The "Lily Pond", "Magic Frog Altar", and "Anura Tek" (shop) have all been redesigned, among others!
Huge optimizations come with this patch as well, improving FPS and general gameplay.
Ready to collect new, never-before-seen frog data? Let's go!
=======================
New to "Frog Up!" v0.9_gamma_3:
Certain items, such as the "Trellis Fence" & "Picket Fence", can block frogs from hopping 'through' them, effectively controlling their possible path.
Specifically, the frogs attempt to find a path that will not take them into a bounding box that's roughly equivalent to the bottom half of the item's individual render.
Frogs will be unable to move if completely fenced in, fair warning! x]
The design for the "Lily Pond" home habitat has been given a major facelift!
Trees now line the edges of your home habitat, and item positions may have been shifted for already placed items. Sorry, but you'll have to pick them back up and replace them in that case! </3
Default background flower, log, and stone clutter has been reduced, moved further to the edges near the trees, and should now stay in the same place regardless of screen resizing.
Birds, butterflies, and dragonflies will only spawn during the day time, and slowly leave as night fades in.
The designs for the "Magic Frog Altar" & "Anura Tek" habitats have both given a major facelift!
These two scenes have been given more detail, more clutter decoration, & more life.
Both habitats now have a proper working day-night cycle that matches with the "Lily Pond" habitat.
The "Frog Wizard" and "Patches" NPCs have both had their designs completely updated, as well, and they look much cooler now. B-)
Huge rendering optimizations for all graphics, boosting FPS in most habitats (including the home "Lily Pond" habitat) several times over!
For the detail oriented, the issue was mostly with redundant rendering passes & GL operations, plus a bit of frog pathing math and unnecessary file reads, that all added up dramatically. Cleaned that up for the most part, though.
The "Quests" section of the "Frog Wizard" menu in the "Magic Frog Altar" habitat should now properly update stat values, without needing to reload the game.
Miscellaneous code & text changes.
Tentative full game support for MAC, LINUX & STEAM operating systems!
Massive DESIGN OVERHAUL for older habitats to make them look better!
TADPOLES! STAR FROGS! NEW NPCs! Oh my! :D
...and even a HUGE NEW HABITAT to explore!
New remix of deadmau5 just dropped, yooo?!
