Hey everyone,

This is the end of the first week of renewed development of Boss Breaker following Revival Jam 2023. I managed to make a decent chunk of progress this week and would like to go over it with y’all. Many of these changes come from the feedback I received from the Revival Jam, which is always appreciated.

The major changes/updates include:

• Increased base player movement speed
• Decreased stamina cost for dashing
• Fixed health boxes getting stuck in walls
• Fixed bug with player fists that would destroy everything in their path when close to an object
• Added dust particle effects when the player hits an object
• Fixed entity sprites becoming offset when the game is paused
• Fixed player hit-box
• Reworked player punching system to be more reliable
• Changed health box spawn chance from 40% to 25%
• Fixed player fists freaking out when next to a wall
• Added dedicated punching stamina cost instead of constantly removing stamina when punching
• Decreased base stamina recharge amount
• Added controller input support
• Updated tutorial to support controllers
• Added controls option in the pause menu
• Decreased base punch rate speed

The updated build is already public on the store page so feel free to go check it out.

Thanks for reading,

Ben
