Demo Patch 1

Hey! Thanks for playing the demo! We're collecting feedback, fixing bugs, and improving the demo continuously. Here's everything we've updated since the initial demo release:

New

• Shops in the overworld show a swirly thingy when there're something you can buy there.
• Added a wave counter to in-game interface.
• Added a settings button to the pause menu.

Improved

• Improved tower targeting. It's the same algorithm (the enemy closest to its target) but more reliable.
• Made both scenarios in Pondonia a tiny bit easier to beat.
• Improved edge colliders of Pondonia to reduce the chances of getting stuck with the player character.
• Made enemies less likely to get stuck behind towers.
• Differentiated tower base types (basecamp, defensive, and offensive) more from each other.
• Slower projectile graphics better match their range.
• Scenario description now also highlights when a scenario is still locked.
• Minor improvements to English translations. (Other languages will have to wait for now, sorry!)
• Various minor interface improvements.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed flashing cloud reflections in the ponds of Pondonia.
• Fixed the in-game interface disappearing on with multiple monitors setups on Windows.
• Removed unused tower bases in the Beach level.
• Fixed loading getting stuck in the overworld when trying to escape during the loading screen.
• Fixed option not being shown as selected when running into a build inspector with an input direction.
• Fixed various small bugs relating to pausing the game.

Please let us know on the forums here if you stumble upon anything we should improve or fix.

Happy Rifting,

Sim & Adriaan
