Hotfix for this update is out now. Shopkeeper bug in Story mode tutorial area was resolved
General (QoL features)
Camera zoom
Added new settings into preferences tab. Players can now adjust ingame camera zoom by maximum of +/- 20 percent.
Novice difficulty changes
- Double jump is now always active in both classic and story mode while the novice setting is turned on
- When you start new story mode journey, you can grab an upgraded helmet to gain bonus stats right away
- Added new visual indicators at the start of the story mode for better navigation of new players
Added low stamina indication
Once you drain your stamina to critical values, new visual and sound indication will be set off to notify you. (Previously, it was harder to notice that player will run out of stamina which led to situations where player died without knowing what killed him.)
Cheat settings
I also added cheat settings which can provide a lot of fun in classic and story mode. Cheat settings are hidden but can be accessed by all players from somewhere in the main menu. Specific features are listed once you find the settings.
Story mode changes
Equipable items rework
- Previously, there were items which could be equipped only when you had lower-graded item from its set currently equipped on you. In addition, when player equipped the better item, lower-graded item which was previously equipped by player was destroyed and could not be equipped again.
- You can now equip items however you want - it does not matter if you have better or worse item already equipped.
- Once you equip new item, old item will be added to your inventory if you have a free slot in it (which should be always since you will empty the slot by equipping new item before the old item is returned to your inventory).
Some equipable items now has new stats
- For example helmets used to give bonus HP only, but will give you some extra stamina too now.
- Some shields will give you more bonus HP but can lower your maximum stamina by few points.
Bugfixes
- Previusly, when player found a chest with item, wanted to grab it, had similar (same) item already in inventory but inventory was full, said item would not stack to the inventory slot with the same item and disappeared instead. This game behaviour was resolved.
- Previously, when player used the "take a look" feature in Story mode, he was still able to walk in some occassions which could cause unintended player deaths. This game behaviour was resolved.
