Qualdrin 3.0.5 patch notes: Cutscene and Options

2/16/2018

0 Comments

 
​In a continued effort to be more direct in what I want players to learn and do, I created a cutscene introducing the Bottom Feeder and how it behaves. I also added an Options menu to provide additional options for accessibility.
Bug fixes
  • None
Design changes
  • Added introductory cutscene highlighting what happens when enemies and blocks hit the Bottom Feeder.
  • Added Options menu.
    • Can mute or unmute sound effects (to reduce stimulation for those with cognitive challenges).
    • Can turn starry background on or off (to reduce stimulation for those with cognitive challenges).
    • Can turn Bottom Feeder stage hazard on or off (to reduce difficulty if necessary).
    • Can play with standard number of lives (5) or more lives (50) (to reduce difficulty if necessary).
Known bugs
  • High scores are not properly sorted. 
  • When editing controls, you can set the same key for multiple controls.
  • Text for the gamepad controls doesn't display properly.
  • Can't use the Tab key to switch between game control types. (Usability bug)
  • Under testing - Most players don't notice or understand what the Bottom Feeder does. (Design bug)
