Hello everyone,

First of all from the bottom of my heart I would like to thank everyone who has purchased and supported us with Teddy Terror.
Without you as the community Teddy Terror would have never come this far.
Thank you.

As you have noticed Teddy Terror has not been updated for several months now and It's kind of unfortunate to announce that we are currently on hold with the development of the game due to the lack of funds.

Until now I have self funded the development and marketing of Teddy Terror and sadly our funds and income are not sufficient enough to work fulltime on the development of the game.

That being said, I am looking for ways to fund the development of Teddy Terror and I do not intend to stop the development.

Teddy Terror will eventually be released, that is my goal and passion, it will only take a bit longer than anticipated.

I hope you can bear with me and still be able to support us during our development.

I have many ideas for the game that have yet to be realized.
New game modes, Rewards, Boss mechanics etc.

Thank you for taking the time and effort in supporting us.
We hope to release the next update soon.

Kind regards,

Gianni Knight
CEO Rage Monster Games

Summary:

• Improved Graphics
  
• Lower starting difficulty
  
• New Areas
  
• Boss galore!
  
• New Toys
  
• New Monsters
  

Prologue:
"First of all I personally want to thank everyone for their support and patience in this update.
I have done my best to improve and create a great gaming experience and will continue doing so.
The development of this update has been with ups and lows as a solo artist/programmer therefore I really hope you enjoy this patch and I wish you a happy gaming experience! Thank you!" - Gianni Knight

Improved Graphics:

• Every zone has been decorated with props, objects and shiny stuff!
  
  Characters:
  
• We pushed the visibility of the characters with a black outline. Now you cannot lose sight of your character in the madness!
  

Hallow's Terror:

Lower starting difficulty:

• I have lowered the difficulty of the first boss encounter to give players a better start throughout a single run.
  
• Also the previous Easy Mode has been replaced with the 'Normal' tag, because that reflects the difficulty in this game a bit more.

New Areas:

• Relic Wastes and Hallow's Grave
  
• Players should now start in either Dark Woods or Relic Wastes.
  These are the two starting areas with each their own Easy first Boss encounter.
  
  
• The other new area is Hallow's Grave, where the demon of Halloween resides.
  "Hungry for your soul, Hallow was once a man who has been reincarnated into the grave he used to rest in. Now he haunts the dreams of children in search of a young host to carry on his legacy."

Boss galore!:

• To highten the anxiety before encountering a boss, I have added a special boss entrance room where players have a chance to take a short break before facing off their biggest fears.
  These rooms are equipped with breakable boxes (which can contain goodies) and once you enter the Terrorgate you will be taken to a random horrifying Boss.

• Bombeye, Bananuts and Hallow.

• Let your remote-controlled car loose, place your rubber ducky, take flight with your red balloon and face demons on the frontline together with your trusty green soldier!

• Take cover! I have added a total of 17 new monsters to the areas! Each categorized in their own difficulty range!

Challenge Mode delayed:
Unfortunately we ran into issues with the upcoming Challenge Mode, so this mode will be released in a future update. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey everyone!

We are working hard on our next big update of Teddy Terror that you surely don't want to miss!

The patch is set to launch in the end of September and will be bigger than any of the previous updates!

The reason we are doing a big update is because we want people to be able to keep on exploring the game to a greater extent rather than small chunks of additions.

So be prepared for the upcoming big patch 1.05!

We will introduce some major features like:

- Challenge Mode
- More epic Boss battles
- Secret Levels

And much more that we won't reveal yet!

We are focusing on adding more content that will increase the playing time and more unlockable content!

Thank you all who have purchased the game, because of you we keep on striving to improve the game!

Thank you for the support!

Teddy Terror update 1.04b: Play your Favourite character! + Fixes

Characters:

• We feel that since we are in Early Access we want to significally lower the requirements of unlocking Ed Jr., Nikki and D.Kid.
  Now players can access these characters faster while we are in Early access.(Note that in the final version of the game these requirements will be much higher than during Early Access).
  
  
• Upon death the correct chosen character should now be displayed instead of Nikki, when unlocked.
  

Time:

• WIP: We are aware of the issue that the run time displayed in the end screen was incorrect and did not reflect on the actual time played that run. We have made some changes in the script, but as for now we are not sure if the issue still persists and we are trying to find a solution to the problem.
  We really apologize for any inconvenience it may cause.
  
  
• Fixed the issue of not gaining experience when defeating Terror Ted and completing the game.
  Now upon completion you should be able to level up, but not spend points yet.
  

Traps:

• Per request I added a texture to the poison trap in Blood Chambers.

New Features: EXTRA CHARACTERS
• We added 3 new playable characters to the game which can be unlocked for simply collecting candy, killing bosses or collecting hearts. These characters are: Ed Jr. , Nikki and Delirious Kid(D.Kid) .
Characters are currently still in development, they are playable and unlockable but they will undergo several changes throughout future updates.
Characters do NOT have bonusses or alternative stats at the moment, this will be added in a future update.

Player:
• We added voice-over and short dialogues for the character that will be played during several occasions and situations.

Zones:
• We want to improve the graphics on every zone throughout the next few weeks. We started with improving the graphics in the Dark Woods. We really want the zones to stand out from each other. The Dark Woods should feel a bit more like a forest now.

Settings:
• In the options Menu you can now adjust the main Volume of the game
• When you click off-screen with the mouse the pause menu will automatically pop up. We hope this prevents players from dieing when they accidently click off screen.
• Tutorial mode now always shows the intro story text of the game.
• The game starts in fullscreen mode, but can be easily changed to Windowed mode(1280 x 720) in the options( this for a more suitable way to record footage of the game).

Toys:
• Lego bricks now cause a lot more hellish pain to monsters with a longer sustain rate.
• Marble toy has been buffed and gained more charges with a reduced cooldown.

Traps:
• Changed the appearance of the spinning trap in the Dark Woods level.
• Added one additional activated trap in the normal stages. We hope this will make the experience less stressful.
• -Added a Scythe trap.

Monsters:
• Monsters now have a set hp which allows them to get the correct amount of damage in every difficulty mode. This should give a smoother monster death and should give the player more control during harder difficulty modes.
• Bombs dropped from monsters also deals damage to other monsters

NEW: EXTRA CHARACTERS

Update notes:

- We have lowered the difficulty of Easy And Normal slightly.
Players should now be able to clear Easy difficulty at a much faster pace than before.
- We have added a Hard Mode for players wanting more challenge in the game.
- In Hard mode players can expect longer Boss battles where speed and precision are very important.

Fixes:

-The turtle companion was too powerful during bosses and has been altered.
Now toys and companions have no effect on Bosses, but are still very useful against normal enemies.

-Some of the graphics were too pixelated and has been retouched to have a more smooth transition.
