Sanicball v0.6 released


Finally!

While this patch might not contain all that much new content, I still hope it was well worth the wait.

New features:

  • New stage: Dusty Desert – roughly based off the look and feel of the pod racing track in SW: Episode I.

  • Two new characters: Silvur the hegehegthing and Chermy Bee. They don’t have any unique stats for now, except for Chermy being small.

  • Integrated Game Jolt login, allowing players to keep a fixed identity and seperating them from anons (Anons now have a grayed out name). Highscore tables will be added in a future patch. This also allows me to add new donator titles very easily.

  • You can now zoom the camera with your scroll wheel

  • Added sand

Changes:

  • Chat colors are now only shown on names (and not on messages)

  • Balls are now spawned on level with the ground when the race starts – they also face forwards now.

  • Improved some of the models for rocks. Rocks are now roughly on level with n64-era graphics.

  • The player list can now be shown at any time with TAB.

Bugs fixed:

  • Fixed repeatedly respawning letting you ‘fly’

  • Fixed balls sometimes pushing each other away when spawning (The spawn positions were running on a flawed algorithm)

  • Fixed jumping not working on steep surfaces, along with the roll sound not playing. As a plus, you can now jump up completely vertical surfaces. Because why not.

  • Fixed the server browser hanging on “Refreshing…” when the master server was down.

New bugs:

  • Disabling super sanic doesn’t work properly and still allows players to select him

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Fan art for Foolish I'm feeling kinda better so I drew this

Runestones: from concept to in-game model🗿

Just a Pico sprite

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

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)
