Hi Everyone! We come to you with great news. We've been working on a new update for the demo version for a while now. Now that the moment has arrived, here are the patch notes!

What's New

• Creative Mode: Now you don't only have to play on the levels we made. With this mode you can create your own levels and even share them with your friendsthroughthe workshop.
• Level 3: The story mode picks up where it left off... For the demo version, we added all the levels in Kevin's room to the game. You can fight against different enemies in the table, bed and carpet sections.
• New Enemy Bases: There are different enemy bases that vary according to the different levels. You can also use them in creative mode.
• New Enemies: Meet two new enemies we added for Level 3.

Changes

• Balance changes: We've tried to balance the levels for the demo as much as we can. Of course, there are some balance issues in the current version as well. We plan to fix them as soon as possible.
• Level 1 Enemies Reworked: Instead of making Level 1 purely tutorial, we've transformed it into a normal game format after a few waves.
• Level 2 Redesigned: Due to our desire for a more controlled difficulty increase, we've redesigned Level 2.
• Soldiers Getting Stuck Issue: Soldiers couldn't hit enemies again after taking damage due to the damage-receiving animation until they died. Now, soldiers do not enter the damage-receiving animation except for heavy-hitting large enemies.
• Mortar Not Firing Issue: After the cannon stayed out of range after firing at enemies, it used to go into a zero-waiting time. This issue has been fixed.
• Many minor bugs in the game have been fixed.

You can try the new version by downloading the demo right now! Don't forget to report any bugs and suggestions you encounter in the game on our Discord server. We continue to improve the game at full speed. Haveagoodgame!
