Hello guys! How are you doing?
Yes, you read it right. You can now play with a new character on Pigeons Attack! Here is a summary of new stuff added on update 0.8:
- New playable character: Ron, The Mage;
- Giant Pigeon has a new behavior;
- You can now add any weapon/item (according to character) in any inventory slot;
- Minor speed decrease on tiny pink pigeon;
- Bug fixes and improvements.
Now, let’s get to the details.
Ron, The Mage
Ron uses magic staffs as weapon (don’t you say). You can find different staffs on different spots of the map, each one with a specific power. They all work in a similar way: press the attack button once to shoot and hold it for a while (until you hear a sound or see your staff glowing) to shoot its special power, as you can see on the gifs. But be careful, all your shots consume mana (blue bar below health). The amount of mana consumed depends on which staff you are using and if it is a normal or a special shot. You can recover your mana by defeating enemies, picking ammo boxes, buying mana potions or just waiting, as it recovers a bit every second.
Manage your mana so you can use this awesome and powerful ultimate when your bar is full:
Giant Pigeon’s new behavior
Giant Pigeons will now try to block your path (saying “excuse me” to them will not work, we tried) by standing still on the closest open path. They only will chase you when there is no free spot available or when they are the only enemies left on the current round.
Inventory slot
On previous versions, the third slot of your inventory was only used by certain weapons, like health potion, bombs etc. Now, you can place any weapon on any slot, as long as your character is allowed to use it. So, this means you can hold three machine guns or three health potions. No idea on how you would attack with the last combination, but it is up to you what combination of weapons and items you want to use.
Hope you enjoy playing with Ron! Please, feel free to send us feedback about the new character, any other suggestion or bug.
