Hello! How's everyone? Here's a regular sized update this week. I'm gonna hopefully stick with a bi-weekly or weekly update schedule as I'm hoping to push a lot of polish updates. So here's the first round of polish!
Shmup Mode Changes
I also separated shorter rounds from the shmup mode. Shorter rounds will now be an unlockable game mode. As always though, you can access it right away by going into the accessibility options. And now, if shorter rounds is turned off there will be a small shmup wave of enemies between levels where you can gain some goodies by playing it well! Some of you might recognize the enemies from another game of mine. :)
A note about performance:
I made some changes that should help performance. Specifically for people who use monitors with refresh rates higher then 60hz. But you'll have to let me know. Did performance get better? And more importantly, did it get worse? ːtrazzː
That's all for this update! Full change list below. Thanks for playing and for the super nice reviews you all left the last few weeks. They were sooo nice. Gave me a nice boost to keep working on this monster :D Anyways, thank you. Until next time!
Peace!
