I just uploaded a new release of my arcade action game, Wrangle, Warp and Weep.

There were a lot of interface changes on the start screen.

Old => New

=>

  • I've been replacing grids with button groups lately in order to save choices in the skin. This time, it allowed me to move the satellite selection to the left without an annoying scrollbar.
  • All of the important stuff is in now the top-left part of the screen where English readers are likely to look. It's green and the rest is cryogenic blue.
  • The Top Ten section is now displayed with labels instead of a grid in order to stretch better. This removes the ability to place BYOND avatars, but I doubt anyone will care.
  • The Top Ten and Records sections are now in the same tab control. The last score is now the title of the Records tab for a handy comparison.
  • I added a tab for medals. Titles and descriptions are always displayed. Medal images are displayed for earned medals. The rest have a filler image.
  • I tried to remove as many words as I could and use icons so people won't feel they have to read.

The help file has been separated into tabs so players won't have to scroll for ages when searching. It now includes a table of controls to taunt the poor brain in a jar. You may have noticed a new option to cease launching satellites when tapping forward. This is because players can now launch with either the space bar or numpad 5. I also added QEZC and UOM. diagonals for WASD and IJKL controls respectively.

Some of the enemy graphics were updated. Voyeurs ignore a wrangler's shields so I tried to make it more obvious by giving them shields of their own. Meanwhile, Screamers can't harm a player directly so I made them transparent and less white.

I unchecked the BYOND Membership bonus box on the hub entry. The lone avatar the skin displays probably isn't worth the Dream Seeker delay to players.
