Dev Blog: Early Access Update 1
Hey everyone as I work toward the 'Just Flip' launch to Early Access I thought I'd try to give periodic updates for those interested.
One of the primary things I've worked on lately is a re-do of the 1st 10 minutes or so of the game. I had designed the beginning of the game prior to adding support for the spring jumps and skiing so none of that existed at the beginning of the game.
After playing with the springs and skiing for a while now, I've come to the conclusion that they really are the "star" of the game. Therefore, it makes sense not to hold them until later in the game.
Here is what one section near the beginning of the game used to look like (ignore the color):
Here is what that section looks like now (Ignore the red developer tools):
I think it's a good change and gets to the fun much quicker.
Let me know what you think.
