We have released a small update for our arcade space shooter Delta Loop (Windows and Linux versions). Here's the complete list of new features, changes and corrections included in this patch:
New features / Enhancements:
- You can now start the game on Stage 4 and Stage 8 once you reach them in any difficulty mode. A new starting point will be unlocked every four beaten stages.
- A few extra graphical effects have been added to the game HUD.
- A new "Minimalist HUD" mode has been added. It will only display the bare minimum information you need to play the game. Give it a try if you feel the normal HUD is too cluttered.
- You can now change the control method (mouse/gamepad) and the HUD type on the fly, in the Pause menu.
- Life bars have been reworked to make them look smoother and reflect the inflicted damage.
Misc. Changes:
- The maximum ammo for the "Heavy Bomb" and "Chaingun" weapons have been raised to 20 and 500, respectively.
- Score and money values are now shown with thousand separators.
- The text font in the HINTS section has been modified a bit to make it more easily readable.
Bugfixes:
- Fixed a bug in the "barrier drone" enemy that caused the game to crash under certain rare conditions.
- Fixed some misplaced text in the HINTS menu.
- Fixed a bug that forced the user to press ESC to unpause the game when using the "SKIP BONUS" option.
