Tidalis:0.416 Beta Release

Gameplay Additions

• New Apple (Golden) special block.
  • Can only be cleared by being eaten by eaters or pit monsters. Otherwise indestructible even to other specials. Also destroys the thing that ate it when it gets eaten. In Eater Defense mode, protect these in order to avoid losing.

• New Safety Pin item.
  • Pops a single water balloon, water fish, or bubble block.
  • Only available in puzzles or as part of Water mode (and in Water mode, this only appears on difficulties lower than 5).

Gameplay Updates

• Apples and Turnips now float in water.

• Apples and Golden Apples now kill Eaters and Pit Monsters that consume them.

Misc

• The Edit Board Details window now has two columns so that all of the Game Styles will fit in it.

Bugfixes

• Fixed bug in in-game help screen (and some other windows using scrollable areas) where toolitps would show based on the original positions of the icons rather than where they actually were due to scrolling.

• Fixed bug where scenes using a theme with precipitation would result in rapidly changing precipitation directions.

Internal Programming Notes

• It is now possible to have puzzle-only (and by extension special-mode-only) items, same as it has been possible to do that for a long while with special blocks.
