Hey all!

v1.2 is out now and brings some major changes including:

• A new movement mechanic that can be used throughout the game
• An entire new level!
• Polish to existing levels and features

Read on to see whats new in more detail

Bunny hopping!

The new movement mechanic added to the game is bunny hopping! By using the scroll wheel just before landing from a jump, you will perform a bunny hop. When bunny hopping, you won't lose any horizontal speed so you can pair it with fling stars to perform very long jumps.

Performing a bunny hop.

Bunny hopping will maintain your speed from fling stars.

Bunny hopping is not like regular jumping however as it won't refill your double/triple jump, since you're not on the ground for long enough. This makes the mechanic more of an advanced skill that should only be used in the right circumstances. It isn't required to beat the main game at all, but it will help you go faster and it feels awesome!

New level!

By completing the game, you can unlock a new, bonus level; The Floating Ruins! Climb though a tricky set of floating islands and ruined structures. The level brings new mechanics such as platforms that will fall almost instantly after you stand on them, wind that can be used to glide upwards and areas designed to test your bunny hopping skills.

Fragile platforms and windy areas.

The level has areas and challenges designed around bunny hopping.

To play this new level, you must have first finished the game. The button to start the new level will appear the next time you press "New Game" on the main menu. This level restricts you to basic movement, bunny hopping and gliding; You can't double or triple jump here.

Visual updates to existing levels

The fist level and parts of other levels have received a bit of polish. They no longer look and feel as empty.

The visual updates aren't exclusive to the first level. Other levels have been updated slightly.
