A special warp attack, flashy stuff with hero piece capture and more move Gigachess forward a version ! :)
GIGACHESS V1.02 CHANGELOG
- At the start of every 5th wave in Endless mode, any Pawns who've moved onto the bottom two rows of the board get teleported away to the top two rows
- Hero pieces being captured now cause the water surrounding the board to flash brightly of that hero piece's colour to make it clearer that a piece has been lost
- Viper Pawn spawn rates in Endless mode have been tweaked to allow the possibility of Viper Pawns appearing on Novice and Medium difficulties in limited numbers
- A special board transition effect now plays when a game is restarted or undo is used
- Blockades now show visible cracks as their stock is depleted
- The 'Last Formation' button in Endless mode now loads up the last difficulty setting played
- Blockades and Trapmines now feature a spawn animation when placed on the board
- Hints added to all of the Tutorial stages, unlocked just like in Puzzle Attack mode after 3 successive defeats in a stage
- The 'Undo' button in Endless mode now enables when a power-up is purchased in a turn, even if no hero pieces have been moved
- Layering bugs where hint overlays would appear on top of the Victory and Defeat shields fixed
- The keyboard shortcut for changing window size has been removed due to unresolvable bugs that could glitch out display settings when the dropdown menu was next accessed
- Annoying audio clipping pops when using click-and-drag movement fixed
- Blockade rubble now gets cleared from the board between Puzzle Attack stages
- A bug that could prevent Trapmines from being placed in certain situations of using Undo fixed
- A bug where spamming the 'Last Formation' button could get hero pieces stuck in their spawn animation fixed
- A bug allowing Rooks and Bishops to be resurrected inside Blockades and on top of Trapmines fixed
Added later via quiet patch:
- Viper Pawns can now only ever downgrade to regular Pawns on the bottom two rows of the board, previously they would inherit downgrades from any object blocking their advance on the 2nd row
The 5-wave Pawnwarp changes up the flow of Endless mode in kind of a cool way, do share your thoughts if you feel one way or the other about it :)
