CHANGELOG - Beta 1.4

Cataclysm 2.0
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

This update, while small for a content update, has also overhauled and redone a lot of older systems that were half broken and half unbalanced. Most of the planned content for this update will come in 1.4.1, I just wanted to get this update out so it could get playtested while I was working on more content. Anyway, here's the changelog.

GOLDEN GROVE

  • Added the Golden Grove area
  • Added the Ichor Fly enemy
  • Added a new boss - The Ichor Golem
  • Added 2 new music tracks
    • Amber Amalgamation (Ichor Golem theme)
    • Golden (Golden Grove theme)
  • Added a new Golden Grove splash screen

OVERHAULED

  • Completely remade the UI
  • Upgraded the graphics options menu
  • Remade 3 music tracks
    • Dread (Title theme)
    • Crimson Ghosts (Crimson Forest theme)
    • Eternal Bloom (Blossom's boss theme)
  • Remade the Crimson Forest splash screen

WEAPONS

  • Added the Flower Power
  • Introduced Special type weapons
  • Added the Crimson Horror (special weapon for the Crimson Forest)

OTHER STUFF

  • Added a sound settings menu
  • Removed health runes
  • Added a new health upgrade system (reach certain points in the game to get extra health)
  • Renamed the Crimson Horror (not the special weapon, the secondary weapon. confusing, I know) to the Bloodshot
  • Added a theme for the Homeworld
  • Added a sound effect that plays when you take damage
  • Made projectiles do less damage

BUG FIXES

  • Boss sprites appear behind environment sprites - FIXED!
  • Gold count not updating in shop - FIXED!
  • Buy button active when it's not meant to be in shop - FIXED!
  • Blossom spawns pink projectiles in 2nd phase sometimes - FIXED!
  • ...and more that didn't exist before this update so I'm not going to list them.
