Update 4: Rhythm Mode/Redesigned Movement
Hi everyone! Thank you so much to everyone that has played our demo since our last update! We hope you've been having fun with the scales practice level! Practicing your technique has never been more fun! Here is the demo's fourth update! As a reminder, for the duration of the demo we plan to put out small but more frequent updates like this one. Much of the content of these updates will include bugfixes, new features, and continued polish as we move towards Early Access. Without further ado, here are the big takeaways from Update 4:
Major Changes
- Rhythm Mode -- We received lots of feedback that a game mode that doesn't require playing any notes was very much needed! Introducing: Rhythm Mode. With a computer keyboard, simply press the space bar at the right time, and the cat will move to the correct position for you! We hope that this game mode will be more approachable to beginners!
- Redesigned Movement -- We made movement in the game entirely physics-agnostic, ensuring that the cat will move to the exact right spot and reducing movement-related bugs. *Redesigned movement changed the behavior of the cat animations which we will be addressing next update*
Minor Changes
- Level Selector Features -- Now, in the level selector, when you choose a level to play, a setup window will pop up, where you will be able to choose the input mode (computer keyboard or MIDI device) and the game mode (normal mode or rhythm mode) you wish to play. Also, you'll be able to hear a preview of the song you're about to play!
That's all for this update. If you've made it this far, thanks for reading. As always, we really appreciate feedback and if you'd like to provide some then check out the section on the main page. Also be sure to check out our Instagram and Discord as well! Until next time!
