Hey Fellas
Big update that adds in a whole new weapon type that should change how you think about making builds. There has been quality of life improvements as suggested by players and the intro Hospital has seen a level design revamp after some careful study.
- Introduced the “Shield” weapon type. Shields block damage and reduce the heat of the other weapon, providing an aggressive-defense playstyle
- Added 5 new shields and 1 variant
- Changed “Base Damage” to “Base Power” to fit with shields
- Changed how the position of weapons on the player’s back are calculated
- Fixed the weapon positions on the Cosmetic Dresser to match the player
- Can’t swap weapons in menus to prevent confusion
- Touched up on my french and fixed the arena starting countdown
- Slightly altered Fizzing Foundry Pt 1 level design
- Added a new Sandpit Match post-Fizzing Foundry
- Fix collectables appearing after in Nightmare stages
- Added a new conversation with Mr. Basanta post-Fizzing Foundry
- Fixed the Cyan Hive spinning forever in a corner
- Change the auto screen save opening to be in the corner to be more accurate
- Allow menus to remember where they previously were when navigating
- Reworked the intro level design to properly teach the player about high jumps and dash jumping after play feedback
- You can now shoot the Pigeons, heavily requested feature
- Somewhat fixed the camera getting funky when the players gets off screen
- Streamlined some key binding issues and updated the menu slightly
- Changed how save files store sprites for the files screen, should prevent strange corruptions
