Hey guys, since the release of the first demo version (0.1.0) and a few youtube video gameplays of Side Effect I decided to change / fix some features which might have been a bit annoying for you players as well as me once I realized them.
Here is the list of changes / fixes in 0.1.2:
- Tobi should no longer miss the trash throw at recycler when a tree is in the way. He will always find a spot from where he has a clear view of the recycler before throwing.
- Decreased threshold of how much garbage has to be collected before Tobi shows player the partial story animation to prevent unnecessarily long and repetitive demo gameplay.
- Enabled LMB & RMB garbage pick up controls right after Tobi introduces it instead of player having to wait the entire monologue for this ability to unlock
- Changed blue butterfly so that now it appears right when player starts in the cave after the storm
- Updated butterfly's speed to more match the player's speed
- Tobi will no longer accidentally find and pick up golden garbage
- Tobi's monologues have been sped up a tiny bit
- Simplified Tobi's monologue when he explains garbage collecting mechanics
- Removed feature where player could be killed by falling
- Fixed Tobi's position so that he will be visible after he lands from the cliff jump at the end
- Fixed butterfly's idle animation which no longer glitches out randomly
- Added "Report an issue" button to main menu which players can use to report any problem related to the game
- Added demo version label to the main menu
That's all for this update, I hope you will give it a try and let me know how you like these new changes.
Your dev
JL
