Heya everyone, I have a large art update for you here! There is more to be done/being done but, as soo much of it is completed, I have released the major art update now. There is a new colour palette that has been created for the game and most of the sprites characters/towers/enemies have been re-drawn! There is more to be added but, what do you all think of this new art? Let me know!
I will be modifying the Steam page and the Fandom.Wiki pages to include the new art at a later date as well. I want to try and complete the update within the game for yourselves first, then work on that afterwards :)
Would love to hear any feedback you may have.
Enjoy!

0.5.4
Balance patch
You can now not face Flying Saucers on the endless level versions of levels that did not have flying saucers.
Bug Fixes
Fixed a bug where you couldn't see how many apples you had whilst in the shop.
UI Update
Added your current apples to the main menu screen, making it easier to see how many apples you have.
0.5.3
Small update to the in-game user interface and the look of the main menu. Everything should look clearer and be easier to see now.

0.5.2
This is just a minor update to fix some bugs with the screen resolutions etc.
Version 0.5.1
Heya everyone, another major update is here!
Characters
To start with, there is a new look coming to Defend from Candyland! There are a bunch of characters coming in and they will now show you around Eden and help you out. The new home screen now looks like this:
We have new characters, joining the old ones, to take you to different places. Along with this, we have created a Fandom.Wiki page here: Defend from Candyland! which currently has more details about the characters, more will be added to it soon!
We have a new tower joining the fray and that is, the Cattail sniper!
This tower can hit all enemies, has a lot of power and has he largest range of any tower so far! This should certainly help against all enemies!
The Anti-Air Carrot Field also has an upgrade, the upgrade from Miss Applebee's shop now increases their fire power by 5 instead of 1. Take down those Flying Saucers!
Endless Mode
Endless Mode has had another update
The Endless Mode is now configurable, so, you can choose where you want the Spawning Jellies/Destination Trees to be! If however you leave it blank, Seargent Switch will randomly assign you between 1 & 3 of the Jellies/Trees.
Speaking of Endless Mode, there is now an Endless Mode of each level in the game to unlock! You need to have gotten 3 Apples on the level, this will then allow you to compete in an Endless Version of that level for another high score and more apples! This change also brings a new look to the level select!
Music
Arman Mkhitarian has created another track for Defend from Candyland! to replace the current battle music. The old battle music is still in the game, however, it will only play when your health is in the red!
Tips
With the new characters, we now have Doctor Dexters Tips! If you pause the game, Doctor Dexter will pop up and give you a random tip about the game or its characters!
Settings
In the settings menu, the ability to manually save has now been added, along with, the ability to change your cursor!
So, with that, get out there and Defend from Candyland!
