Orientation program instated for new and confused Underworlders

Professor Onion here! Reporting from Torment Labs ~ a division of the Schadenfreude network.

First update with new content for a bit (rather than quality of life fixes) I’m looking forward to making that the case going forward. The new stage, ‘Just Pull For it’, is all about grabbing grapple points to move the trap around the level. I think it turned out pretty good! Lemme know what you think.

📝Patch notes

Onboarding

– I’m in the game! I give a quick primer for new players after character selection.
– Starting the Hellevator requires using it’s grapple-point. No more jumping in by mistake.

Stages

– New stage, Just Pull For It!
– Get To The Chopper removed (it was retooled into Edge Lords in the previous update).
– Pressing Affairs renamed to Locomotion. Narrow & Marrow renamed to Pressing Affairs.
– Geometry adjusted in Pressing Affairs.
– Platforms added to Hot & Bothered.
– Bone Yard stages sorted by difficulty.

Items

– The Wrecking Ball is now the Iron Maiden, look at this goober.
– Iron maidens rebound off the edge of the screen rather than wrapping.
– Item drop chances adjusted.

Visuals

– Trick-hooks are shown as long as they’re active. You’ll be able to turn this off in the options in a future update.

That’s it this time, Bomb Pig loves you! ~ ❤
