addedHey guys! We’ve heard your suggestions and we're excited to announce the new patch that we've just released, the new patch contains the following:
changedThe game now saves half of your Luck when you reach a checkpoint, so when you die you don’t lose all your Luck, but keep half of it. We changed this because when you lose all your Luck you lose part of your momentum and felt (too) punishing.
addedWe offer 2 difficulties, instead of the ‘default’ difficulty. The difficulties are ‘New School’ and ‘Old School’. New School: With the New school difficulty, the way that the checkpoints behave is changed. Now when you die three times, you don’t have to start from the beginning of the level again, you can continue from your last checkpoint. Old School: The Old School difficulty works the same as the ‘default’ difficulty, so when you die three times you have to redo the whole level.
addedThere is also a New Game+ (called ‘Side B’), which you can only unlock if you beat the game in Old School mode.
addedHope you enjoy the new patch and that some of you can get ahead in Luckslinger :)
