  Happy new year! One minor balance change and a few bugfixes. If anything persists I'll look at it asap. -Slightly increased the size of the uppercut attack's hitbox. -Once again, made tweaks to fix a variety of issues involving floor/wall collisions with numerous enemies, as well as the player character. -Fixed a Survival Mode bug that only recently appeared. When two Chibearas were present, the "shockwave" sprite would sometimes appear on a Chibeara not currently using that attack. -Fixed bug where a frozen, defeated Skeleton would temporarily be transparent when an Esper appeared.

  Small update

  When the Steam port was in the works, I had plans for a new feature that ended up not working out. It isn't working out today, but I decided the song SypherAP already made for it shouldn't go to waste, so it's been added to the Demon World stage. Try to make it to the highest difficulty level, and give it a listen! This is an otherwise small update, just some things I've been meaning to work out for a while. A lot of new players found the name "Level" kind of confusing for the game's difficulty system, as that word is usually associated with an entirely different kind of feature, so I decided to rename it. I also worked on some bugs. Let me know if anything persists and I'll look at it quickly. I hope everyone's having a good holiday! Thanks for playing and have a safe rest of the year. SONG: A music track by SypherAP, which was made for a feature that ended up going unused, now plays when reaching level 13 in Demon World. FIXES: -When his back is to the wall, Ninja will go forward like he is supposed to when doing a jump kick. -Fixed bug where using a super would temporarily pause enemy spawns while a Gladiator is present in Heaven Mode. OTHER: -Rebranded the "difficulty level" system to "heat."

  Bugfix

  Small bugfix. -Possibly fixed bug where Jet glitches out if he is knocked out of his dive bomb attack and touches a wall. -Decreased the height of Jet's attack hitbox, making it safer to hit him with drop kicks. -Fixed bug where an alert arrow would appear on the left side when Golem's chair is past the right side of the screen. -Several minor sprite tweaks and fixes.

  Achievements and Chibeara bugfix

  Just a quick fix for two issues. Let me know if problems persist and I'll look back into it ASAP. FIXES: -Re-implemented a thing that went missing which enables Steam features. When the game opens, it should set Steam to unlock any missing achievements. -Hopefully fixed a bug where doing the pummel attack on Chibeara would cause you to somehow move upward. This would prevent you from reaching Chibeara with the pummel attack, softlocking the run. In the event I failed to fix this one, the pummel attack object now spawns on top of Chibeara, ensuring he takes damage. Also, if you happen to go outside the room's boundaries in the pummel state, you will respawn back into the room without taking damage, and exit the pummel state.

  August bugfix update

  I hope everyone has been well, I have an update featuring several bugfixes and a few tweaks to enemies, as well as some minor visual changes here and there that you may or may not notice. The main reason for the delay on this one is that I've been busy. But also, long story short, in order to continue updating the game, I had to switch Gamemaker Studio versions from 1.4 to 2. It's been a hassle because the one or two functions that had minor changes ended up affecting a -lot- of stuff relating to physics, so I'm hoping no new bugs have slipped under the radar. But I'm glad it's done, this update needed to come out for a while so I could address a whopping three different game crash issues. Now that the big Gamemaker jump is done, any future bugfix and rebalance updates should come out much faster. I don't think that switching Gamemaker versions is going to create issues for anybody, but let me know if anything really weird happens and I'll look into it. Thanks as always for playing, stay safe and I'll see you again whenever. FIXES: -Fixed a bug that usually resulted in a crash, where enemy reinforcements during a boss encounter would show up even though the game was paused. -Fixed a game crash relating to bosses being left alive for way too long. -Fixed a game crash where hitting a chibeara's gray energy ball would crash the game if the chibeara's HP was 0. -Fixed sounds rarely being played at the wrong volume for a split second (hopefully. Apologies if this bug still happens, it's been strangely hard to fix in the past.) -Fixed a player character bug where landing on the ground while walking would make you stop walking for one frame. -Fixed the enemy icons on the corners of the screen displaying the wrong quantity of outside-of-screen enemy if there was more than 10 of a non-ninja enemy on one side. -Fixed jets descending all the way to the ground when they spawn in the center of Technospace. -Fixed bug where jets would sometimes have the wrong sprite when doing th...
