Control

• Player now fires a minimum 3-shot burst with each press of the fire button. This helps players who like to tap the fire button rather than hold. Without it, these players were at a disadvantage as they could not fire fast enough to defeat the enemy.

Player

• If the player does not fire for a short time (1/5 of a second), her next shot will have double damage. This rewards being patient and timing her shot to when the enemy is vulnerable.

UI

• Add a feed of damaged and defeated enemies on the right of the horizontal HUD.
• Give buttons rounded corners.
• Rearrange horizontal HUD to fit on 4:3 screens (such as CRTs).
• To restart or quit in the pause menu, hold the button for 2 seconds, then release.
• Don’t open control settings on first launch. This was confusing to some testers.

Enemies

• Zombies can now be destroyed while rising from the ground.

Stages

• Tutorial
  • Fixed a rare softlock. Blue hearts could get thrown offscreen, leaving the player unable to throw a bomb when they were supposed to.
• Stage 1: Demon Realm
  • Fixed: if a monstergirl escaped from a swordsman too early, the swordsman would chase the player when they should have fled.
• Stage 3: Chapel
  • Fixed some statues partially hidden behind trees.
• Stage 4: Underground
  • Fixed the boss sometimes getting stuck behind the right lava pillar after summoning them.
• Stage 6: Capital
  • Fixed: fires could be put out prematurely in the molotov cocktail fight.
  • Darken water for better bullet visibility.
  • Revise boat section for pacing.
  • Increase electric mage’s base fire rate.
• Inebriator
  • Fixed crash when player fired.
  • The player shot and powerup systems are now identical to the main game except for the drunken sway.

Graphics

• Make arrow a bit longer and heavy militia bullet a bit shorter.
• New monstergirl sprites: wurm and hornet.

What’s next

• A new playable character is coming. Snow the siren will become available if the player can free her from her watery prison in stage 6. She will have
  • A wide sonic wave that continues through enemies and cover. (see above)
  • A shout that continuously damages all enemies around her and throws their bullets back at them.
• Stage 6 boss is still a bit underwhelming and needs revision.
