Demo Update v1.5

Hi there. It's been a minute.
Today is the start of Steam FPS Fest, so with that in mind, here's Box Party Demo v1.5.

This update's purpose is to bring a bunch of features in the game to my 2024 standards, this may range from small tweaks to complete rewrites. Also, there's some new hats. :)

Alright so here's the changelog

NEW STUFF:

• Added a brand new NewGameMenu, complete with new graphics, support for unlockable characters/levels, and even high score tracking for every individual character/level.
• Added 3 new hats, plus 1 secret hat.
• Replaced most fonts in the game with a new HD font, to improve text readability. Will add back the old font as an option later.
• Removed the Difficulty Select Level, as this has been superseded by the new newgamemenu.
• Replaced the demo end screen with a better one.
• Replaced the old achievement popups with my own custom unlock popups.
• Streamlined the Side Quest UI a bit.

smaller changes:

• Added shameless ingame advertisements for the other game im making. I am not sorry.
• Increased score bonus for completing side quests.
• Fixed the incorrect Y-scaling of all weapons. (finally)
• The beach ball no longer deals damage. (sorry)
• The minimum version of gzdoom required is now v4.11.3.
• Improved performance of many particles.
• Some small improvements to how Hats are handled.
• Prevent the player from getting 1 million points from using cheats to kill monsters.
• You can no longer access gameplay modifiers until you beat the demo at least once.
• If you attempt to use the old side quest keybind, you'll get a message informing you to use the automap instead.
• Fixed the death message being offset incorrectly.
• Added a couple teasers for upcoming Full Version content.

Hope you enjoy the new demo version. This will probably be the last large update to Box Party Demo until I work on the full version content. There's sure to be a bug or two in this new update, so don't be afraid to report any issues you have while playing.

In the meantime, if you want more content from me, you should go check out my other game that I'm currently making, DI: Debt is Inevitable. The itchio page for it is not public yet, so instead, here's a link to go wishlist it on steam. 
My plan is to release DI later this year, and finish Box Party next year. Not making any promises though.
