October 18th Weekly Update (Patreon)

I worked on a few things this week.  

First based on some feedback I took some time to add back in a sort of casual/god mode.  its available in the options menu, and it will make all the enemies non aggressive.  

UNLESS you attack them, then they will attack you back.  It can be toggled on and off at any time, and be aware that the enemies might have some strange behaviours when it is on. (Technically, all it does is blind and deafen them, so they respond poorly to some stimulus when its active).

While I was making this adjustment, I noticed that some of the control layout pages were a little out of date, so I went ahead and updated those a bit.  I don't expect I'll have to change them too much more!

The last thing I wanted to show off is a test I did above.  I've been slowly making adjustments so that some spells will replace your aimed and/or melee attacks.

Above is a test of this. (Unfinished test)  Summoning the storm temporarily replaces the pistol with bolts of lightning that strike down.  I imagine the completed storm would take a few moments to manifest, and you'd either get a limited amount of time, or a limited amount of strikes before it disappeared.  

I'd like the magic to end up a mix of spells that are one off use, and spells that act as a temporary weapon.   Some of these will end up replacing existing spells.

I don't want to focus too much on this, so I'll try to add these abilities slowly. 

Thanks so much for your support, and stay safe, everyone!
