Demo Build 1.7.7, new features.

Hello,

Golel Demo 1.7.7 new features.

I have been fixing issues, and adding visual and audio cues that were missing.
One feature that took me at least a week to add, is gamepad support.
Golel Demo now supports gamepad.
You can play the entire game using gamepad only.
You will need to enable the "gamepad mode" from the menu(the menu can be accessed with the gamepad even without gamepad mode).



You can see the gamepad mapping here:
(Notice gamepad mapping not localized yet, and is only available in English)



What's next?

I would like to keep improving the gamepad support. There are still ways it can be improved and make a better experience.
I also need to update language localization for new terms, like the gamepad mapping.
I am also going to add support for cloud saves, and the ability to delete existing saves.
Also going to add more language localization.

What about the full game?

As much as I would like to continue work only on the full game.
I have found that I still need to implement some of those basic features, like gamepad support and cloud saves.
Those are features that are system wide, so they apply to the full game as well.
The reason is because, games not implementing those features can halve their chances of success.
Those are also very good features that players want, so it makes sense to implement them.

Thank you for being patient,
Ofer.
