0.1.9 (Sydenham) released


0.1.9 (Sydenham) is a bugfix and features update, in particular this release has:

  • New title music by the incredibly talented Ascorbius (more awesome music from him on his soundcloud)
  • New level component: Horizontal reflector. These bend laser beams by 90 degrees to explode things that would otherwise be unexplodable.
  • New level component: Converter. Hit one side with a pusher beam and it fires a laser beam out of the other side. Hit the other side with a laser beam and it fires a pusher beam out of the other side!
  • New level component: Time Bomb. These sit there unmovable and indestructible... with a timer ticking down that, once it hits zero, explodes the bomb and anything near it. Try not to be near it or have anything important near it when it explodes.
  • A simple example level for the new reflectors is included, and a very basic test level for the converter and timebomb (imaginatively called "test".  This will be removed in the next update, but has been left in just for demonstration purposes)

There have also been a few fixes to level selection and a bump to the latest 2021.3.8f1 Unity LTS.

Upcoming planned changes and additions intended for the next release include:

  • Support for additional zones accessible as the player progresses - currently only the first zone is defined, but at least 5 standard (plus at least one player-defined) zone are planned: Grid Wastes, Archives, Network Bus, Northbridge, and The Core.
  • Harmless 'NPC' entities that can move around levels
  • More levels!
