Demo Update 0.2.1: Smoother and Clearer

Hold Morale · published

Performance

  • The main menu now loads while the Velovyn logo is shown. Afterwards it runs smoothly right away, with no freeze and no stutter.
  • The loading screen stays until the map runs smoothly, so the mission briefing appears without stutter.
  • “Begin Attack” now starts the battle without the short pause.

Battle

  • New: at the start of every turn, a banner with the round number and “Your Turn” or “Enemy Turn” sweeps across the screen.
  • Units move smoothly. They used to jerk briefly when starting and stopping.
  • The turn change now plays a single sound instead of two in a row.
  • The sun rays are more subtle.

Rallying Cry

  • Sterling's Rallying Cry has its own effect: three golden swords strike into each of your units, a shield dome flashes, then the ring spreads out.
  • Activating a commander ability now plays a short fanfare.
