Hi everybody, we’re back with another update! <\/p>\n

Unfortunately there is not too much to show this time around. That doesn’t mean nothing happened, though. In fact we created a lot of graphics<\/b>. But since nothing is properly integrated yet, there is a lack of fancy screenshots. Still, we have a couple of gif animations for you!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Enemy Graphics<\/h2>\n

T-Free<\/b> has been working on new enemy graphics and animations. First of all our Hedgehog enemy now got an idle animation.<\/p>\n

\"HedgehogIdle\"<\/p>\n

In addition he continued working on the new Meerkat enemy<\/b> which will be finished soon. Here some impressions:<\/p>\n

\"MeerkatIdle\"<\/p>\n

\"MeerkatThrow\"<\/p>\n

Following this will be third enemy. There are no finished graphics for this one, but there is a sketch<\/b>:<\/p>\n

\"grinding-thrid-enemy-sketch\"<\/p>\n

Can you guess what kind of enemy it will be? :D<\/p>\n

The goal is to finish all these enemy graphics this month. So stay tuned for more stuff in the next update!<\/p>\n

A new character<\/h2>\n

I’ve been working on graphics for a new, unknown character<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Here a small impression:
\n\"new-character-run\"<\/p>\n

Doing the animations of this character has been a lot of work. That’s because you will actually play<\/b> this character (at least for a short time). And as you might guess from Lea, playable characters come with a ton of animations… But it’s mostly done already! And my hand hurts because of it!<\/p>\n

So, “Who is this character?”<\/b>, you ask? Sorry, we won’t tell you for now. In fact, we will probably keep this a secret all together. Each game needs its mysteries, right? :P<\/p>\n

However… this won’t stop us from showing you a concept art as well:<\/p>\n

\"new-character-concept\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Keyboard Configuration and more Options<\/h2>\n

R.D.<\/b> took on the tedious work of making the keyboard controls of CrossCode configurable<\/b>.
\nThat’s right, now you can play CrossCode with any keyboard imaginable!<\/p>\n

This is how the keyboard options page looks like:<\/p>\n

\"options-keyboard1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When you click one of these keys you will get this prompt to submit a new key:<\/p>\n

\"options-keyboard2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition to the key binding, R.D.<\/b> implemented a couple of other options.<\/p>\n

So, if you’re not a fan of numbers, you can now disable the status HUD and\/or damage numbers:<\/p>\n

\"crosscode-no-hud\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Note: The screen will still blink red when you are low on HP. So you’re not entirely clueless about your status. :D<\/p>\n

Boss Battle and Physics Stuff<\/h2>\n

And what else? Intero<\/b> finished a first version of the boss battle<\/b theme and it's pretty awesome (imho :D)! But still, he first wants to polish the mixing of the track before we give you any excerpt. More on that in the next update.\n\nAlso, there have been a couple of physics bugs...\n\n\"physics-fail\"<\/p>\n

I fixed those.<\/p>\n

And finally, CrossWeek is getting closer! We now decided for a date: We’ll get together and push CrossCode from October 9th to 15th<\/b>! Expect lots of new stuff, afterwards!<\/p>\n

And that’s all for this update. Until next time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
