Vast Forecast
A downloadable game for Windows

This update almost doubles the amount of enemies in the game, as well as introducing a ton of major improvements.

Content and Additions:

  • Floor generation (mostly for Planetree Isle) has been heavily improved. Forests actually feel like forests now.
  • Added Flower enemy to Planetree Isle.
  • Added Cactus enemy to Sandspring Oasis.
  • Added Snow Slime enemy to Chillytop Mountains.
  • Added Snow Cricket enemy to Chillytop Mountains.
  • Added Mud Slime enemy to Bogwood Basin.
  • Completely reworked Dendromancer (previously named Forest Mage).
  • Made countless changes to existing enemies, including changing animation speeds, drop rates, behavior, and stats.

Aesthetic Changes and Improvements:

  • Removed all enemy death animations and replaced them with particles.
  • Replaced the effect for picking up items with particles.
  • Sped up the grass chopping effect.

Balance Changes and Tweaks:

  • Bees sometimes aggro Flowers instead of the player.
  • You can now only hold 2 Ammo Boxes and Medkits instead of 3.
  • Changed the informative description for Jumping Plague.

Addressed Issues and Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed a bug where time would count up while the game was paused.
  • Fixed a bug where the inventories would hide while indoors.
  • Fixed a bug where certain bullet types wouldn't do their effect if you hit an enemy on the first frame. The biggest example of this happening is Rock not dropping itself.
