Demo update coming soon, and a note regarding the slowdown issues (read the article)


I know it's been years, again, but your continuous support is something what gives me a little more of motivation. We gotta close this page nonetheless, but we'll talk about this later.

Please look forward to see an old-but-new demo on SAGE 2020. A lot of quality-of-life features are coming soon, including an actual fix of slowdown issues. Unfortunately, some of things are gonna be scrapped, because I realized they are not really fit to the game. Quality over quantity, is that right?

Speaking of the slowdowns – it turns out that the controller support system included with Game Maker 8 is what was actually causing lags all this time. I have already replaced it with a custom one, and never experienced any lag since then. But if you are playing the current demo and slowdowns are present – try to plug the controller, unplug and plug it again, or vice-versa. It sounds random, but that should help you. If gamepads are in, the game won't looking for them indefinitely.

That's all for now, as I feel like you guys should be informed about the present bugs. I don't want you to be way too excited with this quick note. No matter how fast or slow the progress is going, I'm certain that the game should work fine in the current state in any case. That's what I want to achieve with the next update. Hope you understand!

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
