Progress!

New name! I've decided "SkyGuard" was too close to "SkyRoads", especially since this is also a DOS game targeting the same-ish era. I also just like Equinox better.
So far, the onscreen object system has been entirely overhauled and major refactoring has been done to the overall game loops.
These changes came from discoveries made while working on another game with the same basic codebase, revealing that I was simply not using the DIV Mode 7 properly.
There's also new 3D rendered cockpit graphics, modeled on an emulated K6-2 with an old copy of trueSpace like I originally learned 3D modeling on back in the 90s.
Also, there's 3D rendered asteroids to shoot! Still working on making impact effect animations display properly.
All in all, many steps have been taken forward, but there are still many left to go!
