I'm working on an update for It's a Cube! I've implmemented Game Jolt's API and added 4 trophies and score saving.

I added the leaf shield to the beetle since the last time I posted to Game Jolt! I've also added a detail where it deteriorates over time as you strike it with bullets which I think is a nice touch! Yes, it's a separate sprite from the beetle himself lol.

I'm working on adding in-game achievements for It's a Cube that correspond to the Game Jolt trophies. I also plan to make versions of the in-game art for these to use as trophy icons for the game's page on Game Jolt eventually.

I've been working on the sprite for the beetle shell power-up drop! I'm thinking when you collect this one, it will kind of poof away similarly to the enemies when they're defeated and play an "equip" sound.

Okay, so I've gotten the functionality for the beetle shell render over the player working! (using the first 3 frames from the beetle shell collect animation as placeholder sprites, these ARE NOT the final sprites)

I'm working on adding full controller support to It's a Cube! I'm also taking the time to update the art for the in-game tutorial page, I'm planning to add a tab for controller too. In the meantime, how does the keyboard tutorial look?

FIRST ACTUAL EDIT USING DAVINCI RESOLVE!!! Also, FINALLY, here's that clip of the beetle's idle animation I promised a while ago.

I updated the algorithm that handles the timer gradually decreasing as the game progresses! Before, it would decrease by 1 second when the player scored certain amounts, but now it gradually decreases according to a multiplier each round.

The beetle shell is now fully VISUALLY implemented! Next thing on my list is a unique sound for Hensen equipping it.

I added push notifications that appear when you reach a new milestone! These milestones correspond to the Game Jolt trophies for It's a Cube.
