Update 1.2.0 - Third Face


1_2_0_controlsscreen.png

This update overhauls the controls for PC players and the soon to come Nintendo Switch players. The most notable change is the addition of a "third face".

Controls

  • Added the option of "3 faces". This allocates the functions of some powerups to an additional face button (C/magic).

  • The statue powerup can now be activated with C/magic or B/toss, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.

  • The freeze powerup is now activated by C/magic, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.

  • The static powerup is now activated by C/magic, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.

  • When "3 faces" is toggled OFF, the static powerup is now deactivated by A/jump.

  • The rose powerup can now be activated with C/magic or down, if "3 faces" is toggled ON.

  • The controls menu now uses a controller diagram, showing the ideal location of the inputs being mapped.

  • The controls menu now uses a model Belle avatar, showing the function of the inputs being mapped when applicable.

  • Weapon descriptions (seen on the pause menu) have been slightly changed to match the terminology used on the controls menu.

  • To match the pause menu, the weapon icons on the bottom-right of the screen now use button symbols (A, B, and C), if a gamepad is plugged in.

Misc.

  • The game can now be paused while Belle is controlling a statue or inside of an electric current.

  • Fixed a bug  where a puff of smoke would appear when exiting the statistics room in the Backstage.

  • Slightly adjusted the placements of some tiles in Act 8.

Please notify me if you have any troubles with your gamepad of choice! Thank you!
