Hey everyone!
Indie Game Battle v1.02 is out! Not much new content, but sure is a lot of additions anyways. And a lot of fixes and improvements, too. Changelog below!
**Additions**
-8-bit costume for The Kid! Allows you to pretty much play as his original I Wanna Be The Guy look.
-Added bloom, blur, and sun shafts to nearly all stages. These effects are also balanced to fit the stage and it's environment well. Generally, it should make the game look a lot prettier.
-Aria now appears in the window on the Matt's Room stage randomly. She won't appear if someone plays as Aria, and her animation is a bit different if Matt is being played as or not.
-New render and icon for Artist.
-Added more hurtboxes for The Kid.
-Added a new song to the Water Temple stage.
**Changes**
-Brand new hit effects. New effects are also less costly for the system, which may help the game run better.
-Tweaked the waterfall on Verdant Valley a bit.
-Shields now come out a bit faster than before, and are more responsive to button inputs.
-Landing lag greatly reduced in general. L-caneling is now less about avoiding huge amounts of landing lag and more about wavedashing and doing certain other types of tech.
-Random button now also randomizes colors and costumes!
**Fixes**
-Fixed bug where the achievement "New Challenger" wouldn't unlock.
-Fixed error where the wrong music could play on the Water Temple stage.
-Fixed a bug where you could still stand on the moving platform when it's lowered on the Central Town stage.
-Fixed some background stuff on Verdant Valley.
-Fixed upper blast zone on Matt's Room. It's now higher up and always outside the camera view.
-Fixed bug with Artist's spray can.
-Fixed some audio issues on the Demon Fields stage.
-Fixed a modeling error with Bingo.
**Balancing**
*Buffs*
-Bingo's down air, down smash, and down tilt are all a bit faster than before.

*Nerfs*
