Hi everyone!
After a long time without posting anything, I'm here to say that the next Raven's Carnage update is closer than ever. I'm still hard at work on it, so without taking too much of your time, here's everything I'm working on right now:
Brand-new Main Menu. Raven's Carnage is finally getting the definitive Main Menu it deserves. I still need to create a proper background artwork (I'm using AI as a placeholder right now, and I'm not very proud of it).
Save Slots. You'll be able to have three different save files. If you ever get bored with your current run, you can simply start a new game without deleting your existing progress.
New Hub Layout. I'm never completely satisfied with how the Main Hub feels, so I'm trying to make it the best it can be.
Minor UI improvements.
Perk Machine jingles are being removed. I'm replacing them with a dynamic ambient soundtrack. I think this makes the game feel more "arcade" while also being more immersive. You'll hear calmer music when things are quiet, and more intense music once the screen starts filling up with monsters. Overall, I think this works much better than having only ambient sounds mixed with the Perk Machine jingles.
I think that's everything for now! I'll keep posting updates on the game's page as development continues.
I'm aiming to release this update next month, so stay tuned!
