This update overhauls the controls for PC players and the soon to come Nintendo Switch players. The most notable change is the addition of a "third face".
Controls
- Added the option of "3 faces". This allocates the functions of some powerups to an additional face button (C/magic).
- The statue powerup can now be activated with C/magic or B/toss, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.
- The freeze powerup is now activated by C/magic, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.
- The static powerup is now activated by C/magic, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.
- When "3 faces" is toggled OFF, the static powerup is now deactivated by A/jump.
- The rose powerup can now be activated with C/magic or down, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.
- The controls menu now uses a controller diagram, showing the ideal location of the inputs being mapped.
- The controls menu now uses a model Belle avatar, showing the function of the inputs being mapped when applicable.
- Weapon descriptions (seen on the pause menu) have been slightly changed to match the terminology used on the controls menu.
- To match the pause menu, the weapon icons on the bottom-right of the screen now use button symbols (A, B, and C), if a gamepad is plugged in.
Misc.
- The game can now be paused while Belle is controlling a statue or inside of an electric current.
- Fixed a bug where a puff of smoke would appear when exiting the statistics room in the Backstage.
- Slightly adjusted the placements of some tiles in Act 8.
Please notify me if you have any troubles with your gamepad of choice! Thank you!
