UPDATE 4/8
Added 2 new types of projectiles
- Bomb:
- Explodes when colliding with any surface, shooting out 3 balls
- Jumping over is worth 3 points (no wall jump bonus)
- Emits an explosion effect
- Freeze Bomb:
- Explodes when colliding with player, ground or ceiling
- Freezes player for 2.5 seconds if within radius
- Player cannot move & still takes damage
- Emits a frost explosion effect
Added 2 new level features
- Spikes
- Damages for 1 health when fallen on & bounces player upward
- Platforms
- Can be jumped up through by player
- Projectiles are not affected by these (will go right thru them)
Added level & level transition system
- Fixed camera not tracking correctly between levels
Added combo system
- UI in top right corner to indicate multiplier
- Multiplier reset if damaged / go to next level
- Threshold to reach next multiplier is increased with each level
- Made score particles reflect multiplier amount
Added lives system
Added a new level to introduce the bomb projectile and another to introduce the spikes & platforms
Fixed some collision issues with player against walls & projectiles getting stuck in terrain
Added coyote time (jump buffering) of .2 sec
Added invincibility effect when damaged and when starting level
- Player can move but cannot destroy any projectiles nor be hit
- Goes away after 1.5 sec (hit) / 2 sec (level start)
Added screen shake when damaged
Made it so that projectiles can only be destroyed when a player has jumped and is within a certain amount above the projectile. This way, falling off a ledge or platform without jumping doesn’t give you the point, and you have to be close to whatever you’re jumping over
- It was too easy to jump over a ton of projectiles and rack up mad points before if you got up to a high spot
Made things much more adaptable overall:
- Can add or remove ball types to each level separately, including giving them a variable spawn rate each time
Made it so that the regular balls’ spawn rate does not increase gradually over time
Reworked player UI
