What's New for Bean Beasts?
Tiny Teams
I'm very excited to share that Bean Beasts will be included in this year's Tiny Teams festival - an event celebrating small development teams.
New Music
New Music for world 2, 3 and 4 (remixes for the 2nd half of each world).
+All and +3 Beans Buttons
Added "+3 Beans" and "+All Beans" buttons to the upgrade panel.
Enemy Warning Colour Changes
Entrance smoke and path indicators now flash red when an offensive enemy will appear.
What's Left?
Finalising and testing translations.
A couple of music tracks need finishing.
Final playtesting.
Game Updates
Bean Beasts now blink on the loading screen.
Some enemies in world 4 are slightly more valuable.
Enemy value reduction for Beast Mode is -10% instead of -20% for World 4 only.
2-9 Targets for challenges reduced to 30 (flipper) and 100 (burn) from 50/150.
4-2 Challenge amended to "hit enemies will all elements/status" rather than a single enemy.
Added more players to the Play Testers credits.
Swapped levels 1-6 and 1-7 so you unlock flipper before the map which requires flippers (1-8).
