UPDATE #8: TUTORIAL AND THE BEGINNING OF A STORY

Hello everybody,

Today we have uploaded the new update to Heart&Slash. As with the boss update, this is a significant one BUT for those of you who are already mastering the game, it might not be that relevant, since it involves mostly improvements to our first time user experience.

That is, we have integrated a tutorial, and have laid the foundations of our Quest and Story systems.

Oh, we have also integrated a secret, extra character that serves as super-hard mode... But you will need to discover how to unlock it.

CHANGELOG:

  • Tweaked the bosses. Should play better, be harder. Still needs some work done.
  • Enemies now use alternative attacks more often. It should feel different to fight against many of them.
  • Heart now has a tigher evasion window. Still easy to evade, but slightly harder to time.
  • Tutorial, including a small story that explains Heart's origins.
  • Beggining of the Quest system.
  • Small improvements to Level 2 flow. Still lots of work to be done here.
  • Bugfixing.

WHAT'S COMING NEXT

The next steps are to finish the level 2 bosses and to start integrating level 3. We are going to work on parallel for these, and we hope to have both in by the end of the month.

And of course, to bugfix as much as we can!

Please let us know any comments and thoughts you might have about this update!
