A player requested a new feature (to be able to set V-Sync or max framerate), so I decided I would try to include some other changes while I was at it! :-)
Added both frame rate max setting and V-Sync settings in options menu. These can only be set while you are in the main menu. Press the "Show Advanced Settings" button to access them. V-Sync is now on by default;
Fixed glitch with volume settings where master volume was incorrectly applied to sub-volumes;
Added updated font that includes lower case;
Redesigned menus (made buttons and fonts smaller and other things);
Fixed glitch with certain songs restarting when volume turned off;
A few behind the scenes code updates/revisions;
Thank you to the player for their kind request! Thanks to all players for your support.
Patch 1.3.1 has finally arrived!
Notes:
Thanks to some recent feedback (and a nice and detailed e-mail from a player), I've got a new update for the game! A big thank you to everyone who has played the game!
1.3.1B addition (thanks to a request in discussion board): Added option to enable/disable 'short-jumping' in controls menu. When enabled, short-jumping allows you to control jump height by how long you hold the jump button. Barely tapping it will give you a small hop, and holding will make you jump higher. (This also currently only affects the regular player, morphing sphere and the froggy transformations.)
Fixed gamepad glitch where crouching and rapidly pressing up and jump+attack would allow for an upwards whip attack while jumping.
Changed vehicle hint text to "press activate button" so that gamepad users won't see a silly semi-colon! :P
Added extra platform on 1.4 in the hive so getting the first rocket ammo pickup will be less annoying.
Fixed glitch where sometimes falling flying enemies would get stuck and not disappear.
On Stage 5.4, I made it to where the camera in the first water area will follow the player if you fall all the way down the first pit.
For stage 6.4, I enhanced the Leaf Copter code so that rare glitches with being unable to fly do not occur. Also added a hint on how to operate the Leaf Copter.
Fixed glitch where pausing game while crouching and releasing crouch during pause leaves you still crouched upon unpausing.
Now the non-instant kill ground spikes will properly launch the player into the air each time.
Made pause menu black background transparent so you can see the player's position when the first pause menu is shown.
Some miscellaneous behind the scenes code, for possible future content.
...And most importantly now you can pet the cats in Stage 7.3! Added new achievement!
Thanks again for your support and interest. :-)
