v3 Update (Post-jam)


The version 3 update fixes a bunch of common complaints! (Sorry it took so long - the game's supposed to be connected to a collaborative project at some point, and I was holding out for that... but it's a bit delayed so I'm just gonna drop all these quality-of-life improvements now)

Changes:

  • Replaced the custom 3D model system with SMF, this improves performance and allows for a more expressive character.
  • The "THIS IS YOUR WORLD..." screen now has a "(LOADING...)" in the corner so it's more clear why you can't skip it.
  • The ending is smoother and (hopefully) more satisfying now.
  • Tweaks to draw distance and fog intensity to make the field of view feel "less narrow"
  • Greatly reduced polygon count when generating map and collision lookup table (=about 4x faster load times!)
  • Collision checking reduced to just 2 points, which should improve performance. (You can clip into walls and stuff more easily now)
  • Removed lighting effects, now only the balloons will glow.
