HEADS UP
• Graphics, Music, SFX are not final, so they are a subject for change still.
KNOWN ISSUES
• The game only accepts X-Input controllers at the moment. So the Playstation controller is not working yet due to how Game Maker works with controller inputs.
• Some graphical glitches regarding the main character
• The Zoom in after the boss does not go back to fully normal, and this will be checked up on
• Enemies can get stuck into walls and will not behave 100% as intended, yet.
• Changing to fullscreen mode in the middle of cutscenes can make the aspect ratio look weird on the game
If you find any other bugs, i would really appreciate if you reported them!
