Patch 0.43.71

New Event

This updated includes a new event for testing which is not a boss fight, but instead a multi-tasking exercise. The event rate has been set at every 10 gates, and the worm will still always come first.

The next event will be another boss battle, but I wanted to get one of the non-boss events in the game to gauge player response. It turns out that non-boss events are much harder to make than boss fights, and we went through about 5 or 6 completely different designs that were shelved before we got one that seemed interesting and intuitive enough.

Other Changes and Additions

  • Added new tutorial lines for Armory
  • Added logging for failed event start (in multiplayer)

Next update will include some changes to event tile attack visibility (more visible trails and outlines for thrown objects) as well as a new system for sequencing the event tiles to prevent repeats but allow varied placement.
