Greetings Citizens!
The demo for Crush The Rebellion! has just received a much needed update, containing some of the features and improvements mentioned in the development update a few weeks ago. The update also comes with some new features and a number of smaller bugfixes and improvements.
The most noteworthy of these other features is the achievement progress tracking. While achievements are not a feature of the demo, their progress will now be (silently) tracked, which will allow them to be unlocked upon purchasing the full game (so long as the requirements were met while playing the demo).
Full release notes for demo v0.11.0:
Added new pickups and bonuses
Bullet Time - when activated, time is slowed for a short while, allowing the player to more easily dodge incoming projectiles
Call Imperial Squadron - when activated, a squadron from the Imperial fleet is called to aid the player for a time
Added new particles for when weapon projectiles hit an object
Added achievement progress tracking
Fixed an old bug where the player would reappear in the menu when quitting after losing a life
Updated the engine to Godot 4.6.2, bringing additional bugfixes and stability improvements
Removed references to superweapons from the upgrades and help menus
