Menus & Key-binding Update Released


A new update is out. :D
This is more infrastructural stuff than gameplay stuff, but there are some neat additions none the less.

Among other things, this update adds in a menu system, and key rebinding functionality.

The new key binding system allows you to bind multiple keys to the same command, so you can experiment with different control layouts.

The new help text system described in an earlier post has also been incorporated into this update.

I’ll have a more detailed list of changes in a change log post, which I’ll try to put up in the near future.

I was going to put up the Ascii art April Fools banner, and then realized I needed to make a Kickstarter version of it. Happy April Fools, all. :) Kickstarter: http://bit.ly/DownWard-Kickstarter

Adorned in her appropriately cubey attire, Gable brandishes a legendary blade.

I finally get to post this for April Fools! :D

Gable wings her way over some soft clouds. :)

(She's the main character of a pixel game I'm working on. She has more pixels in this picture.)

A backer from my prior Kickstarter suggested a pre-launch countdown + link, & they made this gif for me, because they're super nice. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fisholith/down-ward-game-ow…

They made 3 of them actually. :)
