Update #2: QOL!
Joke the Jaker » Devlog
This is the second from a planned series of experimental updates for Joke the Jaker.
Effort has been made mainly at overcoming the most basic shortcomings. We are also aware of a deadlock bug occurring randomly; this will be fixed in the next version as it warrants a partial rewrite.
We also plan to gradually improve the UI, add new cards, jokers, and lore to the achievements, overhaul the PCG completely, and some more things :)
Note: WebGL build is broken. Please resort to downloading the Windows build :(
Major changes:
- upgrade to world generation
- better joker placement + one joker is guaranteed near spawn
- camera zoom rework: you can see more, especially in the down direction, and this scales with how far you can move
- fixed settings
Content:
- 1 new card: Hint - shows distance to exit (without texture for now)
- 1 new joker: Joke of the Day - +1 max energy (without texture for now)
- 4 new achievements (without lore for now)
Minor changes:
- tutorial will now only be forced upon first play. This can be overriden with CTRL
- rebalanced card rewards and card costs
- buffed Borrowed Gold and Pocket Watch jokers
- fixed bug allowing to interact with and spawn things out of bounds
- health regenerates between levels
- more consistent card shuffling
- buffed ESC button size B-)
- improved layout of in game UI
- fixed tutorial issues when going to next level
- fixed card action picker on some tiles
- fixed selected card UI bug when switching levels
- fixed issue when spamming E
- hotkeys 1-9 for fast card placement
