Patch 4

Sorry there hasn't been much over the past month. I'm currently looking for a job, so I haven't focused on the game as much. Regardless, here's a patch with a host of fixes and some new content.

-A new enemy type, the assassins, have been added to the game. They can only be found in the dev testing level. They're a little buggy and lack a few sound effects, but they are pretty much complete. 

-A new enemy variant has been added, the giant slime. Like the big caster, these don't count as part of the 20 main enemies and are simply a variant. When hit, they burst into a number of regular sized slimes. One has been added to the demo level.

-Falling off the stage no longer kills you, instead deducting a heart and teleporting you back to the last checkpoint, without respawning any enemies like regular death does.

-The damage on the crossbow alt-fire has been buffed, increasing its effectiveness beyond being just a hitstunning tool.

-Two more checkpoints have been added to the stage.

-Minor changes all across the stage to make for smoother play, including changes to the wallkick section on the town island.

-The slime dealer has a new product. For 50 coins, you can buy a hint that gives you information about secrets in the level, as well as how to progress.

-Various minor bug fixes

Hopefully these all make the playing experience smoother!

On another note, if any of you have experience with game dev, music, art, or what have you, and would be interested in working on the game, let me know. Shoot me a DM on twitter or discord, and we can talk about it. 

Until next time :)
