A new update for the alpha is ready. Here is an overview of the changes added since the last update:

-Controls are tighter, especially for keyboard users.

-When attached with beak, added the option to prevent launching by holding the grab button OR using a different button

-2 brand new zones with over 100 levels.

-Settings are now saved autmatically and persist across save games

-New music tracks added

-Tilemaps and levels load faster

-Collision edge cases have been reviewed and improved

-Save games store and display more information in menus

-Menu improvements

-Huge graphics update. New tilesets, backgrounds, animations, and sprites have been added

-Added a unique zone end event for each zone

-Added 3 new NPC characters with dialogue trees

-Lightmap improvements on various elements

-More sound effects added

-Overall presentation (summary screens, opening scene, events, credits) is more polished

-some secret levels...

The plan is to add 3 more zones. I hope to reach about 250-300 levels in total. Each new zone will introduce a new mechanic like wind, boost resets, or the popular boost platforms and combine them with mechanics from previous zones. The final zone will be the culmination of all mechanics! Please drop by the Discord and share your experience: https://discord.gg/JVQ9Q8Fe3q
