BETA 0.9.11 released!

Hyperbole
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

I've had some feedback from the beta that was released two weeks ago, and went to work.

Fixes in this new version:

  • When  you respawn, you can start moving immediately (you don't have to wait for the fade-from-white to complete anymore). This was annoying for people who wanted to try again quickly.
  • You can now skip the end-of-level animations if you want
  • There are graphics settings in which you can:
    • Turn Bloom on/off
    • Turn Motion Blur on/off
    • Change the game's resolution

All great suggestions! 

It's interesting for me to get this kind of feedback. As a solo game developer, I sometimes become blind to small niggles and frustrations, but when they are pointed out by others, I often go "of course, that was actually bothering me too, just not enough to fix it". I should learn from that, and pro-actively try to fix everything that annoys me even the slightest, as it's almost sure to come out during  testing!
