Hey there Banas! We're making one update to get ready for the HUGE amount of content coming up soon, no spoilers today ;)
There's quite a bit to unpack so let's just get right down to the list of major features:
Opening Cutscene
You'll have to see for yourself, but upon starting a fresh save file, Apple will give you a friendly introduction and tell you the story of how the evil Shadow Bana came to power in the first place. This is part of our attempt to orient Bana Simulator more towards it's rich storyline and share some of the deep lore beneath the Game's surface.
General Features
- Complete overhaul of the Bana Rang
- Graphical overhaul of the Bana Blade
- Partial gameplay overhaul of the Bana Bow
- Added Poison damage
- Added Fire Damage
- Remade low-health indicators
- Significantly nerfed potassium buffer
- Rewrote some tutorial levels
- Idiot-proofed minigames
- Added (Are you ready for this) FLOORS!!
New Weapons
These weapons will be fully implemented in the very-near future with the next chapters of the Bana's story. For now you can only access them in endless mode.
Sunpower
A medium-damage beam weapon that can hit many targets or plant a weaker flower as a sentry turret.
Haunted Hammer
A high-damage melee weapon that can deal very high damage and gains power as it absorbs enemy's souls. Has a secondary drop-swing attack. This will eventually be a reward for a Halloween themed "Pumpkin Gourdian" boss.
Toxic Tentacle
A new flail-type weapon that deals heavy poison damage.
Petal-rang
A type of aquatic flower found in high cliffs that has sharp petals, usable as a high-power weapon.
Bramble Bow
Launch brambles that trail your arrow or plant giant poisonous bushes.
Slingshot
I really hope you know what one of these is...
Peblet Golems
Little golems that you can throw at your enemies. Extremely cute, but even more deadly.
Setting the Stage
It's no secret that we have a big update coming soon, as much as we'd like to share every detail of it now, some of the features aren't ready. There are dozens of hidden enemies, weapons, and levels included in the files of this update that won't be visible in any way just yet, but be patient. The wait won't be long...
All I will share is that the next update will include multiplayer networking, so get the word about Bana Simulator to your friends.
