Beta 0.3 IS OUT NOW!

Crystal Odyssey
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Guess who's back and working on it? This update focuses more on the stuff you don't see but includes a completely new story mission and a new combat mechanic. Here are the details:

Visible Changes:

  • Music in the menu, first mission, and wizard mission has been changed.
  • New area which will serve as the main story hub for the first part of the story.
  • New second mission with the new combat mechanic.
  • New combat mechanic: point your mouse at something in the second mission and fire with the right-click.
  • New cooldown for the new combat mechanic, displayed at the right side of the health bar in mission 2.
  • Enemies behave slightly differently due to a massive code rewrite.
  • New report system accessible in the Escape menu at the bottom right.

Changes in the Background:

  • Cloud diagnostics implemented for error catching and the report system.
  • Preparation for the end fight of the game: Due to excessive lag caused by enemies, I created a new version of enemies without lag. However, during the rewrite, I accidentally made some changes to the old enemies, resulting in slightly different behavior. (Note: The new enemies are only for a prototype of the end fight and are not yet in the game.)

Check my other devlogs for more information about all the changes.

See you (hopefully) soon!
