Lessons Learned (v3.0.1)


Hello, players! Here's the update I promised a month ago. Thanks for your patience.

Today, I've backported some more of the things I've learned while developing the sequel, Carnage in Space: Crucible. Additionally, I've tweaked some of the level design in 3 levels that have given people grief in the past.

Enjoy!

- [GAMEPLAY] You can now move left and right while performing a jump attack
- [GAMEPLAY]Reduced the sensitivity of the joystick
- [GAMEPLAY] Money drops are worth slightly more
- [LEVEL] Changed some areas in LVL1 to make it clearer where you need to go
- [LEVEL] The submarines in LVL3 behave in a more consistent manner, making it more clear how to progress
- [LEVEL] The bombs in LVL4 may now be defused in any order
- [AUDIO] Replaced the royalty-free music track from Endless Space battle with the OST track from LVL8
- [STORY] Some story text has been rewritten
- [MENU] Replaced button numbers with Xbox button icons in the Settings menu

In case you missed it - SEQUEL BETA TESTING!

Carnage in Space: Crucible is coming Soon*!

If you'd like to try it early and help me perfect it, read below to join the beta test and score a free copy!

Yesterday I implemented a new build method for the game that reduces the download size by 75%! Wow!

But that's not particularly exciting to look at, so enjoy this new shop artwork for the Sawblade Boomering as well.

Dude, why are you red? It's not a good look on you!

Egads! MORE of them? How many robot lizards does one game even need?!

ALL DEVELOPMENT on the 2.0 release is NOW DONE!

YES!

All that's left now is the promo art and the trailer, then you'll be getting your hands on it very soon.

Aaaaand, we're back! Development on phase 3 (the final phase!) has begun, with Kodon's last weapon: The Beam Flail!

This is a clumsy but powerful weapon. It has a very long reach and hits hard, but it's not fast. Use it on enemies too close for your gun!

It's finally here! Enjoy the story of Crucible again from a new perspective - that of the relentless mechanized alien warrior Tuhrahkkkii!

This update comes with a fully-developed 2nd playable character, and LOADS MORE!

On today's episode of Pixel Art Fundamentals: That is Not What the Sun Looks Like!

Yeah, I'm not sure what I was thinking when I shaded the old version. The new one looks more like an actual light source.

UNLEASH THE BEAST.

This is Tuhrahkkkii's final alternate weapon, the Beam Claws. These emphasize quick burst damage and hit-and-run tactics. They also pair nicely with the Grappling Hook, but I was too busy kicking fools here to show that off.

And here's the shop animation for last week's new flail weapon.

Its jump attack hits a wide area, making it perfect for swatting flying enemies!
