Financial Windfall (v3.1.0)

(And sequel news!)


It's the gift that keeps on giving!

In what I hope is the final update, I've made some changes to make collecting money less painful. Hopefully this should make it easier for everyone to fully enjoy the game without hours of tedious grinding.

Also, big sequel news! Carnage in Space: Crucible is almost ready for an Early Access release! Stay tuned for a teaser trailer coming soon! Or, skip the wait and get regular development updates on its own page over at https://gamejolt.com/games/carnageinspacecrucible/326575.

NOTE: Unfortunately, I no longer have access to a Mac to test on, so this release does not include a macOS build. I hope to get that rectified before too long.

==== CHANGELOG ====

== Improved money drops ==

* Increased the value of all money drops (again)

* Enemies in Endless Ground/Space battle will drop money instead of nothing when they would normally drop health

* Boss Rush now gives a cash bonus at the end

* Reduced the costs of the most expensive items from $250-$300 down to $150

* Money and collectibles found will be saved when you die or exit the level

* The money counter in the HUD shows your total funds, not the amount you've collected this level

== Fixed content getting skipped ==

* Fixed the LVL6 outro cutscene not playing the first time through if the "Replay Cutscenes" setting is turned off

* Fixed the 9th boss being skipped in Boss Rush

== Other ==

* Fixed a typo in the LVL6 intro cutscene

* Removed the HP counter when Extra Stats is enabled

The poll is over, and Tuhrahkkkii is the winner!

With that, Crucible phase 2 has begun.

For more Carnage in Space news, I highly recommend you take a look over on the sequel's devlog:

Some new background elements in Chapter 4 (N). The sky's a little less barren now that there are more floating rocks off in the background.

These also use 3D depth for accurate scaling, parallax scrolling, and distance fog.

I got a little creative block working on the lake level, so I skipped ahead for a bit.

This is the Boss Rush arena event! You fight many/all bosses back-to-back here.

I decided to go crazy with 3D effects here, since it happens in a virtual reality room.

Just keeping you updated. Work in progress. Support Birdy here by visiting our page. Lotsa love...

In case you missed it - SEQUEL BETA TESTING!

Carnage in Space: Crucible is coming Soon*!

If you'd like to try it early and help me perfect it, read below to join the beta test and score a free copy!

Behold, your reward for beating boss rush - this sick-as-heck 3D cutscene I threw together over the weekend!

Yeah, I know the game is mostly 2D, but I really felt like going way over the top with this game mode. I hope it paid off.

I've been retouching several things in the game that could use a little more love before release.

Among these is the nanotech system! You now get a flashy popup (with confetti and everything) when you unlock one, and the icons are also resigned.

Presented without comment.

I updated the character select screen again!

I ditched the blurred overlay background for a stylish color-changing gradient, and added a spotlight to justify the players' shadows.

I also combined player & difficulty onto 1 screen for efficiency.

Chapter 6 (K) is DONE! Kodon's story is nearly at a close.

A lot of work has gone into the game in since my last post, but we're deep into SPOILER territory, so all you get is a single out-of-context screenshot.

I'm not sorry.

(So close to release! AAAH!)
