Note from Aarimous


This patch was aimed and adding some content and polish for the upcoming steam next fest. I am happy where the demo is currently and will be turning my focus onto Act 2 and 3 in perpetration for the early access release in November. As always please reach out with any bugs or feedback.
Cheers,

Detailed Notes


  • Bullseye Ability
    • Added a new ability that is tied to the players movement instead of a cooldown
    • Create a small target around you dealing damage to any enemies within its area. The target is created whenever you moves tiles and is slightly larger the further you move.
  • Music
    • I've removed the two current songs and replaced with 3 that sound wayy better IMO
  • Bug, Balance, and Misc
    • Balanced the abilities and relics again. This will be continual and not really worth noting the specific values.
    • Added the tutorial screen with images
    • Removed screen aberration as it wasn't adding the effect I wanted to
    • Adjusted the screen shake to use a different type of shake
    • Added new splash screen and warning
    • Updated text labels for character info
    • Tuned enemy health numbers as they felt too squishy
    • Added attack sounds for player melee
    • Added screen shake for player melee
    • Added relic rarity, this will allow me to create powerful relics but put them behind rarity so they don't appear every run
    • Added more relics
    • Bugs fixes and other stuff that I can't remember
