Repeated intro
Hello everybody :)
Extracted changes
- Gameplay
- Maps
- Performance
Here is a brand-new demo version update ... it's been a while, and some things havve changed in version 0.7.6!
Mostly the visuals, be it the new lighting & ambience in all levels (especially the houses), or the shadows, or the better environment textures, or all the fixes that came in between ...
There is still a lot to do ... but enough to enjoy a new adventure in space, with Zack - your friendly Laser Knight from the neighbourhood planet ;)
Greetings,
Denzi!
