Coop! Now you can play the single player mode, but instead of the friend being controlled by the computer, you can play it in two.
Hone your communication skills and explore together the procedurally generated levels.
Coordinate your attacks and take down the bosses together.
Carry your friend around but ask their permission or you’ll come across as bossy!
Go shopping to the bazaar together, but remember you have one purse to share!
Open the chest while the other player protects you from peril.
Try it out with some family member! Download the demo now.
Landmine. You can now place a landmine to unsuspecting creatures or your closest friends in multiplayer, and watch them fly off screen! You can find this useful knickknack in crates and the shop.
Added in-game Keys Help. Whenever you are near something, or have a selected item in the inventory, you will see the keys and their respective action. They are also visible in the shop so you can immediately know the item that you can buy rather than having to read the merchant’s description :). Btw, you can toggle this off from settings. You can also adjust transparency and location (top or bottom).
Directional throwing. You can now press up or down while throwing to give it a higher/lower angle.
Improvement for VS Options to select more items at one go. So now you can select all the items when playing multiplayer. You love explosions? Why don’t you start with 10 explosives and landmines?
Fixed
Fixed issue with entering the name for the first time in Send Feedback. The first letter was overwritten by the second one.
Fix for when there was a space at the end of a multiline (Send Feedback), and would have the cursor not following the text properly (fastforwarded by a word)
Fix for enemies not playing a hit sound when hit by a boomerang
Should not be able to drop rope while vertical speed is not 0
Menu ui elements (like toggles and bars) horizontal offset is now calculated dynamically, so this should solve for other languages which might be overriding the option description.
Offsets for Felicie carrying objects while swimming
Fixed invincibility trail while swimming
Fix for starting with increase hearts in Multiplayer Options (it was creating it as a pickup, causing a crash if you died)
Fix for crash in boss level, when you die and go again to boss level it tries to destroy the stones causing a crash. As reported on gamejolt by Recycled Soul
Giorgio should always be drawn behind Felicie
Fixes for picking up and dropping glitches
Fix for “I can’t leave Felicie behind”, when actually waiting for George. Same for when needing to open chest.
Fix for issue for Giorgio carrying Giorgio on ladder (was on his hat)
Fix for when throwing Felicie so it feels the same like when throwing Giorgio, even when Felicie->Felicie. Also fix when throwing Felicie with back to a wall, it wasn’t being adjusted
If friend dies, while you are with key, level is not generated with a key to pickup
Fix for level number not set properly when playing tutorial, causing issue when completing the infestation level
Fix for showing level 2 (instead of level 1) when going to mayan after killing boss
Fix for crash when pressing replay while fading out
Fixed reducing of credits after losing a life and winning on the next
Fix for picking up boomerang underwater
Fixed collisions between stones and boomerangs
Fix for Felicie swimming carrying offsets
Fix for when underwater, you can go in without the need of carrying friend (especially useful in multiplayer coop)
Fix for jittering Giorgio walk when following and reaches a wall
Fix for throwing crate in a corner teleports
Fix for getting hurt with boomerang when throwing it against wall close by
Fixed issue with urls not opened on windows/chrome
Fix for mayan pyramid in level selector shown with question mark when beating boss for the first time
Strip out any carriage returns from email, just in case as it causes problems on server side
Modified
Added a light to boomerang. Makes it easier to follow.
When falling fast friend should show she’s frightened
When friend dies, throwing of items should not be so powerful
Go to next line when pressing enter or tab (especially useful in feedback form)
Abandoned Ideas
Make friend run when you whistle. It wasn’t feeling right. Plus when Felicie would run to a whistle, then it would not land near you.
Added friend confirming whistle sound (okay), with a bit more delay before following.
Also to make a whistle know you need to press Action+Jump key together. It was getting annoying to do a whistle instead of picking up or throwing/pickup, especially in multiplayer.
Dynamic splitting of screen of Coop. I had implemented a shared screen for coop, which merges into one when they are close by. It was working very smoothly when players move only horizontally. But it was disorienting when they moved apart vertically and a split of the screen is done. I was thinking of doing a horizontal split of the screen (rather than vertical), but then you would have very little vertical space to play in. So I opted for the shared screen, where the camera centers on average position of the two players. If one player decides to go far away from the other player, then no one would be visible on camera. This enforces the idea of communication and having to work together.
