Patch Notes for Magnetic
Magnetic » Devlog
- Particles :D
- Particle on Enemy Death (Adds juice to defeating enemies)
- Particles for push and pull bullets
- Particles when sprinting (Creates clarity when sprinting versus not)
- Simplified Hub Area (Orginal Hub Was too complicated and took too long to get between levels)
- Level Changes
- Level 2- Natural cover against snipers in the room containing many of them (Makes this section less awkward with slowly moving block as a cover).
- Level 3- Widened sections with crawling plants and timings to weave between them are more generous.
- Level 4- Widened section where you push block past many bumpers (Was too annoying).
- Level 4- Remove Pinball Sections (Too confusing and awkward for players to handle).
- Major Level 5 Rework:
- Cut the original design of taking blocks from 3 sections back to the beginning of the level (Too complicated, annoying, and unintuitive).
- Redesigned to have a clear linear structure while still weaving between the sections
- Spinners in the first section were changed from spiky to normal (allows players to learn the mechanic before adding lethality)
- The second section was completely reworked removing electric spinners and becoming a combat arena with spiky spinners.
- Removed the bumpers from the spinners of the third section.
- Level 6- Last section cut (Level was a bit long in the tooth)
- Level 7- Removed giant spinner section and replaced it with more interactive combat encounters that use the copycat enemy.
- Level 8- Last section simplified with fewer pits to drop the block into (Careful movements with the block on ice was annoying)
- Level 9- Last section cut (unintuitive chase sequence).
- Level 10- Portal scripts were refined so firing bullets traveled through portals.
- Level 10- Fixed section with snipers so that they shot through the portal.
- Level 10- Removed last section (Did not offer any twists on the portal mechanic).
- Level 11- Cut entirely, instead sends player straight to the final boss (Added no worthwhile mechanic and was too long).
