Early Access 1.2.9 is out

Version 1.2.9 is now available to play.

The full release is only three chapters away from now! Two of them are partially done and will include the final boss.

I don't think I'm going to change much about the game from this point on, so all the trophies you can currently unlock in-game are now visible here on Game Jolt! Have fun.

There's some more to come in release 1.0, but you can get about 90% completion already if you're worthy.

  • Updated the layouts and visuals of many early levels

  • Updated some sprites for better visibility

  • Completely remade some old chapters (again, I know)

See you next time, GL HF

EDIT: just found out certain physics objects ignore collisions in this build, I will probably release a patch soon that fixes this

Next up

The guardians grow stronger...

(no sound because this was meant to be a gif)

A pretty big update is coming very soon (hopefully).

As a teaser, a new soundtrack is now available. Check out "Land"!

EDIT: forgot to mention I'm not going to use the tweaked torches sorry bros

Updated the gifs in the description so they show the game's current state, also more early levels are being reworked

Dropping an update soon

I changed the torch glow to actually respect the game's color palette, the effect turned out pretty intense though. Is this better?

Maybe this should have been in the game from the beginning but those guys have telegraphed attacks now. Soon I'm going to release another patch, focused mainly on the early game.

Ohh

Something

Only one thing left to do...

The upcoming update is going to include an extended tutorial level and a small rework to the first level after it. The plague doctor is still on that platform.
