Upcoming demo changes!

Hey everyone!

Thank you for playing the Neuron Activation demo. After gathering some feedback, I’m working on a few changes and additions that I believe will improve the overall demo experience.

COMING SOON:

Stars & Rankings
First of all, I’m reviewing the star requirements for each stage.
Stars 1-5 will be easier to obtain, and the red stars (Overlord ranking) will also be slightly easier, while still keeping them challenging.

There will also be a new star tier for those who truly want to master the game.
(More info on that in a later post.)

Secret Stage Tasks
Secret tasks will be added to a couple of stages, keep your eyes peeled!
If you manage to complete them during your run, you’ll be able to read a secret message in the final score screen and earn some extra points as well.

Leveling System
Number going up = Neuron Activation.
I’ll be adding the leveling system to the demo. In the full game, it will unlock some cool stuff, but in the demo, you’ll mainly see your level going up... bragging rights still count, though.

Stage 6 - Clocks
The final stage time bonuses will be adjusted. They’ll be easier to obtain overall, while still rewarding fast players even more.

Tutorial Improvements
I’ll be making a few tweaks to ensure new players understand more advanced techniques that can significantly boost their score in the long run.

Bug Fixes & Translation Corrections
bugs and translation errors will also be addressed.

That's all for now!

Thank you again for your time, keep on tasking.
