Demo (V0.2) is out!


The PGDX is done!

I appreciate all the feedback that has been given after the attendants have tested the game!

I apologize for the delay. The version was originally supposed to be released at August 01. However, technical problems had arisen, preventing me to upload the game on itch. Fortunately though, this allows some time to address some immediate concerns, which is included along with the additions and changes listed below:


Added:

  • Story Mode Demo - Play the first level, the Laboratory! It comes with a comic-based narrative; the first two characters, Chester and the Professor; dialogue boxes and a Tutorial!
  • Laboratory in Endless Mode!
  • 8 New Power-Ups (4 gadgets and 4 sabotages)!
    • Sandwich  - Doubles damage.
    • Mirror - Creates an invulnerable reflection of Chester on the opposite side on the screen (Only on City and later).
    • Spaghetti - Destroys all explosives on the screen (Only on Sky).
    • Extra Toaster - Grants an extra life.
    • Salt - Halves damage.
    • Spoon - Reverses controls (Only on City and later).
    • Megaphone - Doubles enemy spawns. (Only on City and later).
    • Flashlight - Limits the player's vision to a spotlight (Only on Sky).
  • Some additional HUD elements.


Changes:

  • Some Redesigns - The player character, the toaster, now has an identity: Chester, an assistant to the Professor.  To get rid of the pest problem, the Professor transferred his consciousness into the toaster, turning him into a pest eliminator. As a result, the logo and other promotional art has been changed to accommodate for the player's new design.
  • The Shield has been reworked - It is now changed to Honey, which makes the player pass through explosives, making it invulnerable instead of just blocking a hit.
    • This means that the player has invulnerability during respawn.
  • Power-up roll is now weighted.
  • In reference to the new power-ups, each level only has a limited set of them, with later levels, especially Sky, having more available.
    • Laboratory - Butter, Coffee, Extra Toaster, Honey, Caramel, Fork and Salt.
    • City - Same set as before, plus Chili, Fridge, Mirror, Sandwich, Spread Bread, Spoon and Megaphone.
    • Sky - Same set as before, plus Spaghetti, Bomb and Flashlight.


Bugfixes:

  • The player's respawn timer runs while the game is paused.
