Hi everyone! Another great patch coming your way!
PATCH NOTES:
- I haven't been happy with the number of people who've been able to make it to the bonus round. A great deal of the game's content is in the bonus round, but less than 1/4 of players are making it there. Therefore, I've made it a bit easier to get there. The bellows targets, which only used to activate "steam boost mode," which increased spinner steam output, now themselves provide steam power. This brings the total number of targets that increase steam power to 3. Hopefully this will make getting to the bonus round a bit easier.
- In that same vein, I've increased the number of balls on Easy mode (note: ONLY on easy mode) from 3 to 5. This will hopefully give players a bit longer to build up their steam power, and hopefully make it to the bonus stage.
- I forgot to change the label for the zoom level option in the last update. Things should be a bit clearer now.
- You can now adjust the music and sound effects volume from the menu! This was the 2nd most requested feature, so hopefully everyone will get off my back now! (Just kidding, you guys are great!)
- I've taken one more stab at fixing the fullscreen glitch. If anybody notices the game loading at an aspect ratio that doesn't match the monitor you're using, please let me know in the forums.
- I've tweaked the camera, so that it tries to track the bombs as well as the ball when bombs have been spawned. It still gives a fairly high weighting to the ball, but it doesn't ignore the other balls completely anymore.
- Due to difficultly communicating with Major Melon, I've awarded a prize to our runner up from the February contest. Major Melon will still get his prize (when he tells me what he wants). If you're reading this Major Melon, drop me a line! Leave me a message on the forum or something! Anyway, It's up to AceMatt whether or not he wants to share his super secret cheat code with everybody, I leave that to him.
As always, if you have any bug reports or suggests or whathaveyou, drop me a line on the forum, or leave a comment, or send a carrier pidgeon.
Features that are still in the works:
- Keyboard remapping (harder than it sounds, not that I'm complaining)
- Language support for Simplified Chinese.
