I patched 1 Screen Platformer. Thank you so much to everyone who has emailed me a support note or has left a comment in our Discord. I take your feedback VERY seriously. Here is what has changed:
- Fixed the Let's Play Badly(TM) shortcut. Like the Kessel run this was a shortcut that was a little... lets say illegal. Double-jump capable characters could use it to bypass the entire game. I needed to brick up that wall. Let me tell you nothing is getting through there now. If you want to see the discovery of it check out this excellent video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqYMjh3quiY&feature=youtu.be
- Fixed the glitch just above the flame plates where you couldn’t fall back down through the opening. You would just float there like "What now?"
- Made the sound of the intro drums quieter. True story that sound actually scared my wife one time when I forgot to mute my laptop and she was watching TV. Don’t know why it took so long to quiet it. I guess I felt like I had to go big or go home. I went big and I am sorry. I will add volume control to the whole game soon but that takes more time so I will update that in a future patch.
- Vez Specific: The stars from the little nav orbs were updated so they weigh as much as 100 fairy kisses, 22 dancing angels, and have the heaviness of a maiden's heart on a fresh summer morning... which means they weigh nothing so they do not trigger the trampolines.
- Vez Specific: His hitbox is now the exact same as Nadia’s. I gave him the wrong hit box in the launch of the game. This will make it MUCH MUCH easier to play as him. If you gave up on him try it again, you would be amazed at what 2 fewer pixels can do.
- I added hit box visualizations to the spinning orbs so you can practice your circle jumping. Just press "T" to see them.
- I changed the sound of laser blasters. On some machines the sound would produce a high-pitched whine that someone described as a mosquito. So I tried a new sound effect.
- That is all I have for this update. There are two bigger game crashing bugs when you beat the game as Vez or Subject x95c. I am working on it! I just wanted to make these changes first because I know they cause a lot of pain for people day to day.
