Minor updates to Depths of Europa demo


I’ve just posted an update to the Depths of Europa demo.

The changes are minor and correct a few small bugs people reported, as well as touching up some of the backgrounds:

  • There were minor cosmetic issues after restoring a save until the first scene transition
  • Player projectiles originated a bit too far to the left when player was facing right
  • Background window frames were slightly tweaked for more consistent perspective
  • The Blue Suit, Red Suit and Woody optional player color schemes were tweaked to look better

There’s no reason to revisit if you’ve already played it, but it’ll be a bit more polished for new players now.

Great game so far! When having a coloured suit and changing the room, you can see briefly the default player, who is also reset a few pixels higher than the ground subsequently falling (I guess it's supposed to avoid being stuck in collision or objects).
I'm a fan of metroidvanias. Would be great to have a physical copy of the final game :D

I'm impressed. The demo was really nice, and I really enjoyed the music. I'll be there day one for the Kickstarter

I seem to have lost the ability to shoot after picking up the wall jump. Otherwise looks incredible!

Hm. I can’t seem to replicate that - how were you playing it? Was it via the web embed?

Yeah, the web embed. Could be user error but I dug through all the menus looking for a way to turn back on my gun and couldn't find anything.

Oh, I think I figured it out - if you have caps lock on, the Z/X keys don’t register.

Maybe you pressed that? I should make a note in the instructions…

Weirdly, X kept working for me.
