Some more new additions


No new levels today, but I have added some features to the game that should make it much better.

Firstly, I fixed a few level design issues that were pointed out to me as well as adding some useful features like an arrow to indicate when enemies are vulnerable as well as a warning sign when the temperature is 5 degrees below the new melting point, 32˚ ( the actual melting point of ice in fahrenheit).

Next, I have rebalanced the difficulty system to make the game more accessible to players. It's a common issue for developers to underestimate the challenge of their games, and I want to work to make this game just the right difficulty. Master mode is still a challenge, and I may add a secret difficulty mode that's even harder for those who want it.

I also implemented a new system that scores and ranks your playthrough based on how many snow cones you collect and the amount of time it takes you to beat each level. All the ranks are based on temperature, such as "Absolute Zero" and "Pretty Chill". Basically, the colder the better.

Lastly, along with this new update, I have made an updated logo for the game that appears on the game page and in the main menu. I also updated the screenshots on the game's page to be from this current build but the trailer is not up to date. I will make a new trailer when the game is complete.

As far as new levels go, I am planning one last level that will be the climax of the game. I don't want to spoil it, but things are going to get very heated for Experiment 12, so stay tuned!
