Alpha 1.18 - Controller support
Developer commentary:
We're currently in the middle of revamping story mode, so it's disabled for now. To be honest, I don't think it was ever that good anyway and I now believe that alpha 1.10 was a mistake. However, I decided it was about time to add controller support. I've always thought the game could work great with the twin stick style controls, and I was right!
-Dan
-Controller support!
-PSA: the code for keybinds has been modified. If you are having issues from this update with the "rebind keybinds" page, reset your keybinds and relaunching the game. If that does not work, reset your game save.
-You must select "Controller" in the settings menu in order to actually use your controller.
-Combat Controls:
-Punch: Right Shoulder
-Kick: Right Triger
-Block: Left Trigger
-Dash: Left Shoulder
-Move body: Left Stick
-Turn around: Left Stick (press)
-Move head: Right Stick
-Jump: South button
-Equip/Unequip weapon: West button (tap)
-Pick up weapon: West button (hold)
-Select next item: Dpad Down
-Use item: Dpad Up
-UI Navigation:
-Left Stick/dPad to navigate buttons
-Start button to pause
-South Button to select
-Right Stick to move world map
-Left/Right Shoulder to Zoom In/Out
-Gameplay
-New mechanic: rolling (with a punch)
-All attacks have a direction, and must hit a body part in order for it to deal damage
-Depending on the body part's current global velocity, it will affect the final damage
-Roll: A hit body part moving away from an attack will have its damage taken be reduced down to 0.75x
-Antiroll: A hit body part moving into the attack will take up to 1.25x extra damage
-The goal is to make slipping into a strike more dangerous, and slipping out less so, but you also have a higher damage potential against enemies that are charging at you.
-Head hit multiplier reduced from 2x -> 1.5x. Head hits were just too lethal. Rolling also increased damage potential by a lot, which stacked with head hits. They are still far more lethal than body shots.
-Push multiplier is now also a balance damage multiplier
-Story mode temporarily disabled as it is currently being revamped
-Added keybind for mouse/keyboard turning around with just one button press (default: Left Alt)
-Naturally spawning enemies now all have a slight randomization on their stat block (from 0.9x to 1.1x)
-Added a button to take no reward in case the player ever wants to do so
-Arcade mode now gives a free upgrade at the very start
-Smoothened ragdoll from airborne
-Enemies more smoothly transition from getting up into attacking
-QOL
-Style select screen now only shows available moves instead of highlighting available moves. It also now shows all available moves, and clicking on an arm/leg move will swap the map to the arm/leg mapping
-Aesthetic
-Modified knife stance
-Enemies now fade away on death instead of popping out of existence
-General UI updates
-Bugfixes
-Knockdown revenge description fixed
-Knife slash no longer knockbacks the wrong direction
-Saving controls should now work across play sessions
-Fixed Muay Thai not having access to hook
-Fixed an issue with the high kick lagging a split second before applying damage
-Fixed enemy getting knocked over simultaneously when you get knocked over

This game is still very early in development. Expect consistent bugfixes for the near future!WARNING: While in this early development state, save data is not guaranteed to be preserved in future updatesCLAIRVOYANCE
A love letter to 2000s stick figure fighting animations such as Xiaoxiao and games like Electric Man 2, Clairvoyance stands on the shoulders of giants from a bygone age. As a single-player 2D sidescrolling PvE roguelike fighting game where you can see a split second into the future, it aims to have you feel like a martial arts master while taking on multiple enemies at a time.YOUR BODY IS WEAK, BUT YOUR SPIRIT IS STRONG
The player has identical stats to the swarms of enemies. Brute force is not an option. However, due to your clairvoyance, you can see enemy attacks coming before they land. This allows you to feasibly battle large groups of enemies at once by planning your actions instead of relying purely on muscle memory or remembering attack patterns.NO ROOM FOR MISTAKES
Combat exchanges are short and lethal. There is no emphasis on juggling or extensive combo memorization. Being able to take 5-6 hits is already on the higher end of durability, and death in 1-2 hits is not uncommon, especially with powerful strikes to the head, which has the highest damage multiplier of any body part.UNIQUELY FUN GAME MECHANICS
A high degree of control is given over your body. You can bob and weave around enemy attacks in ways traditional fighting games have never allowed you to!
Attacks are decided by your stance instead of directional input, and can be custom mapped. For example, leaning low + kick might launch a knee strike, while standing tall and leaning forward can launch jabs. Some moves can only start their animation in one stance and end in another. This makes it faster or slower to transition between certain moves, unlike the directional input system.FIGHT YOUR OWN WAY
-Multiple martial arts styles, each changing up how you approach every fight!
-Highly customizable movesets
-Multiple weapon types
-Multiple characters, with unique stats
-Powerful upgrades to obtain in-game, ranging from explosive strikes to lifesteal
