We updated the game! You won't believe the 4th change we did! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ


FIXING AND OPTIMIZING!

Hey everyone! As you all must've noticed, we've been VERY BUSY showing up in the Future of Play Showcase, OTK Games Expo and the PC Gaming Show! This means, a TON of new players, so we had to stop and work on dusting up some cobwebs and making the game easier to run on slower machines. So this update focus on this! But rest assured! We're working on some cooool new features!

Features

New Air Gear UI!

We brushed up the UI for the Air Gear, now it has its proper place and has a charger count as well as a very nice VFX to indicate when it's ready to use!

Map Changes!

We changed a bit of the map (near the mountains) to make the flow more smooth and reduce the amount of invisible walls.

Upgrade Toast!

When you get a new upgrade you'll get a notification at the bottom of the HUD showing which upgrade you got. You know... in case you forgot.

Optimizations!

A ton of optimizations were made, it mostly impact lower-end machines

SFX!

We added some new SFX to the game! Enjoy ๐Ÿ˜€

Fixes and Improvements

  • Fixed some issues with movement where the player wouldn't be able to climb and walk through certain small objects.
  • Currencies UI won't appear at the start
  • Added animation when you pick up Pebbles and Cores
  • Added Pebble icon to Item Shop upgrades tooltip
  • There were some Mementos Upgrades that weren't working properly, fixed them!
    • Cooldown Reduction, Damage Reduction, Move Speed, Max Health Increase
  • Fixed controller support behaving strangely
  • Improved visuals of all explosion VFX, should be lighter on the GPU and easier to see when there's too many of them
  • Added a small delay to the Air Gear where you cannot activate it sequentially (some people were activating it two times by accident a lot!)

Director's Commentary

We're so happy by the reception the game has been receiving online, thank you all for the support!

So, this update right now was a bit on the smaller size, but rest assured we've been working super hard on MAJOR features. As you saw on the new trailer there are multiple new Characters, Boss fights and even some new secret gameplay mechanics coming to the game!
