ljuin: Yes, actually - Those are supposed to be the traditional metal balls - just motion blurred. Since they'll be moving fairly fast, they'd definately be stretched out quite a bit. The other idea is to give it a better feeling of speed.
We're still going to test it so it looks similar enough to the originals so it doesn't throw people off. One of the main things that will most likely change is the width of the projectile - it should be close to the size of a laser, at the very most. Right now it's much smaller. The other thing that will probably change is the brightness. Right now they're a bit too..glowy. They should look like glinting metal capsules (Sphere + motionbluring). I still have to go back and fix that one.
