Version 1.2 Update

Patch Notes

Additions:

• Spider themed art set (Spiders, spider eggs, health crystals)

• Added new forest art sets (thin deciduous, ancient ruins, abandoned graveyard, thin conifer)

• Stealth Mode: an option for all difficulty levels that provides a very different gameplay experience. Here a few key points about Stealth Mode

  • The enemies have hearing and vision.

  • Hearing is mostly a factor of movement (especially movement speed).

  • Vision is mostly affected by whether you are crouching (which is new) and whether you are hiding in bushes (also new).

  • You have a new stealth icon on your HUD that indicates how visible you are to the enemies. The size and color of the icon give you a clue as what's happening.

  • Of course, if you have your light on...they will see you unless you're on the opposite side of the map, then...maybe...

  • The enemies have a new "suspicious" state where they sense something but don't know exactly where it is, so they go looking in the general vicinity of where they last heard/saw something. It's possible to hide (in bushes, crouching and not moving) as they pass RIGHT by you...but that doesn't always work.

  • There are no health potions in Stealth Mode. At all.

  • You don't lose health in Stealth Mode unless you're hit by an enemy or your sprinting (sprinting costs less health than it does in other modes).

  • Obviously, you cannot do Stealth Mode Deathruns...they are pretty much the opposite of each other.

  • Stealth Mode high scores are stored separately (example, Easy - Easy Stealth - Medium - Medium Stealth, etc)

  • Picking up treasures (or smashing spider eggs!) will cause noise that could attract enemies!
