Thanks again to everyone who's supported the game so far. I'm excited for more to come and for you all to get familiar with the game and all it has to offer.
HopDodge 1.999
Yeah this is the year long development anniversary for HopDodge. This update includes crossbows, squids, and codeblocks.
Crossbows work like swords, can be used by Hop and OpDo and fire arrows. These arrows interact with MP like the swords do where both players need to be solid for it to have an effect.
Squids are like goblins, but a little different. They will chase the camChar when they are in range, and will ignore other characters. They also move on the x/z plane and fall on the y, while being able to jump. Touching them will respawn them, as well them dropping off the map. However, a sword or crossbow can kill them until the level is reset or reloaded.
Codeblocks are the biggest thing in this update. They essentially allow the creation of custom code that can be run in levels. Using some of the example code as a base, it could be possible to make powerups, animations, weapons, and so much more. The potential is very high, but will anyone take advantage? Not sure.
There's a few miscellaneous changes. Rabbits have cooldown walking into walls now, preventing them from wall scaling. WASD is now the default bindset. There's a scanline effect that can be toggled with f5. Level completion now triggers an animation and a prompt showing the how long it took to beat that time as well as the record for the level completion. Almost forgot! There's a death animation for Hop now.
Finally there's now a bunch of new examples of codeblocks being used in the file: code.sav. That can be loaded from within the game.
Godspeed.

As well as new billboarding effects for Dodge:

Level previews on goals now show where the goal leads too.
There's new load and save menus.
Copy and Paste Improvements:
Rotating selections

Pressing 1-9 keys will hot save the current selection. Allowing for quick swapping and constant memory between levels:

Play mode is now connected to the last save you played. So going back into the play mode will put you right back where you left off.
Anyway thanks to all of you HopDodge players for sticking it out through this Early Access period. More stuff coming soon!
