FINALLY! A NEW UPDATE
Dream Catcher 2.0 is here. This has been the longest time gap between updates. The good news is that time was well spent rewriting large sections of the game. But I know you guys don't care about the changes that happen under-the-hood. Here are some of the highlights from this update.
IMPROVEMENTS
Added particles when walking and jumping.
Footstep sounds now change based on the floor material.
The hitboxes of enemies is now based on their real size.
Wild tulpas now have the same portable light as the follower.
The follower's light will now automatically adjust brightness based on nearby light levels to avoid blinding you.
Significantly improved the way the sky looks.
Changed how the breeding system works to be based on time (Keep in mind that time does not pass while in battle).
Breeding now allows for random mutations.
Added a large quantity of sound effects at various points in the game.
Improved the look of the various light effects the follower can have.
Improved the pathfinding of the follower.
Improved various attack effects.
The time and weather affects battles as well.
Units in battle will now have the same light as their follower counterpart.
Added a few achievements.
BRAND NEW FEATURES
Added a new hat shop where you can buy hats for your tulpas (Every hat comes in 3 colors).
Added a summary screen for the trainer.
Added a day/night cycle (Purely visual).
Added a weather system (Purely visual).
Added moon phases (Purely visual).
Added a rare eclipse event (Purely visual).
Added the ability to headpat the follower.
Defeated tulpas now drop money.
BUG FIXES
Reduced RAM usage significantly.
Reduced freezing when switching various screens and UI elements.
Fixed a bug where some tulpas in a trainer battle would start with more than 100% of their max health.
Fixed a bug where the camera could get stuck during the evolution/hatching animation.
WHAT'S NEXT?
the next few updates will concentrate on changing the map, adding new tulpas and improving battles. Those are my 3 main priorities. I can't give a timeline of when updates come out anymore because I keep getting it wrong, but be sure that I still work on Dream Catcher every single day. I hope you continue to stick around.
