The Update v0.31 of ZONERS is now available and finally makes Rhapsody a fun and engaging character to play as with a rebalanced, patched and aesthetically cool new self. The deeper we get into the roster it seems the more they are benefitting from all this animation and balance work!
There's also a bunch of other smaller fixes, mostly regarding the King boss battle in the cup as well as a few other bits and pieces. Read below for the full patch notes. What's Next The plan is to get Crabhammer's and Princess' melee animations done pronto so that one of my other artists (Kevin Butler) who did the beautiful end card art work, has all the necessary references to make some new art that'll be used for the titlescreen and a few other small places. Adding some juice! I'll then jump straight onto finishing the rest of Crabhammer's animations and moveset tweaks. Expect to see some changes to the core moveset here, particularly the Super which I remain unhappy with as a move. I'm really excited to show you all the fun things he'll do when animated. Slowly but surely the whole cast is being brought to life :D The BG and FX artist (Gabriel Lima) has been inundated with other work due his work on ZONERS, so there's a bit of a delay on the Credit's assets being updated and more FX work being done, but they guy works so hard all the time, you gotta give him his due! It'll be worth waiting for, I promise! v0.31 PATCH NOTES ADDITIONS
