Last week was tweaks to Wasteland in response to our wonderful alpha tester who had some great insights into what could be improved with that level. Turned out great once we fixed it up

The other theme of this level is racing a bomb-rope, which is a lot of fun. Sometimes you'll clear a corner and see the rope ahead of you and think "oh shit I'm late" but with some speed you can usually catch up again

There's some cool stuff you can do with the Starter. For example, check out this bomb-surfing!
Also visible in the clip is a bit of bomb-climbing, which is essential to this map and another bit of code I'm pretty proud of.

So what is Wasteland?
For one thing, it's fucking HUGE. I think it's the biggest zone I've made yet. And there's a good reason for that! The theme here is using the Starter as a movement tool as well as a bomb-clearer. Lots of catapulting yourself around the map.

Wasteland is the first of 3 post-tutorial zones, each unlocking one portion of the finale. Each zone is themed (Wasteland, Docks, and Executive Zone) and encourages players to interact with the game in different ways.
Wasteland is my favorite of the 3, because it's a lot of movement tech.
