Repeated intro

Hello! The most complex change I had to make was to optimize the game and FPS drops reported by players. It took some time, but I hope it is way better now - together with testers, we did not observe any performance drops.

changedThere are optimized shaders and particles for a smoother experience on weaker computers - it should grant at least two times better performance in all stages.

Here is the complete list of all improvements and tweaks:

System improvements:

  • The"Camera Shake"toggle is added to the settings now.

  • Players can press the confirm/jump button while the teleporting animation is played to skip the reward screen animation and quickly enter the next stage.

  • Improved preloading system to eliminate FPS drops during the gameplay.

  • There are optimized shaders and particles for a smoother experience on weaker computers - it should grant at least two times better performance in all stages.

  • The music track is not interrupted when changed during the cutscene after the stage restart.

  • Improved firing turrets system. The projectiles detect collisions with enemies more precisely.

Difficulty tweaks:

  • The section with the double dash over the laser field in the"Dashing Machine"stage (no. 16) is now less challenging.

  • The laser beam in the"Why Is That Laser Chasing Me?"stage (no. 23) is slower on easy difficulty now.

  • The"System Overheat"stage (no. 9) has simplified the last area before teleport. Circular saws are moved off a bit.

  • Rockets flying towards the player in"Flight To The Island"Level (no. 26) are slower now.

Together with that, I would love to thank you for your fantastic support. The Bzzzt game has reached 37k wishlists and still has a breathtaking 99% positive reviews here on Steam.

Have a great rest of the weekend!
