Post Jam Update

Heart of the Forest
A browser game made in HTML5

Some major changes were done to the game after receiving some great feedback during the Jam's rating period:

- Auditory feedback for getting hit, shooting, and boss projectiles have been added

- Overlays are more consistent (less buggy) and scale a little slower so the "death spiral" is more forgiving

- Overlays now include audio distortions alongside their normal visual distortions

- Projectile hitboxes no longer grow in size as they travel

- Buttons can no longer be used to skip bosses

- Game Over and Win screens now have dedicated tracks, along with transition screens

- Restarting while paused no longer soft locks the game

- Boss health bar has been added

- Bullet patterns and projectile counts are now randomized, a new 'enraged' mode for intense repetitive bullet patterns was implemented instead when boss health is low

- Overall audio quality and audio level has been refined
