger background than the dummy traffic light background I used to determine the length of time it took to scroll right the way through. Because of this, when piecing together my final two backgrounds they completely overlapped with one another. Now I figured this would be a simple fix of changing a few variables but no matter what I tried nothing seemed to set it quite right. At one point where I thought I had succeeded, if you waited it would eventually come to a point where one background would end and then you would fly through white space for around 8 seconds and then background two would appear. I never managed to succeed in getting it quite right but I got it to a point that I was actually very happy with and in some ways I think it turned out better than I had planned. It has been set to scroll through half of the original size of each of the two backgrounds. What is cool about this though is that coming to the end of the level there is an opaque overlap between the two creating a very cool effect, it's kind of like a storm being hit and this works well at this point to because at the end of the level is the area where the sky gets darker after you pass through the big wall of clouds. To some up though, I have had a great time working on this project and am quite pleased with where I ended up. Whilst completely different to my original idea I think it has quite the potential to progress with it further in my own time, adding the aliens attacking Sky City and of course giving Spark the shooting ability to make the shooter it has designed to be.
