Herald of Havoc changes
Happy first anniversary to Herald of Havoc! To celebrate this special occasion, I'm releasing a new patch containing major visual upgrades, enhanced sound effects, a new enemy type for survival mode, and an entirely new level! I hope you'll enjoy it :) - Zeldars
New:
Added a little bit of spice in E3M4 - Cursed Town - Added a new enemy in survival mode (more info in the survival section) - Added a new level: the Military Zone
This level will replace the current E1M2, the latter is still playable in the "Extra Levels" menu
Improvements:
Weapons got a visual update! Here's some examples for comparison (new visuals are on the right):
All enemies got a visual update! Again, here are some comparisons:
Some levels got a visual update and E1M1's gameplay has been tweaked a little bit - You can now visibly see the guards holding the keys in E3M1 - Hide and Seek - Lower tier enemies now have more sound effects when killed - Bullet based weapons sound more impactful when hitting enemies - You can now delete a save file by pressing 'Del' on the keyboard - You can now visibly see cracks on Skeleton, Metal Colossus, and drone when they are badly damaged
Survival mode:
Endless mode renamed to Survival mode - Added a new special enemy for survival mode: The Unstable drone!
It's like a regular drone... except it explodes when killed, dealing big damage to enemies while you don't take any damage from its explosion! It's like a flying explosive barrel. Enemies hit by the explosion take full damage regardless of the distance between them and the explosion
Balance changes:
Metal Colossus's homing projectiles now disappear a little bit faster
Bug fixes:
Fixed the jump keybind not being rebindable - Fixed a bug where you could pick up an health pickup while at 100 HP - Fixed a bug in E3M4 where entering the pool of blood would sometimes make you bounce - Fixed a bug where the Shotgun's muzzle flash would stay on forever
