04. Demo 1.2 release and new boomerang item
Dear players,
Another small demo update has been released for your enjoyment.
Mainly, the goal of this specific release is to fix the issues reported by kind folks over on my Discord.
The new demo features:
- New item added: level 2 boomerang (found in one of the secret chests in the demo)
- You can now probe walls for hidden secrets (via "grabbing" - a special animation will play if secrets are present)
- Added extra screen effects to make boss deaths more memorable
- Dropped player health and the starting revival item
- Made visual improvements to the demo dungeon map
- Added a few more sound effects
- Fixed error on gamepad options screen
- Several smaller tweaks and bugfixes
If you happen to still find issues in this game, please let me know. I WILL make it a point to address them ASAP.
You can reach out to me on this site, or via the project Discord sever. The invite link is: https://discord.gg/redHXyZ2Gc
We recently also added a bunch of cool, cute and weird emotes over there. So come join us for that as well, if you're into that sort of thing.
And finally I want to give a shout out to Darsycho, who made this nice recording of the first half of the demo dungeon recently. Check it out if you're looking for a walkthrough:
Greetings,
Martijn
