  Dragon Hop 1.1.1

  Hello Everyone!In this update I wanted to add a few more ways to make it possible to finish the game faster, if you know where to look. This will likely be the last time where I make major changes of such nature, as I don't want to ruin / "patch out" anyone's speedrun strategy. This of course does not mean that I won't try to fix bugs or add some stuff later, it just means that I'm overall happy with the pace of the game and how fast you can progress if you use everything at your disposal.Apart from this, I've fixed a few bugs, tokens out of place, and slightly changed the post processing, making some zones less dark and contrast-y (thanks for the feedback DovinArt!).The full patch notes:owls are now a bit peckyadded a few more shortcutsadded more dragon fruitincreased the knockback effect on some obstaclesslightly adjusted post processing, for clearer visualsfixed the position on some unreachable tokensfixed some of the golems not working properlyfixed some cases where mounting/dismounting rhinos caused the dragon to get stuckfixed a few colliders and some parts of the mapIt's great to see your screenshots, feedback and discussions about the game, Despite how few people were interested in the game, it brings me joy to see some of you have so much fun with it! Thank you!

  Dragon Hop 1.1.0

  Hello Everyone!I've been working on a major patch these past few weeks, and it's finally time to share it with you. I've been monitoring your feedback, comments, reviews and livestreams to see what is most crucial to improve upon to make the game better as quickly as I can.Many of you have requested multiple saves to be able to play Exploration and Hardcore mode simultaneously, so now you can have up to 3 separate saves. Another frequent feedback was that the movement felt floaty & a bit weird. Now the movement while jumping should feel much better and you have more control in case you get knocked away by some obstacles (they are still pretty dangerous though). I've also added more ways to ascend the levels quicker these include new items or just plain old changes to the zones. You can probably speedrun the game under 2 hours, if you try hard enough ;)There are many more changes, these are just the highlights, if you're interested, you can find the full changelog below.Patch notes:expanded the save system, now you can have up to 3 saved games, allowing you to switch between different modes without losing your progressadded a slight air control to jumping, previously you could only control yourself once you started falling, but this change should give you a little more control overall while jumpingadded more air control in cases where the dragon is knocked away by obstaclesbackwards input while fast jumping will initially slow the jump slightly, instead of immediately turning the dragon around to prevent you from overcorrecting jumps by accidentmade entering and exiting gliding smootherfixed an issue where trying to toggle glide on the ground caused you to start gliding the next time you fell by itselfadded prompt for save points in hardcore mode reminding you that you can save & exit in these zonesadded UI description for coins and feathers to the pause menufixed colliders of cliffs in the Labyrinth Temple zone making them properly climbableadded more spots in the L...

  Hello everyone!This new patch aims to extend controller support, including the Steam Deck with proper glyphs that change dynamically based on input type.If you still encounter any errors or improper glyphs showing up, please send me a screenshot at dustriderstudios@gmail.com and any additional information (what controller do you use, which button is the correct one for the action, etc).

Thank you!Patch notes:added dynamically changing input glyphs for multiple controller typesfixed being unable to use a few features while using the controlleradded indicators for Brox's locations (your dragon trainer) to the pause menufixed the dragon becoming slower in certain situations until you jumpedTwitch Integration now no longer keeps trying to connect after a few unsuccessful tries (this was causing some lag spikes)other small adjustments & fixesHappy Hopping!
