Greetings dear reader and Happy New Year!
It's been a minute. I had some lovely time off but don't worry - I haven't been idle. Work has been progressing on the weapons update!
Turns out adding new weapons can break a LOT in the game, but I'm at a place where I'm happy with two new additions, so here they are.
They've been added in beta for now, so switch to the NEW beta branch (no password required any more!) to give them a go. Not sure what happened to the old beta branch but it won't update now...
The new letters are:
First Class Post - this sniper type letter hovers over your head for a second before firing off at super speed towards an enemy. It's high damage and fires faster as it upgrades.
Snail Mail - a very slow, low-medium damage letter that can pierce enemies. It fires off all the time (not just when you're near enemies) and moves in a random direction but, to balance it, it fires two projectiles from the start.
As ever there will be bugs so let me know if you find one or if the progression is off on these new weapons.
I'm aiming to add 3 more weapons into the mix before fully releasing the 'more weapons' update, I will keep you updated as I go!
Finally, you'll notice the game is on sale. Thanks to everyone that's picked it up so far.
