It's been about a month, so it's time for another update!
In prep for level design, I did have to do another round of mechanic revamps. I wasn't happy with the dashing mechanic - it felt floaty and weird. Additionally, the sliding had some issues where, after reaching critical velocity and falling off a ledge, you'd die instantly.
Both have been resolved.
I've also changed the way tutorials are done! They are no longer super annoying. Still have some styling to do, but it works well imo.
You'll also notice that you can now ledge-climb even without picks :)
Here's some footage of the dashing:
Sliding
You'll notice that the critical velocity is reached, but the player doesn't necessarily die since they were sliding.And of course, the tutorials, with pickless ledge-climb:
That's all for now - stay tuned for more!
