Walking Sprite Animations
This last patch was a huge art update. Almost all characters received a high fps walking animation cycle. Previously, characters only had a running cycle and idle. The walk cycles took up most of the hours contributed to the game since the last patch.
Character Walking Sprites Updated
- Koko
- Poki
- Keeria
- Lono
- Red
- Wicks
- Bedge
- Muffins
Shogun and Sero's walking sprites have not been updated with a walk cycle.
UI / UX
- Map view now blurs when using the top menu
- Autosaved feature removed
The autosave feature was great in theory. It was difficult to implement as a feature without adding optimization issues to the game. Familia may again have an autosave feature in the future, but it will take time to find and create the best solution.
Cutscene / Dialogue
- The first beach cutscene cleaned up
- Shifu walks away after the Scoutmaster battle scene
- Henry's text bubble wasn't showing at Kalbi home
- Additional Map and Stat Screen upon completion of a reach granting other loot drops
Maps
- Character shadows have been upgraded
- The screen no longer flashes when poisoned or taking floor damage; it now uses pixelation
- Update map version of Sero’s Hut and Outside Sero’s Hut
- The first floor of Kalbi house updated
- Many of the zoomed-in map areas now no longer allow running
