Patch 1.01 - The Frustration FixDeath by Game Show was built to be about quick fire decision making. Yet you guys made us aware that it was too punishing. We love feedback and we’ll always try to listen to it. So with patch 1.01 we have tried to address as much as possible.
Patch Notes 1.01:
- Added a store function within the studio allowing the player to buy more consumable items.
- The buzzer charge and spins accumulated from collecting coins is persistent.
- Consumable droids and buildings with 81% HP or more can be packed away into inventory for future use.
- Buildings can be moved with 81% HP or more.
- The player's score is no longer reset on death.
- The studio spin bonus has been made more obvious.
- The tooltip now shows in 0.5s.
- Added a dynamic UI for droid selection. This highlights what number spawns droids and will adapt to changed numeric key bindings.
- Ensure droids and building dialogue bubble share the same cooldown to streamline screen clutter.
- Addressed a tooltip issue on the studio's left screen.
- Added first pass of backstory and context to game text.
- Updated challenges 2 to 9-7 to make it less hectic and more timely to experiment.
- All challenges from 10-1 have been modified to reflect changes in the earlier portion of the game.
- Removed several voice effects that didn’t connect with on-screen actions accurately.
- Reduced bonus scores given by completing Gold, Silver and Bronze milestones.
- Fixed the bug which stopped enemy buildings without power from highlighting red.
- Fixed a sprite issue in the Challenge Editor.
- The method to trigger tooltips with a controller has been reworked.
- Rank II Buildings now unlock at challenge 11-2 instead of 13-2.
- The Rust in Peace building now strikes based on target, rather than target's path.
- Coins sink slower than previously.
- Removed high scores on custom challenges due to cheat detection issues.
- Fixed a Z Depth issue on some building dialogue bubbles.
- Fixed an issue where information popups wouldn’t appear in Challenge Editor.
- If a player dies they return to a retry screen instead of back to the studio making it quicker back into the game.
- The droid iTCe no longer deals splash damage as there was a problem with it’s hit box.
- The droid iTCe now only hits backline buildings, aerial droids and kamikaze’s the player.
- The droid Mogey has been re-wrote to track aerial droids only. They no longer attack backline buildings. This is to balance the change to iTCe.
- The tooltips have been re-wrote to include more direction.
- Moved consumable items available forwards giving the player quicker access to items.
- Added more background art to the editor including satellites dishes and trash mounds.
Let us know your thoughts on the above changes. Thanks for reading and take care.
[ 2016-02-04 21:12:53 CET ] [ Original post ] Welcome to Death by Game Show. A game of pop culture, decision making chaos and hidden parodies starring U.H.Wutt. A lead-footed tub of goo sentenced to rehabilitation in a time of droid tyranny and human ignorance.
Become the smarts behind Wutt’s rehabilitation, or as the fine print calls it “kidnap-come-illegal-trial-leading-to-banishment-and-death-sentence”. Fight back against the tyranny, free the minds of humanity and find freedom-for-all!
- Twitch Strategy - Death by Game Show puts survival and success into your own hands. It’s not about power but how resourceful and reactive you can be. Can you think your way to victory?
- The Learning Curve - Anyone can spawn a droid but can you do it while grabbing coins? ...placing buildings? ...spinning for loot? ...dodging attacks? Can you react decisively and win?
- Customization - You can modify the game’s text, give the droids a paint job and build your own levels. Can you make and share the best via the workshop and win a prize?
- Story delivery - In Death by Game Show the story is told through short social exchanges, battlecries and hidden messages. Can you cut through the BS and find the truth?
- Satire - Death by Game Show is about fictional characters, in a fictional show within a fictional universe based on our satirical view of modern day life. Meanings, metaphors and parodies are everywhere but will you spot them?
Death by Game Show is still very much being refined and improved. Reach out to us via the discussions as we take all constructive criticism seriously.
