Notes From The Producer: July ??, 2010
--Christopher M. Park
New & Updated Levels
- Adventure cutscene 113 has been completed.
New & Updated Art/Music/Sound
- When combos are achieved, different fanfares are now played, and visual effects for the combo are now also displayed. This makes it far more obvious when combos are even occurring, and makes it feel a lot more rewarding.
- The flashing highlight on blocks that resulted from Auto Marking of blocks was giving a headache to some folks on the team, so we decided to make it a slower-flashing small "M" in the bottom right corner of auto-marked blocks. You can still turn this feature off either way if you don't like it, but this should retain the usefulness of that feature without bothering people.
Gameplay Additions
Gameplay Updates
New Level Editor Features
Misc
- Added Claim Victory button for levels that cannot be lost (zen with no time limit and no special objectives, etc) so that those scores can be counted for high scores levels, etc.
- Fast Forward and Ultra Fast Forward buttons no longer show on brainteaser, zen, and light-up levels.
- Find Internet Games made significantly more robust in handling errors.
Bugfixes
- In previous prereleases the last two keybinds were being cut off the bottom of the keybinding configuration screen. Fixed.
- Fixed a bug with the heat glow weather effect that was causing "ghosting" in cutscenes, and which was eating up a ton of extra CPU/GPU during the heat glow scenes, anyway. The new effect is vastly more efficient and bug-free, but looks a slight bit different.
