Power ups - bombs, ice blasts, and shockwaves! New HUD - action indicators, and more! Breaking changes - remapped keys and changed some script outputs

Chests​

There are now treasure chests that appear. These chests contain powerups that will give your player a special attack. Chests must be broken open.

Power Ups​

Use an equipped power up with the action special. There is a cooldown and you can check by the property level_data.own_player.is_special_ready

Bomb​

Bombs will be dropped behind the player. Be careful! Their explosion can injure the player that dropped the bomb.

These will show up in level_data.hazards

Freeze​

This gives the player the ability to shoot icicles in the direction they are traveling. If hit by an icicle, a player or enemy will be frozen in place.

These will show up in level_data.hazards and level_data.enemies/players/is_frozen

Shockwave​

Releasing a shockwave will push all enemies, players, and bombs away from the player.

These will show up in level_data.players.unleashing_shockwave and level_data.enemies/players/is_pushed

HUD Updates​

Easily select the play mode you want to use.

Action indicators will highlight what action is being called by script, api, or manual mode.

Breaking changes​

  • manual mode keys remapped
  • Script action to use the shield went from raise_shield to shield
