Sneak Peek: Jog, Jiggle physics, Item updates, UI, and more!

[h2]Sneak Peek[/h2]
As we work on bigger updates for the demo's 2nd launch, we've been sending screenshots & previews in Discord. So we thought it would be fun to make a post showing off everything we've posted so far & some extras!

[h2]Jog & Jiggle Physics[/h2]


[h2]New Item Drops[/h2]
Old pickups were just a closed crate:


I wanted to show you what was inside a pickup before you walked up to them. We don't have a 3D model of every item in the game but every item does have an icon. So I came up with this new design! Along with some sparkling vfx.


As commonly requested, pickups now also have physics!


[h2]New loading screen in-progress[/h2]
We're working on redesigning the loading screen and have a new illustration in the works for it


[h2]UI - Character Creator[/h2]

[h2]UI - New Settings Menu[/h2]
This had been in the works the longest, even before the demo went public, and is finally ready!

[h2]UI - Auto Save Text[/h2]
Added text popup letting you know when the game is about to auto-save. Also making this a setting you can turn on/off.


[h2]UI - Dropdowns[/h2]
Dropdowns in the menu used to use a plain white background & black text, they've now been updated to match the Tropical design

*This one is a bit more subtle. But the buttons are larger for easier clicking, Discord button has been added, the frame/background have been made consistent w/ the rest of the new menus, and the header now has a fun see-saw animation. The dimming of the game world when opening now also happens smoothly instead of instantly.

[h2]Very cool[/h2]
Some of these were in-progress prior to the launch of demo v1 but weren't yet ready for play. Many are thanks to everyone's feedback as we continue to work & improve the game.

These are still in-progress along with a ton of other changes. We just wanted to show off the flashier ones we've done so far. These will be made available with the game's 2nd demo launch, which will be sometime between now & Early Access.

Thanks & sincerely,
