I'm afraid yesterday's post was the last clip I could show off on a daily basis since I pretty much shown everything I've recorded.
Any new clips of my game at this point onwards would likely be revealed during the weekends. If I drew any art, I might share them on a weekday as well.

Another infected enemy!
Once they see you, they won't stop chasing where you are until they explode on contact! Don't get caught in their blast!

Mindfleas.
Small critters that can hop high enough to take control of their victims' minds.
Don't let one of these parasites get a hold of you.

Player Palettes.
Select a variety of colour palettes (some of which are copycats) to change the look of your character separate from the game's display palette.

Sword & Shield Power-ups
With the sword, you can stab your enemies with a quick thrust that even lets you hover in the air a bit.
With the shield, you'll be granted two extra hit points with reduced knockback.

The Dossier, or Codex.
It's where you can read up pages on every enemy, weapon, item, and location you've come across in the game.

Added extra info for the pause menu including kills, secrets, objective, and lives counters seen at the top.
I've also added a health bar for bosses, and an unique animation for getting a new weapon.

Breakable Falling Floors.
If you stand on one of them for too long, you'll fall down yourself!
Whacking down unstable floors will also force them to fall immediately and they can be destroyed with bombs.

Intro cutscene for the first boss battle.
I redesigned the sprites for the game's first boss and what better way to show it off than having it kick the old version out of the screen during a cutscene?

Long after I made that clip demonstrating the Cricket Bat Powerup, I've improved the animation for when the player slams the ground with it. Animation on the right is the latest.
