Leveling System
Added extra dopamine release with the new leveling system.
You can now level up your Model by earning stars and completing stage bonuses.
Each level grants different rewards.
In the demo, rewards are available up to Level 7. You can continue leveling beyond that, but no additional rewards are unlocked. Well… seeing a big number go even bigger is a reward in itself, right?
Extras Menu
You can now access the "Extras" menu.
Customize your experience with titles, cursors, backgrounds, and more.
Player Card
Added a Player Card displaying your name (hopefully you picked a cool one, since you can’t change it… yet), title, and interactive badge.
Yes, you can click the badge as much as you want.
Unlockables
Added new unlocks for completing specific milestones. Example: Completing Stage 10 unlocks a special Title.
Presentation Improvements
Added an intro animation at the beginning of each stage showing the artist name and the music that's being played.
Added a custom splash screen during loading.
Added a Restart button to the pause menu (Esc).
Added extra effects when earning the Overlord and D3V.BR34K3R stars.
Added a small indicator showing how many points you need for the Overlord star if you received a 5-star rating.
New
Added a new question to the Onboarding story beat after completing Stage 1.
Added a "Chat" tutorial to Stage 4.
Added extra animations for a special scene. You’ll also hear a new voice line when returning.
