Heya, Folks! It's been a while, huh?

So first of all, MERRY CHRISTMAS! and thank you for your patience and support. I've brought you our first devlog here, which includes the new version's details and the near future plans! Check it out :

Bug Fixes, Optimization - DEVLOG #1

--------------------------

V1.1.0 (PC Version)

What changed?

--------------------------

- Fixed/Changed :

----------------

* Settings Menu

> Fixed Settings Syncronizing.

> Fixed Audio Scroll being inaccurate, added percentage display.

> Fixed UI buttons' hitbox out of proper area.

> UI Colors changed to make it easier to distinct the different functions of the buttons.

----------------

* Game Events

> Sometimes MX doesn't transform into second form in time at the intro.

> Sometimes when Lucas escapes, instead of going to the Scores Screen, the game gets restarted.

> Sometimes unable to kill Lucas in 3rd form.

> Can't skip the intro, after finishing the game or quitting. For this, the intro is skippable at all times + info text is hidable.

> Pausing after the player have caught Lucas causes the game to completely freeze.

> Lucas stuck on MX's head after stomping him.

> Made it easier to catch Lucas in 3rd form.

----------------

* Visuals

> Modified "Retro Look" Effect

----------------

- Added :

> Game Over Messages (Lucas Escape, Death)

> Warning before super jump, so it's more obvious what to do.

> Different credits in Main Menu.

> New tips in Loading Screen.

----------------

- Game Optimization:

* PC

> Static objects have been set to static, making them using up less CPU.

> Components, Non-Components cached

> Cleaned up Game Scripts.

----------------

* Mobile Version

Unfortunately I couldn't get the mobile version to be optimized as much as to have the game run on an at least solid 30 fps on low-end devices, along with the quality not getting worse. The current Game Project itself right now is a mess, so I'm gonna label the Mobile Version 'UNSTABLE' for now.

--------------------------

What's next? (V2.0.0)

--------------------------

In the next up-coming Major Update is gonna be the Story Mode Overhaul.

This version will include stuff like :

Complete Story Mode Rework,
Lucas AI Rework
Shop section in Main Menu (with purchasable goods, obviously),
Better Game Optimization,
and so much more...

Along with the update, Mobile version is intended to be well optimized enough, so that it will be possible to play it on both high and low-end devices without issues.

I cannot estimate a time when it will be released, but there's one thing I can tell you, folks. It will be worth the wait.

If you'd like to see more details about the next update, it's available in our Discord Server!
