Hey folks, We're starting to go back over the core levels and deal with some of the difficulty issues. World 2 and 4 were definitely at the top of our list! For today we've done a thorough pass on World 2: reduced the drag and increased the gravity when underwater. Overall this makes the underwater movement a little faster, and allows you to hit further. This means there's more scope to adjust your shot in the air, and to roll further on the ground added in some support-structures to allow for this slightly altered underwater physics changed up the arrow-bubbles for underwater. This was a tricky one. Essentially the old arrow bubbles (the both the auto ones and the ones you can manually rotate) took into account your current velocity while you're inside the bubble. So even though these bubbles shoot you out quite quickly, you could get wildly different results depending on whether you were falling, moving upwards, sideways, etc. This made accuracy/consistency extremely difficult. So instead we replaced them (just the ones in this world) with zipper-bubbles, which cancel out any previous velocity you had, so they reliably shoot you exactly in the direction they're pointing made the water a little more transparent added in a powerup that gives you temporary slow-motion. This is mainly for transitioning from above to below the water-surface, where the slow-motion gives you more time to react to what you couldn't see from above the surface generally tweaked the pars and time-targets to make getting golds more fair in all the world 2 levels

Mage Drops Depot Linux [819.1 M]
The environment itself is full of magical capabilities. Some can be used to your advantage, and some are hazards and traps: shots can cling to jelly walls, bounce off bubbles, be propelled by explosions, float on clouds, burn away obstacles with fire, gain powers by flying through magic rings, stimulate plants to grow into new platforms and much more!
The Feel:
• The worlds are bright and uncluttered, with serene music, nature elements and a relaxing gameplay tempo
• Gameplay is transparent and accessible, simple enough for a complete beginner, but revealing its challenge and mastery for more seasoned players
The Goals:
• A unique scoring system combines the traditional strokes/par of golf with timer-based scoring. So you need to be precise AND fast to discover all the game has to offer
• There are collectibles and platforming puzzles: unlock and explore all worlds in the game by scoring a gold in each level. Fun platforming puzzles must be mastered to discover all the secret collectibles and find the game's true ending
The Journey:
• master the use of magic: fire, water, wind, earth, electricity and much more, to find the fastest way through courses and discover all the secrets!
• 8 unique worlds in the final game, from forests to underwater, from a machine world to the cosmos! The gameplay in each is themed, so new possibilities, tricks, and traps unfold as you unlock new worlds. The first world is forest themed: trees can be grown to use as platforms, giant flowers can suck shots in and spit them out, living bushes can block the shots, and even more. Discover the unique possibilities of each world!
