BackSlash Update 1.2

Mar 14, 2018

BackSlash - Update note 1.2

Dear BackSlashers

It took a while to update since I work on a new game, but here is a small update!
A very quick brush up, a new quick match map and a bunch of things I wanted to fix for a long time. I got some precious feedback from a lot of
players and I am considering it seriously. BackSlash can be improved in many ways !

Content

Added "Caves", a new map for the quick match mode.
The chicken now has a rare chance to be replaced by the Duck. The Duck attacks and explodes, but his meat gives a permanent melee damage buff. This actually is a collaboration we planned with our buddy Landon Podbielski, a great guy and the creator of Duck Game.

Features
The AI level can now be selected (I,II,III) with the Up button, from the clan selection menu. AI level tweaks delays between input actions time and "breaks" that the AI takes, attacking range precision, etc... The AI also has a (super simple) "secret" perk that affects his general behavior.
Chinese beta translation is now available ingame. Huge thanks to Anjet Hsu for his translation.

Rework / Balance
Reworked the Blade Whistle clan passive,"Iron Storm" as it was too random, and killed the fun. Casting a spell now creates a spirit blade that sticks around the Blade Master. When he gets midlife, all his spirit blades are lit and ready.
At the next spell he casts, all the blade will be projected forward one at a time.The Blade Master's tactic is now to cast as many spells as possible and survive with high HP, giving him a peak of power in midgame. It forces his enemies to be very agressive on the early game or bet all on a reliable late game.
To counterbalance the OP passive, Blade master has a bit less base HP and move speed.
Power Spheres deals slightly more damage (on defensive spheres and energy wall)
Fluid bursts (Power Clap and Bull Clap) cause more damage.
The final boss was slightly nerfed.

Fixed bugs
The blade whistle passive would sometimes not even work.
A rare bug would sometimes critically block a fighter forever. It should be fine now.
When a fighter was in rage state, the other fighter's animation was not working.
Replaced two reversed text entries into settings.
Missing Korean entries added.

Polishing
Added music or jingles in menus here and there.
The joypad now works in menus.

Dear players,

I am so happy to finally release BackSlash.

My name is Thomas Olsson, I am the one-man team behind this game.
I worked very hard for a year on it in Skeleton Crew Studio, a small company made of incredible people who gave me their high experience, human qualities and talent.

They brought BackSlash and me here, and I am very excited to see how things goes !
It is my first game, and I am very motivated indeed. I plan to do various updates and to add things over time if all goes well.

Enjoy!

BackSlash

Any plans for 4 player?

Thanks for such a great game!

I left a positive review on the store page where I say in detail what I like about it, but this is really fun to play and I believe it will be active in my Steam library for quite some time! I hope this game gets more attention. To the dev, you might want to send a copy of it to the Super Best Friends, as I think they would enjoy it, and they have tons of viewers of their Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSw1tcher...

the controls are not explained

The game is fine, but it only tells you how to attack and jump i had no idea wall jumping was a thing, nor how to use the grappling hook's clans move. or how to cast specific moves (uppercut/throwing the enemy seems to work randomly+slam dunking). how do you trigger the extra jump when landing? how do you trigger the extra spikes of the bone clan? how does the leaps work? the ai player knows how to do them but i have no idea is there a difference between being Bone Blades or Whistling Shards? i shouldn't ...
