Recently released a big update for my game and need some extensive feedback.
I am particularly interested in the following:
- Level of difficulty.
- Improvements for enemy behaviour.
- Bugs and spelling errors.
If you have played before and want to skip ahead to the new stuff or if you want to skip ahead in general follow these instructions:
1: Start a new game and choose “not to take the tutorial.”
2: Proceed as usual.
3: Once you reach the Swirling Tree, go back the way you came from but let the jumping deer pass the screen first, it creates a stupid bug otherwise.
4: MR.TV (head is a tv) is the guy you need to talk to if you want to go directly into ACT3.
5: When choosing which level to start Act3 Winter at, know that 17 is actually pretty hard, lower levels are even harder.
When I get back to fiddling with act 1 and 2 I might increase the xp on some bosses to make sure a player who goes through the game without the cheating room ends up on an appropriate level.
6: Choose the Begin ACT3 option at the end of the string of choices if you want to be able to progress through the narrative. The other options are for fucking around and testing shit and will break progression in different ways.
There are a few ways to get through the new act, I made a gameplay video of one of them. If you do test it out, tell me what path you chose.
