addedDesert City BackgroundI added a desert city called "Hadira" as a new static background to choose from. As you can see it is a city of skyscraper covered in a sandstorm.

addedRain VFXFurthermore, I added a "Rain" VFX. It collides with objects and creates little splashes during a collision. In combination with the "Rain" atmosphere sound effect and a calm music track, background and lighting of your choice, it can create a very relaxing mood.

added2D LevelsIn the recent updates I added a lot of 3D and 4D handcrafted levels. So it was time to go back to the roots and create a 2D matrix this time. Therefore, I added 30 new handcrafted levels and achievements for the 2D Screw 7x7 matrix.

Desert City Background

I added a desert city called "Hadira" as a new static background to choose from. As you can see it is a city of skyscraper covered in a sandstorm.

Rain VFX

Furthermore, I added a "Rain" VFX. It collides with objects and creates little splashes during a collision. In combination with the "Rain" atmosphere sound effect and a calm music track, background and lighting of your choice, it can create a very relaxing mood.

See this short video for an example. The following settings were used:

Visuals

Lighting: Cloudburst
VFX: Rain
Background: Banyan or Alley

Sounds

Music: None
Atmosphere: Rain

2D Levels

In the recent updates I added a lot of 3D and 4D handcrafted levels. So it was time to go back to the roots and create a 2D matrix this time. Therefore, I added 30 new handcrafted levels and achievements for the 2D Screw 7x7 matrix.

It looks like an intimidating 2D matrix, but it is actually easier to solve than the 5x5 Square matrix. Just focus on the first levels and you will solve all others in no time.

These features and also some small bug fixes will be available with the next update.
