Weekly Devlogs II: Week 5/6

Hey guys! A very, very sleep deprived Tyro here.

As you can tell, we've been gone again. However, I have some incredible news:

GYROGUN VERSION 1.0 IS NOW AVAILABLE!

ALLLLL of the changes we have been highlighting to such high degree up until now FINALLY make their debut! There's a lot of changes, many enough to where Kaiden will be taking over to give a rundown on the changelist. While I'm here though, I'll put out some highlights, and make sure you guys are up to date for what's next.

>New Levels!
FINALLY! The full suite of 20 total levels has now been added to GyroGun, with appropriate accommodations having been made for the main menu!

>Introduction of long-awaited mechanics
Ya like sawblades? How about explosive barrels? Oh, and boost pads of course. All of the obstacles, hazards and in-between pieces meant to make the new levels shine are now in full use, intentionally letting you get used to certain aspects of the game while providing the challenge of the rest of the levels!

>NEW BACKGROUND!
YES! NO LONGER SHALL I BE SHACKLED BY THE PALE BLUE OF YESTERDAY, FOR IT HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH SUCH GRACE THAT IT MAY NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN UNDERNEATH THE BEAUTY THAT IS AN ACTUAL BACKGROUND FOR THE GAME!
And I can't forget: The enemy animations made some time ago, as well as this new Background, has all been the hard work of a good friend of ours: Hannah Castaneda, aka SpecterBabii! Make sure to check them out here!: https://web-cdn.bsky.app/profile/specterbabii.bsky.social

What's Next?
As of this point, I am considering the game completed. This means the game has launched 3 months later than we intended, but..Hey, better late than never? I guess? That being said, we are still working on things! Over time Kaiden and I are progressively making changes to help polish things out, and to provide some extra features for better clarity over what is happening in-game, among other things. Do note that as far as we are aware, we will NOT be adding to gameplay mechanics or more levels(but do note that this is not an option we have ruled out entirely). 

I'm going to hand things off to Kaiden now. Until then, enjoy the game!
