0.2.9 To my kids 5 October, 12:49

Power-up slots switched off

A red tank in a street, a jet of water rising from a broken hydrant and sparkles around the tank
A broken hydrant, and the stars when a power-up ends.

The power-up slots in 0.2.8 worked: you could carry three and use them when you chose. After playing them I preferred the old way, where a power-up works the moment you pick it up. I asked for the slots to be switched off and kept, so they can come back one day.

In this build

  • Power-ups work the moment you pick them up again. The slots are switched off, with their code kept.
  • A glow under your tank in the colour of your power-up, and a puff of stars when it runs out.
  • A jet of water from a broken hydrant, and thinner smoke from your own damaged tank.
  • The Bruiser retuned.
  • The camera stays level, with no up-and-down look.
