Version 0.4.6 Beta Update

Changelog


Major Changes


  • Cloak's Terminal Velocity has been lowered by almost half. This will cause Cloak to stop increasing speed as they fall after a few seconds, leading to a slower overall fall speed over time.
  • Adjusted the sprite position for certain ascending/descending sprites on Cloak to make them line up better with their actual hitbox. This should help make things feel more visually consistent.
  • All Crumble Bricks now have their terrain hitbox removed a bit earlier, to match the visuals of the brick being mostly gone. Feels better to me... how's it feel to you?

Minor Changes


  • Various controller button names have been replaced with shorter ones. (e.g. "Left/Right Trigger" is now "LT" and "RT" respectively.
  • Removed the obscuring of non-unlocked level names. Seems pointless.
  • Box tiles in the dungeon area are now much brighter, helping them appear as terrain instead of appearing to be background.
  • Can now use Left/Right for all diagonal menu controls as well as Up/Down.

Map Changes


Dash The Gap


  • Moved the gem in an effort to prevent new players from accidentally touching the door when failing to reach it. As a bonus, it's now set above the enemy you dash into, which I'm hoping will help teach players that you bounce straight upward on enemies if you aren't pressing Forward.

Snatch The Key!


  • Moved the gem in an effort to prevent new players from accidentally touching the door when failing to reach it. Placed in a position where the key's double jump will help you get it, but left a little ledge so newer players can still reach it without the double jump.

The Box Hop


  • Removed the point orb above the 2nd gooncopter. Seems gratuitous.
  • Lowered the 2nd gem to have players (hopefully) dash into the 2nd gooncopter.
  • Added diagonal spikes to make things look better.

Cross Stitch


  • Cleaned up the spikes a bit.

Unstable Ceiling


  • Moved some of the point orbs around to make things a bit easier for the player.
  • Moved the Massive point orb in the top right down a bit to prevent players from being able to go through it. (Yes, that means you Kadef...) That said, I kept the ability to slip it underneath the bottom point orb. I figure it's hard enough to do.

The Floor Is Lava


  • Expanded the gap of the point orbs at the start.
  • Added some diagonal spikes.

Dodge and Dig (Formerly Dig Around)


  • This map is largely just unliked. I've modified the level to intead be based on arrow dodging while needing to trigger a single crumble block.

Spiky Fists


  • Cleaned up the spikes a bit around the map.
  • Added a spring to the middle area, instead of having the player climb up spikes.

New Security Measures


  • Slightly lowered the rate of fire for some arrow traps.

In A Daze


  • Replaced the bottom part. Wasn't liking the janky feeling of hitting your head and trying to get across. Now it's more about getting across spike gaps.

Right Above Your Nose


  • Slightly lowered the fire rate of all the arrow traps.
  • Shifted the springs on the upper right down a slight bit, allowing them to be reachable immediatly after getting the gem in the arrow traps.

The Guard Dogs


  • Reworked slightly to allow players to destroy the Shieldfaces along the way. The idea is to let players choose between fighting them ahead of time, or fighting them now.
  • Removed the patrooligans at the top area to reduce the chaos a bit.

The Spike Pits


  • Slightly lowered the fire rate on the bottom arrow traps.

Stairway To Riches


  • Removed two of the gems, making it easier to 100% this one.

Air Traffic Control


  • Widened the gap of the point orbs a bit. Should make it easier to do the 100% path.
  • Raised the back end patrooligan to make it easier to reach the upper patrooligans.
  • Some cosmetic changes to the spikes below.

Shieldface On Patrol


  • Heavily redesigned the top right area to add a bit more to the level. Can no longer go straight to the exit door, must go underground now.
  • Modified the bottom area to be a bit less cramped.

Over The Hump


  • Raised the floor a bit so you can get up the first hump without needing to get up the first tile.
  • Removed the spikes that are no longer needed.

Bridge of Goon


  • Raised the ceiling above the the bridge a bit.

