Gatlin' - The Annual Big Comprehensive Holiday Update #1 (1.0.2)
Introducing the first-ever "The Annual Big Comprehensive Holiday Update." We're starting off relatively small this year, but we hope to make this a big thing for Gatlin' in the future once/if we pick up more of a community.
Highlights:
- OST is finally here! Thank DJIVVI (aka Cadence Hira) for joining Gatlin' as the composer! Some levels still have placeholder music, but over time we plan on covering all the bases!
- New world! Introducing "Art's Rejects." These levels are various polished concepts that were taken out of story mode for being on the crueler side.
- New boss! Meet "Credits." Credits is a physics-based boss battle that ideally makes giving proper credits not annoying! Well, not annoying in the traditional sense.
- New boss! Meet "Damn." Damn is a unique boss fight. It resides at the end of Art's Rejects. We'll leave it at that.
- The Steam assets for Gatlin' have been overhauled to seem slightly less crummy!
Eight new achievements!
- Accredited Actor
- Addendum
- Barren Field

- Midknight Crisis
- Right to Privacy
