V1.8 Boomerang Checkpoints
Hey everyone!
Intro
Got a small update for everyone! After much deliberation, I've decided to add checkpoints for each of the Boomerang levels. So hopefully that'll help more people get past them! I've also added some fog effects in the Bog levels, this is the first of many punishments that will be added to the Bog levels. As well as I roughly implemented a hot potato idea in the Bog at Max Punishment.
Boomerang Checkpoints:

Removing the Punishment Effect:
This month I am going to spend entirely working on the Hardmode Time Wizard. I'm looking to finish and release him by the end of this month. So I'll try my best.
As for the Bee Level and the Anime-Themed level, I'm going to put those on the backburner for now, I don't really like what I have for them yet, so I'm going to subject them to my Patrons soon and have them playtest it until we get something we all like.
What's Next?
THE TIME WIZARD
More Achievements (Sorry [F!]FreakaZ0id, next update!)
Then I'll go back to doing the other stuff I promised.
Previews
I've spent some time this last month playing with lighting effects, and some shaders:
This is one of the apartments for the Czech Translator I'm working on, but I made a nice basketball hoop animation, so I'm thinking about using that somewhere else as well:

V1.7 OLD RUST BOSS & NEW CHECKPOINTS FOR ALL LEVELS
Hey everyone!
Intro
First off I'd like to thank my playtesters. They helped me find a ton of bugs, and as a result I patched a bunch of broken stuff this update. Second off I'd like to thank my Patreon Supporters, I'm a bit behind on content for the poll currently, and I appreciate their support, and most of all, their patience. I also have been watching a bunch of playthrough videos on BilliBilli of the game, and have been reading the comments on those videos which has helped motivate me a ton as well as better understand what levels are the most entertaining, so thank you! And if you are reading this, thank you, for being interested in my strange little game.
Update V1.7
New Easymode Boss Fight: Old Rust
Slovak Language Support
Checkpoints for every Easymode Level (If you already had some unlocked, they will be automatically converted into the new system)
Checkpoints for every Journey to the West Level.
Checkpoints for all three Halloween Levels.
Added some turnips to the Cop and Infantry levels in the beginning of the game as well as I added the ability to pickup and throw them.
I've spent a lot of time working on these two commission levels. An awesome person reached out to me about two months ago, and commissioned me to produce levels mocking the Slovak Streamer Fifqo. Originally it was only going to be a single level, but halfway through working on Old Rust, Fifqo got into a scooter accident, and broke a bunch of his ribs. So naturally, I had to mock that. So now we have the Scooter level, as well as the originally commissioned Old Rust Boss fight!
I also decided to make my game a bit less frustrating and added checkpoints for all the levels in the game.
I've also spent a bunch of time working on Patreon content as well, so look forward to that content shortly, I will be uploading it as soon as I finish it.

Hardmode Time Wizard [TEASER]
Hey everyone!
I was originally going to update on June 30th, but I have a few very ambitious ideas, and I'd like to see them through. I apologize for the wait. Thank you everyone for your continued support.
Here are some previews:
V1.B Bog Levels + Oracle Slayer + More Easymode Checkpoints
Hey Everyone!
I'm releasing this small update a bit early. I have more stuff I want to add to the bog levels, but I also wanted to give you guys something to play, so I released it ahead of time. After taking into consideration a recent review, I decided to add a checkpoint right before the Boomerang levels. If you already have the Easymode Achievement, the new Bog Level will be accessible in the Easymode Level Select. I also added a character/enemy when you skip the Infinite Bridge joke by immediately going left (The Oracle Slayer). -Cody
Other News
I'm upgrading my computer, so hopefully that should speed up the compiling and content creation for the game!
V1.B Notes
+Added Bog Levels (Work in Progress) +Added Oracle Slayer +Added a couple more Easymode Checkpoints

Month of June Vote Results My Patrons ended up in a 4-way tie, so for the month of June, I'll be focusing on: more Halloween Levels, more Journey to the West Levels, Hardmode Timewizard, and Wearable Hats.
