v0.12 Minimap Introduced, Menu Lag Fixed


This version introduces the new Minimap feature! The minimap will show rooms as you unlock them, shows a flashing indicator on the room the player is, shows the exit directions for each room, and shows stair icons if that room contains them. I may potentially add collectible indicators in the future showing whether or not you've found a secret within the room. The Options menu has also been introduced. The Hint command within the options menu does not work currently, but save and quit do. This is how the player will save the game. This version also features bug fixes for menu lag and a few reworks to systems on the back end to prevent overall lag.

Fixed:

  • You should no longer be able to access the menu for a lot of the cutscenes in the game. Still combing through to see if there are any more that I've missed.
  • Cursor lag in the menu should no longer exist. Added a slight rework to prevent menu lag but will continue to test.

Known bugs

  • The Hint option currently does not work
  • If you save and reload your save, a lot of the menu will still be open
  • Reset Room may not work in certain rooms
  • Options is accessible in the tutorial menu, this is potentially game breaking if Save is used here.
  • Captain's Log #2 contents are not filled in.
  • The minimap does not function on the last accessible room with the laser.
  • There may be instances where the minimap does not get erased.
  • Some items may relocate to the incorrect place when using Reset Room
  • The character may be able to move briefly when switching between menus and submenus
  • After releasing Miles, the stairs down to the first room create a softlock. Bring up the menu and cancel it while trying to move away fixes this.
