One of the problems with 0.0.5 was the difficulty. There were tutorial levels, but they ramped up pretty quickly. 0.1.0 has 12 new tutorial levels that hopefully will even out the learning curve. There are only 2 normal levels for now, but more will be added in future releases.
The audio was removed since i felt like it was mostly an afterthought. Once i get a good audio library and some legitimate sounds/music, i'll put it back in.
The old levels would be too much work to port over, so i decided to start fresh with a new art pipeline. All the levels were created with blender and export to irrlicht, thanks to irrb.
Here is the changelog:

ReplyDelete.... What happened to all those virtually impossible levels?
I could use some more levels
Thanks for your work.
Thanks. The level format changed significantly so i would have to remake all the old levels.
ReplyDeleteIn 0.1.0, i wanted to start out with fresh levels to go with the new look of the game. I'll definitely reuse some of the old ideas in the newer levels though.
