0.1.1 Patch Notes
Nerd Storm v0.1.1
Heads up: your controls have been reset to defaults. The input system changed underneath, so old bindings are wiped rather than half-migrated. Rebind from the Main Menu -> Settings -> Controls screen if you had a custom layout.
Loot drops off enemies now
Gems and staves now drop from enemies instead of spawning on the floor.
Potions
Health, mana and speed potions now drop from enemies as well. Drink just by walking over them: Hurt, out of mana, or swarmed. This is as close as you'll get to an easy mode.
Puzzle & HUD
- Rotate held gems with the mouse wheel (R and T still work)
- Click outside the puzzle to drop the gem you're actively carrying
- Hover over a slot to highlight the gem bound to it
- The ability to tab through your puzzle tabs with shift is now conveyed in the UI.
- Stand on a spell gem pickup to see the spell's name, its icon, and the shape of the puzzle piece before you pick it up.
Portals
Stand in one for a moment and it takes you to the next level. a ring charges up, stepping out cancels. Pressing interact still works instantly.
Tutorial
Now teaches gem rotation, and shows the actual keys for it. Fixed a bug where enemies could fail to spawn, leaving kill objectives impossible to finish.
Co-op
Minor changes to Puzzle UI presentation in co-op mode. The grid now snaps to it's desired side upon opening, as opposed to always appearing on the right at first.
Removed
Temporarily removed Smart Cursor mode until we have the resources to properly teach this within the tutorial.
Fixes
Cleaned up a few art assets in an effort to take a step closer towards pixel-perfect.
