KatFS 0.1.3b and Feedback Fest Jam Entry
Hello everyone! I got a smaller update for the KatFS pre-alpha, and a more substantial news update. First, on to what's new in version 0.1.3b:
An issue that many players were having with the demo was figuring out the first set of puzzles with the heat-activated crystals. I believe that the way these were set up was creating the wrong expectations in the players' heads, leading to them often getting stuck at the second checkpoint. Thus, a few changes were made to the first three iterations of the puzzle which should hopefully be more effective at teaching players how to operate these devices.
The pressure plate puzzles also got a minor facelift. Scratch marks should hopefully suggest which objects should be moved and where.
Finally, some of the puzzles will also trigger a hint pop-up if they're not solved after enough time. These icons should provide just enough information to give you that eureka moment in how to solve the puzzle, without outright spoiling them. Let me know how they fare, as the timing and the icons can always be adjusted from feedback, and new hints could be added where needed.
And speaking of "feedback"... That's where the news update comes in! The Kalia and the Fire Staff pre-alpha demo has been submitted to the Feedback Fest Jam! It's exciting to see my project alongside so many other cool ones, and hopefully this should provide me with plenty of feedback for future updates!
This is it for today. Keep these fires burning!
