Happy Halloween!
Something we've been asked non-stop since the Early Access launch is if we could implement more tricks. Well, today is the day! We've worked on the animation system so that it can now handle tricks like No Handers, Supermans, Can Can, and others. While we were working on the animation system we updated bails and the character collision at the same time. Falling off your bike has never looked better.
For Xbox One players this update also includes the previous Steam update. (Replay system, Volcano Bonus level, and a new batch of unlockable items)
Changes:
- Tricks: - Holding Left Shoulder Button (or C on keyboard) and point the Right Stick (Arrow keys on keyboard) to one of the 8 directions will trigger one of the new tricks. Tricks only work while in-air.
- New Bonus level: - We've added a 5th bonus level. Each of the environments now has their own bonus level. It's the perfect place to play around with the new trick system, go find it!
- New unlocks: - Added several new items of all rarities to unlock. This includes some special Halloween items.
- Misc: -Character now has collision. Try not to bump your head on the Firewatched jump. -Bail system improved. -Advanced replay options (Steam only). Hit Start/Escape during a replay and enable the advanced settings from there. This enables keyframe and camera path controls. -Keybindings menu updated. -Several sound effects updated/added. -Shuffle music option. Currently the game has different music for each environment. Enabling the shuffle option in the audio settings mixes everything up. -Build crew persons added to the build crew selection/game over/loading screens. -Sponsor office leave team button moved so it isn't pressed accidentally as easy. -Bugfix (Xbox): Flow and Best Time leaderboards should work again. -Bugfix (Xbox): Friends/Global distinction on leaderboards fixed. -Bugfix (Xbox): Mph/Kmh distinction now added to the bonus objectives. -Bugfix (Xbox): On-screen keyboard doesn't cut off popups anymore.
