changedThis is a somewhat major update to the Slashbang Vertical Slice with some gameplay changes! Hopefully they will make the game more fun.
addedNew alt fire functionality! In addition to the larger aiming reticle, the Crapshoot now is semi automatic! Holding the button will release more bullets at a higher ammo cost. It's really powerful!
changedImproved bullet slicing! Slicing a bullet with Flynn's claws now is way more responsive, and you're not likely to get hurt anymore doing it.
removedRemoved a rock from the end of the first level to make game flow feel better.
addedThat's right - I said first level! I'm trying to finish up the new level for SAGE 2026, which I should be able to make in time. I hope to add a brand new level minimum, with a good chance of a new weapon and maybe a new mechanic.
