The Police Update!
Police pigs finally do something!
This was a fairly essential feature I wanted to add in the original jam submission - now the game should feel a bit more exciting and interesting to play.
Police pigs were in the original jam submission, too, but all they did was slowly walk towards the player and kind of get in the way, absorbing shots that could otherwise have damaged houses.
Now, police pigs will bonk the player away (with a satisfying BONK sound effect bubble) when they get close, cancelling the player's inhale or blow if they are currently charging up or attacking. This punishes the player for getting too close to them, which should make them feel like more of a threat, and possibly even worth using an attack to take care of.
The stats page and control options
I also added a stats page, where you can see stats such as how many of each pig you've blown down, how many houses you've destroyed, etc. I also added a way to get back to the control option select screen that shows when you first play the game, in case you want to change your choice after that.
A UI element showing your inhale charge
This was another feature I had wanted to add sooner!
I got some feedback that the controls were a little tricky to get a handle on - and I also noticed this in some playtesters, who didn't realise they had to hold the button for a while before the wolf will start blowing.
To try to fix this, I added a circle that expands around the wolf as he breathes in - with an outer circle showing roughly where you should release to get a "perfect breath" bonus. It could probably still use some tweaking, but it should help for now!
Hope all of that makes the game more fun! If you played any of the previous versions, make sure to let me know how you feel about the changes.
