Upcoming PISTOLA 1.3.0

I always talk about PISTOLA as a game we're ashamed of. We thrive to make games we'd like to play regardless of playtime and the niche it fills, so why weren't we treating this one as such? After a really honest, well made and insightful review, I cloned the PISTOLA repo and started doing some changes. The performance issue specifically, are a well-known one and multiple people have reported. I had no idea what was done there but I didn't expected it was that bad (my fault, though!) So, the first step was reworking the enemy code. If an image worths a thousand words, a video worths even more. Here's a before/after with the same amount of enemies spawned (note that as of now, the game gets slower even with games outside the viewport) [previewyoutube=NK6KenPbVqI;full][/previewyoutube]

Note that this is not released yet!

The goal is to make a update with new content, and I also need to further investigate if player powerups are another source of performance problems so I can handle it as well. I already have a nice backlog of possible features for this update, such as:

• Weekly leaderboard
• New characters with exclusive mechanics
• New powerups
• New languages
• A... companion?!

And that's the part where YOU come in!

Siege 'n Sow

I'd like to also point out that Siege 'n Sow, our newest game in development, has a steam page so you can add it to your wishlist if you want, it helps us a lot! But notice that since this is our main priority, PISTOLA 1.3.0 may not be released quick. But it will come! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2773700/Siege_n_Sow/
