Heatwave v0.14.0


Additions:

  • Added boss encounter - Unit TH-CC7 (mission mode)
  • Boss interactions:
  • finisher dom 
  • finisher sub
  • grab struggle
  • Added new weapon.
  • Added an upgrade for starter weapon.
  • Added cumming facial expressions.
  • Added skippable time between waves.
  • Added keybind options.
  • Added popup indicators.
  • Added highscore + completion mark.
  • Added pickup for energy (white bar).
  • Added save file.
  • Added stat/ammo icons, energy drain effect + some other stuff.


Changes:

  • Coins now don't fall through platforms.
  • Slightly slower close combat enemies.
  • Enemy projectiles now expire after some time.
  • Ammo type that's currently in use is now highlighted.
  • Changes in texture/skeleton rigs.
  • Futa textures now separate.
  • ! Changes to custom texture loading (new texture names + textures now go in mod/actors) that means custom textures made for previous version needs to be renamed to work and placed in correct folder.
  • Custom textures placeholders are no longer being created in "mod" folder - to get them, download "modkit" file from Heatwave itch.io page. It will be expanded in time with future updates and templates to make more areas of the game easier to modify.


Bugfixes:

  • Fixed game freezing/black screen at startup - should work for most cases but sometimes the problem can be caused by: anti-virus/nvidia panel settings(probably antialiasing)/restricted access - so check it out if the black screen still appears.
  • Fixed buying ammo beyond capacity.
  • Fixed npcs walking in place during finishers
  • Minor animation cleanups.
  • Minor camera rework.
  • SFX tweaks.
  • Weapon handling and stats tweaks.
  • AI tweaks - makes enemies stack less.


Notes:

Black screen issues should now be resolved - if you still experience the problem, try some of the following: enable admin privileges on startup, add game to exceptions in antivirus software, if you have Nvidia GPU - tweak settings in Nvidia control panel (from my research anti-aliasing settings can sometimes be the culprit.).

I added log functionality so if something is crashing the game you can hopefully check the cause and add it to feedback if you want. Log files are located in "AppData/Roaming/Heatwave/logs"
