Hi everyone!
I'm pleased to share a fun little update for Cell Sword. As well as a few fixes I have added a new level, called "At The Movies". It's available for free as a bonus mission inside the game.
It's quite different to the other missions in Cell Sword. In "At The Movies" you have to guard four MediWeapon MouthTurret™ installations that a customer has had installed in their mouth to protect them against Rust infection. MouthTurret™ installations are the latest micro hardware products from MediWeapon. They automatically lock on to Rust and blast them to pieces. Yes some customers have been reporting scorch marks on their cheeks but that's just the cost of good health, right?
Something I've tried hard to do with Cell Sword is make each mission special in its own way and genuinely explore the setting inside the human body and how that affects level design. This is my most "mushy" level yet. I really think it's gross, which has been my dream for this game since day 1.
Additionally, there are a few nifty fixes to Cell Sword this release:
fix: gamepad firing now works
fix: projectile SFX now obey SFX volume settings
fix: scythe engine now obeys SFX volume settings
fix: Rust thinking noises now obey SFX volume settings
As always, your purchase and review and sharing the game with your friends goes a long way for small devs like me... further than think! I'd love to do more missions (especially some more maze-type ones) and even Cell Sword 2 one day but I can only go where people want me to go! So suggestions always welcome in the forum. Have a good Christmas and see you in 2026.
Regards,
Luke
