Lawyer Guy: Defender of Justice changes
Dear Lawyer Enjoyers,
A new level, 'Electric Forest' just released. Like the previous level, you can launch it from the Steam menu that appears when you first open the game.
Thanks to everyone who has tried out the game so far! This stage should be a little easier than the last one, although it's also a bit longer. Other than the new stage, the biggest changes to this build are to do with the user interface, which I'm hoping to fully update this year.
Redesigned UI elements for the main menu and status screen
Smooth, animated transitions between screens
Completely redesigned results screen to be less boring (it also has music now)
New 'now entering' screen showing the level's name and music
Plus, there are many small fixes and quality-of-life improvements:
Lawyer Guy can now exit out of a jump almost immediately
Fixed a few visual inconsistencies, including making all blacks the same shade
Remaining checkpoints are now shown the lives screen
Lawyer Guy can now crouch and shoot
In horizontal scrolling areas, you can now longer make the camera judder by jumping at the top of the screen
Bullets now 'ding' from invincible objects instead of passing through them
Lawyer Guy is now ejected vertically from solid objects as well as horizontally
As always, please let me know what you think of the new stage. My next jobs will be: finishing the UI refresh, implementing a save system, and adding the hubworld, which should keep me busy for a while!
Rob
