Night Update (Version 1.3) Coming 11/21!


NEW NIGHT LEVEL!

Hey everyone, I wanted to give everyone a small gift before Thanksgiving begins this week: I'm excited to announce that the latest update to ComboCrush is almost ready to release! We originally wanted to have a Night level when we made this game for the Game Jam. Unfortunately, we had to cut it out due to time constraints. But over the past month, we went back and developed the Night level, where you have to escape to the underground tunnel within the time limit.  Alongside that, we've made several changes to improve the quality of life/gameplay experience, and added some bonus features. 


MORE MUSIC!

Another exciting announcement is that we collaborated with Cerulean Cyanide to compose "PITCH-BLACK TOAST", the song used for the upcoming launch trailer. It can be selectable for the Day level from the new EXTRAS menu in the Title Screen. Alongside her song, there are 2 new songs that can be played during the Day level: Ride the Rails by Crow Wanderer, and Heartbreak Blues by Christian Surrett. The Night level of course features its original theme, carried over from the development cycle. A music video for "PITCH BLACK TOAST" will release alongside the launch of the game.


EXTRAS MENU!

From the Title Screen, you can now select the Extras menu, which has two bonus features:

  • MUSIC SELECTION - Switch out the normal Day theme with 3 alternate tracks: "PITCH BLACK TOAST," "Ride the Rails", and
    "Heartbreak Blues".
  • GALLERY  - View a selection of Concept Art of the game, including early designs, scrapped concepts, and more! 


AND THAT'S NOT ALL!

There are several more minor tweaks made to the game. The entire list of all the changes made will be released alongside the launch of the update, Tuesday November 21st.
