The next official demos (including this one) will only provide bug fixes and graphics\/sound\/music enhancement. I now focus my work on adding levels and quests for the final release, which won&#8217;t be visible in this demo (especially new content).<\/p>\n<p>The main new things I&#8217;ve done since October 2015 are:<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\n<\/b><b>Content <\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 new Boss : the Wind Guardian<\/li>\n<li>Prototype of the new Boss arena<\/li>\n<li>Upgrade of the hero design: now the character has a face and you can see the wind moving his hair and clothes. And his eyes blink too.<\/li>\n<li>Master Josh now tells you to look in the 1st tutorial<\/li>\n<li>More dialog lines for Tal and Iris<\/li>\n<li>Upgrade of the Bo Dojo graphics: water stains with moving plants behind, lights, lanterns, light rays and fireflies<\/li>\n<li>Update of the link messages HUD, now showing avatars and enabling a better browsing among messages.<\/li>\n<li>Graphical update of the Eagle level: texture variations and adding an eagle-shaped rock on top of the level.<\/li>\n<li>Adding small secret coves in the demo levels<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Code &amp; optimisation <\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fix of the mouse wheel controls on the map<\/li>\n<li>Fog issue fixes for various shaders<\/li>\n<li>Fix of the bug where the character jumps on the edge of a cliff and stays blocked in the walking animation preventing him to climb<\/li>\n<li>Lots of minor bug fixes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8230; And a lot of work for the Toulouse Game show too (banners\/kakemono design, tee shirt, booth preparation, visit cards, &#8230;)<\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s broken ?<\/h3>\n<p>You didn&#8217;t expect everything to work perfectly, did you? I&#8217;m aware of a few bugs\/regressions\/problems:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You can&#8217;t change the default controls (because of the newly supported joypads). I plan to add a configuration screen later. If you try to change the controls in the popup screen appearing at the start of the game, you might totally break joypad support.<\/li>\n<li>Joypads work, but the UI help is still designed for keyboard\/mouse. So&#8230; just test buttons if you want to play on the joypad!<\/li>\n<li>Some shaders don&#8217;t work correctly on Linux and MacOS, among which the tree rendering.<\/li>\n<li>Environments are still a bit empty<\/li>\n<li>Some sounds must be re-designed<\/li>\n<li>The game lacks some music\/sounds<\/li>\n<li>Some camera moves are a bit harsh\/weird<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Controls<\/h3>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\" href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-q9wkNK3jpy0\/VjN1P_sb-5I\/AAAAAAAAJhc\/g6CQyJVi-QY\/s1600\/controlsEN.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: #404040;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-q9wkNK3jpy0\/VjN1P_sb-5I\/AAAAAAAAJhc\/g6CQyJVi-QY\/s640\/controlsEN.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"212\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Have fun!
