Better Skip Text Feature Added!

Escape Path Beta
A browser awesomeness made in HTML5

Many people requested for an option to skip through the dialogue you’ve already seen for when you die and go back to a checkpoint, (or if you just don’t want to read all of it lol). There are a few ways you could get through the dialogue fast like alternating shift and enter fast or increasing the textspeed, but now you can also hold down shift and it will speed up the text really fast and progress through the lines without having to hit enter. Additionally, whenever you let go of the shift key, it will go back to normal so you can stop quickly if you start skipping through dialogue you want to see. I like this way because even while skipping through, you are reminded of the dialogue in that part and you don’t have to go into the options menu to turn ‘Skip Text’ off. If you want to play the game without any dialogue and infinite rooms, check out Escape Path Alpha instead and choose Arcade mode. For this version of the game, there’s a higher focus on the story and the choices you make as you progress through the cave. 

I also updated the sound quality and game performance using tips from this website: https://medium.com/@a.mstv/making-your-unity-game-scream-and-shout-and-not-killi… . I found it really helpful so definitely check it out if you are interested in game development! 

Finally, I fixed some bugs with the player being able to sleep and move during the dialogue.
