tl;dr; New Minion Ability, New Minion Focused Character, Touch Support Hi All, This patch has both the 0.9.1 changes which were already live on the beta patch as well as some changes I made for 0.9.2. This will be the final patch for the minions (for now). I'm pretty happy with the 4 major content pieces added being the Spitball Minion, Snowman Minion, Alien Portal Minion, and the Little Toy Robot to act as the minion based character. I have a few more ideas like a dummy minion to taunt enemies or some sort of paper airplane minion that would follow the player around. Both of those are TBD and may very well not happen at all. My next major goal is to work on way to make Act 2 feel unique, but more to come on that shortly. You can message me with ideas or bugs on the Official Discord or via the Steam discussion boards and I will likely implement your idea! Thank you to all of you who have given me feedback and helped test new features. I'm getting very excited to be get closer and closer to the full 1.0 release. Thanks for playing my little game. :) Much love, Aarimous
0.9.2 Patch Notes #2
- New Character: Little Toy Robot : it's a cute little robot that has a unique movement patter flipping from king movement to a large burst of forward movement. It has some nice added base stats for minions, but at the cost of very low melee attack.
- Reorganized the character unlock so the less fun characts are unlocked later. This should also reflect a better pacing for new movement patterns and game mechanics.
- Adjusted relic unlocks to be paired up with specific character unlocks. This way each level-up should have more a theme to it. I will likely do another pass at this in coming patches.
0.9.1 Patch Notes #1
- New Minion Ability: Alien Minion : Spawn an alien minion in an adjacent tile. During the movement phase the alien will create a portal making the tile a selectable movement tile. Selecting the portal will teleport the player to the portal. The player deals melee damage to enemies it collides with. When the player reaches the portal it will expand and deal damage to enemies in adjacent tiles.
- Adjusted how the input is handled for mouse and touch screen. For mouse nothing will practically change, but for touch screen it will now function as expected. When using a touch screen the tile selection icon will sometime remain on the tile since touching the screen moves where the game thinks the mouse cursor is, I couldn't easily fix this so for now it's just part of the game.
