Update 2.0.0 is here!


In the last updates, I shared details about my second game and introduced update 1.1.0, which added a festive theme and minor features. This time, the game has been completely revamped with exciting new mechanics, a redesigned settings menu, and the introduction of achievements. Let’s break it down!

1. New Mechanics

The core concept remains the same: you control a robot that needs to recharge its battery constantly, or it’s Game Over. But now, I’ve added three new battery types to enhance the gameplay:

Red Battery 🔴: Common and risky—it decreases your battery by 10%.

Blue Battery 🔵: Rarer and beneficial—it makes your robot bigger for a few seconds, helping you collect more batteries.

Gold Battery 🟡: Extremely rare and spawns at the start of the game. It instantly recharges your battery to 100%!

2. Redesigned Settings Menu

The settings menu has been completely overhauled and is now divided into four categories:

1. General: Essential settings for smooth gameplay.

2. Audio: Adjust individual sound parameters with ease.

3. Screen: Choose from 8 preset viewport sizes for windowed mode. Manual resizing has been removed to ensure better stability. Fullscreen mode works as before.

4. Credits: A place to acknowledge everyone who contributed to the game.

3. Achievements

I’ve introduced a new Achievements section to add more depth to the gameplay. It’s divided into three parts:

Statistics:

Track your max score and see your rank, which ranges from Bronze 🥉 to Platinum 🏆.

Bronze: Default rank.

Silver: Intermediate level.

Gold: For advanced players.

Platinum: The ultimate achievement, unlocked at 2000+ points.

Trophies:

Your current rank is represented by a trophy, which changes as you progress through the ranks.

Mastery Titles:

Earn titles based on your achievements during gameplay. For example, scoring 50 points grants the “Good Start” title (Bronze category).

There are 9 titles in total, with Platinum titles being the hardest to unlock. The ultimate challenge, “Ultimate Champion,” requires reaching 10,000 points!

4. Bug Fixes

This update also includes several bug fixes to improve the overall experience:

Fixed issues with the score deletion feature.

Resolved bugs caused by resizing the game window.

What’s Next?

Let me know your thoughts on this update! If you have suggestions for balancing the new mechanics or ideas for future features, feel free to share them.

The Christmas theme will remain available until January 10th, so enjoy it while it lasts!
