Released 0.6.4 - Experimental

Sand: A Superfluous Game
A downloadable game for Windows

The newest version will now be added as the 'experimental' branch so those that want to help me bug squash can download that one and those that just want a stable fun game can download the normal one.

So much to say in this one. I've added and tweaked a lot of stuff. I know if I listed them all out I will miss a lot, but here is a list of some of the major ones I remember.

  • Missions
    • I finished the human/radar dish/Anchor Rage missions
    • There are several ways to finish this storyline.
    • I have several side missions in Achor Rage that I pulled at the last minute (they should be in the next update though)
  • Locations
    • I added Raider Camp 2 and It's 'basement'. There sneak peek at what is coming later.
    • I also added the Raider's main town. Well... not really. I had a bigger base with lots of buildings that got erased because my game crashed while making it. So I made a 'functioning' town that I'll update later to include the full idea I had. This town at least has roofs :)
    • I plan on updating all the locations with roofs and just making them look better in the future.
  • Item snaps
    • I change the item placement in the building menu to be 4px instead of 2px. Hopefully, this is a good change and you like it. If you hate it let me know.
  • Graphics
    • Changed the way crates look to make them bigger.
      • I might make crates 'stackable' as we discussed in the Discord earlier. This would make it so small crates are built and then by building on them again you'd get a medium crate and finally a tall crate.
    • Roofs now have ridges
      • I am not sure if this is in the older version but now roofs look less flat. I am still working on this system to make it look 'right'
  • Powers
    • I added the rock throw power which looks cool. I feel like it is underpowered though. Let me know what you think.

I'll add more as I remember them.