Shieldface Gorge


  • Extended the edges of the "safe zone" a bit to help encourage players to dash into it instead of jumping into it.
  • Replaced the Point Orbs above the safe zone with spikes.
  • Slightly moved the spring over to the left a bit to let the Shieldfaces make it over the new spikes.

Hallway of Arrows


  • Opened up the right side a bit more for the spring up.

The Second Time Around


  • Made the ceiling a bit heigher above the key.
  • Tightened up the space you fall to reach the gems, ensuring while you fall you'll get the gems.

Boxed In


  • Removed the gooncopter, it's no longer needed.
  • Modified the right side of the map to no longer have crumble bricks, instead put a small point orb in the middle of one of the blocks that must be avoid on the way down.
  • Slightly shifted the Shieldface at the end to the left, giving the player more room to slip through them if they wish.
  • Shifted the point orbs to help the player a bit.

Over Your Head


  • Basically a full redesign.
  • Note: Will probably rename this level in the near future, since the name doesn't make sense anymore...

Somewhere Above The Rainbow


  • Moved the lower key up a bit.
  • Added an extra gooncopter on the right side.
  • Made the upper key area a bit larger.

The Under Over


  • Cleaned up the spikes quite a bit.
  • Removed one of the gems on the left side.
  • Removed one of the gooncopters that helps you get to the gems at the start.
  • Shifted the gooncopters in the upper area to make it easier to chain them.

The Over Under


  • Opened up the gaps in the small point orbs.

Excel-eration


  • Some cosmetic changes to spikes.

The Key Alcove


  • Modified the upper area to be fully spike based instead of Point Orbs.
  • Greatly opened the upper area up.

Tight Corridors


  • Modified the final gooncopter stomp section to give you much more space to play with, and to prevent you from hitting the ceiling spikes.

Perilous Pits


  • Made the pit on the right lower.
  • Reshaped the upper area to not require the dash grace mechanic to get in there.
  • Placed the upper arrow shooters on the right side and set them to fire at the same time.

Pillars of the Community


  • Heavily modified the pathing to be a bit easier.
  • Less spikes in some areas.
  • Removed some no longer needed Gooncopters.
  • Added an extra Gooncopter to the right side.

Gnats in the Garden


  • Tons of changes to help widen everything and make it a fair bit easier.

All Roads Lead To Treasure


  • Reworked the bottom area a bit.
  • Slowed the arrow rates.

Bridge of Keys


  • Raised the ceilings a bit along the "bridge".
  • Lowered the fire rate on the arrows just a bit.

Hallway of Arrows


  • Opened up the right side a bit more for the spring up.
  • Added a slight delay to the arrows shooting at the start, giving the player a bit of time to drop down safely at the start.
  • Added another tile of open space after the dash at the end 100% route.

Fly to the Finish


  • Made the starting platform solid, giving players to evaluate the situation.
  • Shifted the small point orb above the lowest key up a bit to make it a bit easier to grab.
  • Shifted the small point orb on the top right down a bit to make getting the gem a bit easier.

Soaring Past the Spikes


  • Removed most of the arrow traps. It felt too hard to time, and not fun. Instead I've replaced the challenge with point orbs above the keys, making climbing a bit trickier.
  • Placed the arrow traps on the right side above pointing down at the gem instead.

Valley of Thorns


  • Made the 100% route much wider.

Order of Operations


  • Replaced some of the Massive Point Orbs with Large Ones.
  • Cleaned up the spikes a bit.
  • Lowered the hump at the end that leads to the door.

Boxed Out


  • Complete rework of the bottom area.
  • Removed the spikes on the ceilings of the middle area.

Ruler of the Mountain


  • Modified the lower area to be easier to get out of/into.
  • Removed the arrow trap from the top right.
  • Added more thorns all over the place.

Bug Fixes


  • MAJOR: Fixed bug in Marathon mode that would hard lock the game if you tried to go to Next Chapter despite there not being one to go to. (Thanks Amber!)
  • MAJOR: Fixed bug where Marathon stats would not update the proper chapter you're on if "Next Chapter" was chosen.
