I figured I'd show the people that pre-ordered the game my progress.
there's been some significant changes since the demo, new areas, the prototype 2nd boss.
nerfs to upgrades (so i have more of them to place)
the thin platforms can no longer be dropped through, so some of them have been removed. this was mainly because i got annoyed trying to jump and aim down at the 2nd boss while on one.
the first boss also has a new attack pattern.
im also trying to rework the way crushing works so it's an automatic death, but one that teleports you back to the previous checkpoint with no loss. that's a mechanic people will be just dying to abuse to skip bosses if they can. but i get some narrative bonuses in return for it.
the 2nd gas area near where you got the walljump ability doesnt lead anywhere yet. I just felt like i absolutely needed to show the progress.
I also have some animated game over animations made with live2d but the game already takes 2 minutes to compile every time i want to playtest so they'll be the last thing i add.
