As Sure Footing comes to Xbox, we have released a new v1.1 update to Steam that includes all of the work we've done on improving the game in preparation for the Xbox release. This is a combination of new content, bug fixes, reworked elements, and more. Here are some of the highlights:
- Performance Improvements: We've reworked a big chunk of the level generation engine to run more smoothly. In addition, a lot of other gremlins were removed from the codebase such that we can now maintain much higher frame rates on beefier machines. Plus a lot of other niggling little bugs we found during the refactor process.
- Rebalanced Mechanics: The core jump and movement mechanics have received a revamp so that players can move around more freely and better control their jumps. This also includes some rebalancing of power-ups and new dynamics to exploit.
- New Gameplay Modes: Two new single-player modes - Tunnel Turmoil and Ramrafstars Revenge - add a new layer of challenge and online leaderboards too!
- Economy Tweaks: We've tweaked the in-game shop so that costumes, power-ups, and buffs are more easily attainable. You get more chances to collect MIPs during a run and have now included the ability to hack and override in-game challenges via the Shop menu if you want to access content earlier.
