[h3]We’ve made a few quality of life changes to Scathe to make your journey through the underworld that much smoother 🔥[/h3] We also noticed there were a few extra bugs in the infernal labyrinth than we had initially planned, so we’ve gone around with our handy fly swatter (and a flamethrower, for back-up) to squash all of those unwanted bugs 🐛 Thank you so much to all of the community members who submitted bug reports. We wouldn’t have been able to do it without you! --------- [h3]First of all, we’ve included some quality of life changes in this new build based on community feedback:[/h3] [b]The Big Boss[/b] - The health of all bosses has been reduced. [b]It’s Ball or Nothing[/b] - The health of all ball-type enemies (Fleshies, Swampies, Pinballs, Industriballs, and Invisiballs) has been reduced. [b]Fly, My Pretties![/b] - Demon squishy bits travel further and look better when performing a dash kill. [b]Ammo Let You Finish[/b] - The number of ammo pick-ups in each zone has been increased and the amount of ammo each weapon can hold has been increased! [b]Weapon of Choice[/b] - You will no longer encounter ammo pick-ups for weapons you haven’t discovered. [b]Reap What You Sow[/b] - An updated model for the Reaper demon has been added. [b]The Divine Interrupter[/b] - The voiceover from the Divine Creator and Sacrilegious can now be enabled/disabled in the Audio Settings. [b]Stop, Hell Hammer Time[/b] - The total game time stat has now been added to the pause menu. [b]Filter Friendly[/b] - All filters will now be unlocked for new users. --------- [h3]Secondly, here are the bugs that have been squished in our first patch:[/h3] [b]Weapon Wheel of Misfortune[/b] - The bug with the client’s weapon wheel during co-op games has been fixed, so your friends (and fellow enforcers) can rest easy knowing they can now switch between their weapons with impunity. [b]Hokus Bogus[/b] - Clients were sometimes unable to use spells during co-op games. [b]Music to Our Ears[/b] - The bug where the music would stop after various pick-ups or when the Demon Mode spell was used has been resolved, so you can rock out without fear of losing your demon-slaying groove. [b]Divine Resolution[/b] - Scathe now supports ultrawide resolution! We’ve added the new resolution to the menu settings. [b]Limitless[/b] - The Health and Magic Bar would reset after transitioning to new or previous zones during co-op games. [b]Get the Boot[/b] - Client’s ID would sometimes fail to update instantly after kicking a player out from a co-op game. [b]Where’s that Warlock[/b] - The Warlock mini-boss would sometimes get stuck too high up in the zone. [b]My Eyes![/b] - The excessive brightness of the lava has been toned down on low graphical settings. [b]Quoth the Raven[/b] - The Raven (Magic Gun) would sometimes disappear after the player lost a life. --------- [h3]And last but not least, here are a few other minor bugs that have also been resolved:[/h3] [list] [*] The incorrect number of lives being displayed for clients during co-op games; [*] The incorrect amount of ammo being displayed for clients during co-op games; [*] The Magic Bar failing to deplete for the client when using the Raven; [*] The hanging corpses in the environment showing metal impacts when shot instead of fleshy impacts; [*] The Magic Ring sometimes failing to appear for the client after they rejoined an ongoing co-op session; [*] The game reverting back to the Raven instead of the Magic Ring after transitioning between zones; [*] The Magic Bar continuing to deplete after casting the Freeze spell and while the spell was still active; [*] Sledge and Shock Sledge enemies disappearing completely after a player loses a life; [*] Razorback enemies becoming stuck after an arena had been cleared; [*] Overlapping text in the name and demon information box for the Grenadier Reaper enemy; [*] The inconsistency in the Ripper weapon pick-up animation if the player is holding the Raven; [*] Players sometimes taking damage after walking over the corpses of Winnowers during the mini-boss fight; [*] Demons being able to walk through a barrier in Zone 11; [*] The “Checking Privileges” pop-up lacking functionality with keyboard and controller; [*] The secret door in Zone 42 not closing properly after being triggered; [*] Shadow Demons have now been moved so they spawn in more appropriate locations/zones; [*] The Prism enemies now only spawn one at a time, since we discovered they lack collision with one another; [*] Extra spawns from Zone 7 have been removed; [*] The difficulty of Zone 24 has been scaled down to match other zones. [/list] --------- Now that we’ve dispatched all of those pesky bugs, we’ll be focusing all of our attention on our upcoming update!
