The update is now live for both the full game and the 1 level demo. Here is what has changed:
- Modified backgrounds to take less processing power at the cost of more RAM. *
- Modified menus so all controllers work rather than just the first controller.
* For slower CPUs this will improve performance when a screen is full of bullets. My slower 2.1 gHz PC (edit 2.4 gHz) would go from 60 fps to 30 when the screen had 200+ bullets during boss battles and specific levels. Now it slowly drops down to 50 fps.
* The new background system should generate a wider variety of things. So the few levels that use the same background elements can feel a bit different than they used to. Some backgrounds are even randomly tilted to different angles.
