Hello there! A major new update to the demo of Lumberjump has just released, adding in a second level as well as featuring several other changes listed below:
- Added Magma Mountain level.
- Several changes to the Platform Plains level, mostly in the form of adding in new decorations and slight adjustments in the layout.
- Added new level complete screen.
- Added level select screen.
- Added controls in title screen and pause menu.
- Enemies can now be killed by jumping on them.
- Power-ups, extra lives and checkpoints now have a text showing their properties pop up once collected / activated.
- Power-ups now have a new timer sound effect.
- Added in tutorial signs showing how to perform certain actions.
- Slightly lowered PJ's run speed and jump height, which is compensated by his increased axe throw jump height.
- Several changes and fixes to the camera movement, in particular to make it scroll down faster.
I think all of these changes significantly improve the gameplay, and together with the addition of Magma Mountain the project has taken a big leap since the last update. I'm excited to continue work on the game, and I hope y'all are just as excited to play!
