  Came across some issues when talking to the person relocalizing the game to French: -Fixed the way rows are added in dialogue boxes -Increased the maximum length of dialogue boxes for NPCs -Fixed a bug where two NPCs near each other wouldn't overwrite the text, running across two NPCs near each other will change the text accordingly as you touch them The French localization will come out sooner rather than later, thank you for your patience.

  Insect Adventure version 1.5 is here!

  Hey y'all, I started working on this update with the attempt to make the game focus more on it's good aspects and make the bad aspects less bad. That was one and a half years ago, there was so much that had to be changed, from the way enemies work to the cutscenes, and those changes needed other changes to make them work together, and they needed extra graphics, and so on and on... Needless to say, this is Insect Adventure in a new form. It's faster, even more freeform, and possibly most controversially, I leaned into the combat being button mashy, but added elements to increase tension and strategy. The story of the game is different too. Largely the same events happen, but with more involvement between the few characters and made more in line with the ideas I've had of a sequel. I don't think I'm the best writer in the world, but the idea is to add more coherence and momentum to the actions, whereas the original was literally made up as it went along. In terms of difficulty, I think the game has been made easier across the board, but less irritating. Hard and Nightmare difficulties will still give people who master the game's new mechanics a run for their money if that's a concern, but being fluid and fun to speed through was always the bigger priority. Lastly, I still want to continue to make games, but I'm going to learn a new engine to do so. I have a couple ideas for what I could do in the future, and I'm sure someone will find bugs that I'll hotfix, but further developing this game will no longer be a big priority. Thank you all for your support, if you enjoy the game please let other metroidvania fans know, this was a passion project from the very first sketch of Bugsy I made when I was 10. List of documented changes: -New combat, charge into enemies and beat them with a flurry rush, but some need to be stunned first -Start off with uppercut, hammer pogo, and limited a wall run ability -Dodge roll replaced with parry, parrying stuns most enemies and deflects...

  Looking for Spanish Translators

  Things are winding down as I make the last few tweaks left for the update, but I got a problem. I'm no longer able to get a hold of the person who made the Latin Spanish translation of the game's script. Very large chunks of the game's text have been replaced and rewritten, and I don't want people who were able to play the game in Spanish suddenly lose the ability to read it in their language. So I'm reaching out to you guys from this community to ask if anyone would be willing to help me out with this translation. If you are interested, send a direct message to Mayo1929 on discord offering to help. Alternatively, leave a message on the game's official discord server: https://discord.gg/vV7mx85 Here is what I am willing to offer: -Your name in the game's credits -The ability to put your work on this game into a resume -A negotiable amount of money sent through paypal for your troubles If you are interested in translating the game into a different language besides Spanish, we can discuss that as well. I have someone working on it in French right now. All in all, thanks.
