Sequence Storm
Version 1.0.6e
- Free Play is now available by default and doesn't need to be unlocked.
- Adjusted tracks 0-L for better legibility. More track updates will come later.
- The scroll speed can be adjusted at the pause menu in free play score mode.
- Increased the amount of time that notes are visible at high speeds.
Display of unicode usernames on the leaderboards is still being worked on.
1.0.6c - fixed hold counts in leaderboard
Also, one note I had forgot to mention was a scoring balance change. Great judgements are now worth 80% of a note's value, down from 90%. So, scores will now generally be a bit lower than before.
1.0.6 - Leaderboards (beta)
Steam Leaderboards have been added in a beta state. This will be developed further after there are some scores in the system, and I get any feedback.
- Your scores and times in free-play will be uploaded to the leaderboards.
- Only new scores will be uploaded. It is not possible for the leaderboards to be retroactive.
- In free play, view leaderboards with F3 or the X button.
- Due to limits on the number of possible leaderboards, scores for all timing difficulties go into the same leaderboard. There is a 5% penalty for using moderate timing difficulty, and a 10% penalty for using loose timing. By default, you will only see scores of players using the same difficulty as you, but you can toggle this filter with Space or the Y button in order to see the entire leaderboard.
Here's a bit more explanation about timing difficulties. "Strict" is the intended difficulty, but it was found that many casual players struggled with this timing, so "Loose" was added to accommodate those players. Then, the difference between Strict and Loose was too great, so Moderate was added in-between as a default. It is intended that you must be using Strict timing in order to appear at the top of the leaderboard, but the filtering ability lets you see your place relative to other players using the same setting.
Leaderboards are coming soon!
1.0.5a
Version 1.0.5 patch notes!
Note that TWO builds were posted today. The first build did an OOPSIE. I'm terribly sorry!
Here are the 1.0.5 patch notes! But first, if you are enjoying SEQUENCE STORM, then please write a Steam review!
Version 1.0.5
- Added 5 new tracks, which are available in Free Play.
- Most tracks are unlocked in Free Play by default. The only locked tracks are the "boss" tracks.
- Medium difficulty is unlocked in Free Play by default. Hard and Extreme difficulty can be unlocked by completing missions.
- Widened the hold release window at all timing difficulties.
- Removed the "rig class" selection from free play. Many stats that depended on rig class now depend on selected difficulty.
- Best times and best rival beaten is no longer stored per rig class, which simplifies things for when leaderboards are added.
- Increased the scroll speed at lower difficulties in score mode.
- Fixed position of on-note particles for zig zag notes.
- Reworded the description of mission requirement for not touching the sides of the track.
- Changed how song previews fade out.
- Fixed an editor crash.
- Fixed some minor editor display bugs.
In FUTURE changes, expect to see STEAM LEADERBOARDS! And more music!
