Version 0.5 - The Continuation


After being forgotten for over a year, the next update is finally upon us. This update adds backgrounds, changes to UI, as well as many QOL improvements and bug fixes. The level editor received a lot of love too, and is in a significantly more functional state. A few smaller updates in the near future will further improve the level editor—removing some of the unused buttons and adding a much more intuitive system to save and load levels.


New Backgrounds

The new backgrounds add a lot of atmosphere and personality to the game, and is much better compared to the old, solid gray backgrounds of before. The main menu also received a refresh, take a look!
