DEMO UPDATE: Meadow & QOL
If you've been reading these for a while, you might look at the title and think to yourself - wasn't it called like 4 times already that there wouldn't be any more Demo updates? Why is there another? Anyways:
This Demo update introduces the alt. Area 2, Meadow, into the Demo. Originally I thought the Demo already had enough, but I figured... why not. This way the demo at least has 4 stages of general variety instead of 3. And we all know video game bosses always take 4 hits, not 3, so that's a good number.
Alongside this, I've also polished up some rougher edges and added some additional QOL features to make learning the game a bit easier. This includes a "WRONG WAY" warning if you - get this - drive the wrong way, an arrow that points you back into the road in case you launch yourself outside the road and more! I don't believe REDLINE CROOKS is on the "Qualify of Life By Country" list yet, but I've been making an active effort to get it accepted because I believe by now we've reached a point where we are at least over Luxembourg.

A bunch of Quality of Life Changes!

Full Changelog
- Entering Zone 2 now has a chance to have you enter Meadow instead of Countryside
- Added a "WRONG WAY" warning in case you drive the wrong way for an extended period of time
- Added an arrow that points you back to the road in case you dig out too far
- Volume settings no longer wrap around (Sorry V-tuber that streamed the game and blasted her ears out by accident)
- Danger arrow setting is now disabled by default
- The first time you play MR. KILL now shows a prompt explaining how to use his special
- If you don't defeat Vance in Zone 2, but still make it to the end, the shop now goes back to the normal area theme instead of continuing to play the boss theme
- Added GMSched and set sleep margin to 1 (Thanks to the Yellowafterlife blog post that informed me of this quirk). Should fix some quirks relating to some systems and non-60Hz refresh rates.
- Increased outside-of-road decoration rate
- General optimization to save on CPU for better performance, especially on larger levels
- Deadlift now has 5 Stars in Boost Consumption
- Deadlift's special now has an active hitbox rather than only grabbing for 1 frame, massively reducing the accuracy required to use it effectively
- John Carma's special now sucks in closeby vehicles, reducing the amount of accuracy needed to use it effectively
- A variety of minor changes and bug fixes that were too unimportant for me to write down on the sheet of toilet paper that has the rest of the changes on it

REDLINE CROOKS is a unique, fast-paced combat-racer combining roguelite elements and breakneck speeds to make for a one-of-a-kind, high-octane experience. Charge through walls, cops and more using anything ranging from a tuned-up sports car to a forklift lacking certification. Why outrun the long arm of the law when you can slam it into a wall instead?
- Pick one out of 9 playable convicts, each with distinct playstyles and character-specific upgrades.
- Use the Boost to reach dangerously high speeds and blast through walls and enemies alike at the cost of your health.
- Slam, blow up, launch, ram or otherwise destroy anyone looking to get you back behind bars, and be rewarded with cash and health.
- Build an arsenal of powerful upgrades purchasable from the ever-trustworthy shopkeeper - there are over 100 items for you to mix and match, making every run unique.
- Perform well to rank up, ramping up both the difficulty and the rewards you get using a God Hand-inspired difficulty scaling system.
- Master the intricate mechanics and make it to the top of the online leaderboard, or just have a good time in this easy to play, hard to master experience.
- Test your skills by completing jobs, earning stamps which can be exchanged for customization options and more.
- Jam out to an awesome, original digital-fusion soundtrack by father p.
