Shapids 1.0 Update

So, for people who don't know what Shapids is, it's a game made in less than 48 hours for the GMTK Game Jam 2024.

I knew it wasn't a unique idea, but I made it anyway.

You might ask: "Botte, why did you make a platformer game?"

And... My first idea for a game was completely different...

But I thought I wouldn't have enough time to make it, so I scrapped it.

--------------------------------------------

I started by adding slopes to the game because it felt too *blocky* without them, and they turned out pretty good in my opinion.

Until I realised that slopes are... ABSOLUTE PIECES OF GARBAGE

Seriously, the slopes' collision boxes are just so janky!

I tried a lot of things... and the only thing that worked was something that some people complained the game didn't have:

Coyote Time!

--------------------------------------------

Made some in-game tutorials (which are just .png files xD)

Added some environmental effects (snow, water, rain etc)

The sky actually looks like a sky now.

--------------------------------------------

And I fixed another problem that has been bothering me since I started making this game...

SOFTLOCKS

They were a pain to fix :/

--------------------------------------------

And if you find any bugs, feel free to contact me and tell me what and where they are ;D
Feedback would also be appreciated!

Have a nice day,
