Happy first anniversary to Herald of Havoc! To celebrate this special occasion, I'm releasing a new patch containing major visual upgrades, enhanced sound effects, a new enemy type for survival mode, and an entirely new level!
I hope you'll enjoy it :)
- Zeldars

New:

- Added a little bit of spice in E3M4 - Cursed Town
- Added a new enemy in survival mode (more info in the survival section)
- Added a new level: the Military Zone



This level will replace the current E1M2, the latter is still playable in the "Extra Levels" menu

Improvements:

- Weapons got a visual update! Here's some examples for comparison (new visuals are on the right):



- All enemies got a visual update! Again, here are some comparisons:



- Some levels got a visual update and E1M1's gameplay has been tweaked a little bit
- You can now visibly see the guards holding the keys in E3M1 - Hide and Seek
- Lower tier enemies now have more sound effects when killed
- Bullet based weapons sound more impactful when hitting enemies
- You can now delete a save file by pressing 'Del' on the keyboard
- You can now visibly see cracks on Skeleton, Metal Colossus, and drone when they are badly damaged

Survival mode:

- Endless mode renamed to Survival mode
- Added a new special enemy for survival mode: The Unstable drone!



It's like a regular drone... except it explodes when killed, dealing big damage to enemies while you don't take any damage from its explosion! It's like a flying explosive barrel. Enemies hit by the explosion take full damage regardless of the distance between them and the explosion

Balance changes:

- Metal Colossus's homing projectiles now disappear a little bit faster

Bug fixes:

- Fixed the jump keybind not being rebindable
- Fixed a bug where you could pick up an health pickup while at 100 HP
- Fixed a bug in E3M4 where entering the pool of blood would sometimes make you bounce
- Fixed a bug where the Shotgun's muzzle flash would stay on forever
