New Update (0.1.2) for ChronoVenture

This might be the last update for the demo as I'll be working on the next major build.

Check the article for the Update Notes.


ChronoVenture 0.1.2 Update Notes

Camera Panning
Screen crunch is a common criticism that this game received so camera panning has been implemented as a (default) option whenever the player moves.

Slowed Down Acceleration
The player's acceleration has been halved so they won't run too fast so quickly.

Reduced Knockback
The player's knockback has been decreased to be less harsh whenever they take damage.

Revised Enemy Placement
Some enemy placements have been changed or removed to make the game less difficult.

Doubled Yarnbomb Capacity
The player can now carry and start off with 20 Yarnbombs instead of 10.

Switch Weapon Notification
If the player hasn't switched weapons and they ran out of Yarnbombs, a text will appear above the ammo count to tell the player to switch weapons. The text will disappear once the player presses the "weapon switch" button.
Please read the "README.txt" or check the keybindings on the Controls Menu if you don't know which key/button opens up the weapon select menu.

I haven't posted the update notes for the previous version on Game Jolt so if you're wondering what additions and changes I made since the very first version of the game, here it is:

ChronoVenture 0.1.1 Update Notes

Saving Settings
The game now saves your settings so you don't have to return to the Settings Menu every time you boot up the game. (Except for fullscreen currently.)

Saving Scorings
The game now saves your score if it's higher than the previous high score which is now displayed on the Title Screen.

Rebindable Keys
Selecting the Controls in the Settings Menu now takes you to the Controls menu where you can rebind keyboard keys and toggle extra keys for melee and weapon select menu.

Raining Particles
Instances of block particles and insectoid giblets will no longer be removed when out of the player's view. This change is noticeable if you destroy insectoids or blocks close to the top side of the screen.

Turn Down The Music
The Music setting in the Settings Menu is no longer binary. You can now change the volume by pressing left or right when it's highlighted.

Claws Are Not Swords
Some sprites have been updated including the slash effect of Lizzy's melee attack which should look more like a claw swipe than a sword swipe now.

Insecticider Reignited
The issue where the Insecticider stops squirting flames when holding down in the air or having boosted speed has now been fixed.

Heya there! I really wanted to show you all a little gameplay preview of the first boss fight i'm currently working on i hope you like it ^^

I was bored, so... ManutKat.

What you all think

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)
