Hold Notes
You asked for it, and now it's here! The note type framework has been updated to include Hold and Bomb notes and simplified to include new note types in the future! These are also available to put in your mods using the in-game level editor!
Level Editor Updates
The level editor has been updated to include the new note types. We've also added quality-of-life functionality, such as previewing your level from the editor's current timestamp. Testing your level will change the pause menu to include a "Return to editor" button, allowing you to switch between the editor and the preview easily! Some other small bug fixes are also included.
A Shift In Gears
The original Artist and Animator for Beat Banger, Komdog, will no longer be doing any drawn artwork or animation for the game. As we shift to new talent, please give a bit of time to get everyone trained and up to the quality standard and style that Beat Banger currently has. Dawna's Level is still being prioritized, and we plan to continue the game's story into volume 2.
