addedLast weekend we showed a special build of Stray Shot at a festival. It was pretty successful so we thought it would be nice to let you have it in some way... And so here it is! You can enable the festival mode in the festival_mode.txt file in the game's folder! It will add a new game mode to the game called "festival" which plays out a series of levels defined in festival_mode.txt! You can modify these if you'd like, or leave them as they are for the experience we designed ourselves. The festival mode also takes away the fullscreen setting from the options so it's safe to abandon in a festival or home party once launched. It even features aim assist to make the game a little more accessible to casual players!
addedSpeaking of which, we also added a bunch of new controls options to make the game easier to play! You can now play with just the keyboard, firing with the arrow keys, or on a controller you can fire with A B X Y, or aim with the right stick and only fire when pressing triggers. We also added an optional virtual cursor (only applies in runs) and aim reticles for the tanks!
addedAdded festival mode! Define the level progression and set up the game to be played at your event or home party! Check out festival_mode.txt in the game's files!
