Welcome to this week's update! As promised, we finally finished the new boss! So let's get right into what's new, shall we? [h2]Zorbius Teleports Onto The Battlefield[/h2] The new boss is called [b]Zorbius[/b]! He is a menacing wizard that can [b]teleport[/b] himself around the room and shoots [b]Energy Balls[/b] at the player.

You can also make him invisible! Here is a silly quick attempt at recreating the Ganon boss fight from The Legend of Zelda on the NES with an invisible Zorbius.

Use that to your advance in both combat and puzzles!

[h2]Remote Bombs[/h2] The remote bombs have no fuse... they are [b]detonated manually[/b]! This should be really useful in puzzles especially, so I can't wait to see what dungeons are being made with it.

Old dungeons using the previous entrance don't break, but using new entrances now will utilize this new one.

I hope that helps!

Not only general gameplay and making rooms a lot less prone to lag with [b]many entities[/b], but also editing your dungeon is a lot more snappy now with large rooms, and especially using the [b]paint bucket[/b] tool. [h2]Changes To How The Floor Below Is Shown[/h2] We've made a pretty significant change to how the floor below (for example through a hole) is being rendered in the game. Previously, It was using a perspective which made it shrink a bit, which looked cool, but was unintuitive while playing and also while designing the dungeon, as tiles didn't always line up 1:1. This is now changed. The floor below is now rendered fully orthographically, meaning tiles will line up 1:1. This was not only done because of visuals, but also due to some technical reasons, which also makes the floor below rendering a lot more efficient now, essentially making it negligible. [h2]What's Next[/h2] Next week, we will be releasing the new Enemies that we have talked about before! So I hope you are all excited. See you next week!
