Weekly (Sorta) Update: Flashy Minimap, Literally

Hello, So, sure enough, although I never promised anything, my weekly build update streak ended. This is partly due to the fact Ive been working on a new trailer and partly my failure as a human being. Also, this update isnt terribly exciting either. Ive shown my game at a few, small more in-person events in the last couple weeks and still felt like I needed to make some changes the beginning sequence to help players understand. I refuse to just put giant text chunks and instead, each time I see someone struggle in a way I dont want them to struggle, I make inch by inch concessions in my tutorial. Anyway, build 0.4.155 is now available. - Minimap now flashes the first time you get on the whales saddle - New approach for dog damage that I may revert: when they lose their last heart, they buck their riders and auto fly back to whale and cannot be shot down out of the sky and are invincible, unless the red ring count down to 0 and there was no nest available/they couldnt reach it in time. - "no hearts" and "no kiting yet" better layout - New saddle wording on prep list - Summon whale hint added at fork - Initializing reticle aim upon equipping tool properly - Increased item mass and drag on ground - Increased stick trigger size to large circle - A bunch of custom behaviors for making_trailer purposes, but should be quarantined behind the making_trailer check - Solar panel absorption visuals - Fixed ladder facing direction bug - Summoned dogs try to pick nest right away now - Battery visuals made - Suns at the treehouse finally - Buried key - Whale parking added at fork

FLOCK OF DOGS is a wild 1- to 8-player couch co-op adventure. Mount your winged dog to join the flying crew of dog riders. Then with your brother and sister dog riders, navigate treacherous and wonderous skies, solve environmental puzzles, and engage in high flying twin stick shooter battles. Soar through the air, wield harpoons, carry solar panels, fire cannonballs, pick apples, mop dirt, read maps, take naps, and make life long friends with a flying whale. Together, go on a road trip through the sky with handmade and procedurally generated levels. Discover secrets, defeat enemies, and achieve the great symbiosis of dog, whale, and rider!

UP TO EIGHT PLAYER LOCAL CO-OP
2 to 8 players (or 1 player with a magic whale whistle) need to work together to guide the flock. Many weapons and tools require teammwork, such as the hose + mop, the triplicator shield, and the electric clothesliner. Progression is largely linked to the dogs and the sky whale, allowing individual players to drop in/drop out at any time.

TEND TO YOUR FLOCK
Care for your feathered canines by providing food and water, and teaching them new tricks such as rollover, bite, and play dead. Raise the next generation of puppies to ensure the survival of the flock.

ATTACH EQUIPMENT TO YOUR WHALE
Stash items and resources in the belly of the whale. Visit the whalesmith to buy whale attachments such as a horn drill, spot light, solar shield system, and anchor.

DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENTS AND CHALLENGE
Many paths lay before the flock and decisions along the journey will affect the story's end. Daring teams of clever dog riders can choose routes with devious monsters and puzzling mysteries. While others may choose leisurely routes with comfy sky inns, (mostly) friendly flying creatures, and brightly lit sky canyons.
