Toasterball 1.6.0: Electric Update

Here are the new features on this little update:

1. New variant: Electric Slabs

Description: Try not to get electrocuted! There’s a moving light bulb on the ceiling, and electric slabs on the floor. Every few seconds, an electric arc will appear between a random slab and the bulb, creating a deadly laser that you must avoid or you will explode! Yay, electrical hazard!

2. Dynamic music system

We added a new dynamic music system , that will add little varieties to the music depending of the variant you are in. Not all variants are covered but we tried it on the pong one (with an 8bits version of the main theme) and the ice one.

3. Secret codes

We implemented a secret code system you can access via the options menu. This will allow us to put secret unlockable stuff like toasters of your favorite twitch streamers, or secret modes to unlock. For now, let’s just say there’s little surprise in the dev letter on the start menu! (Also join our Discord for more codes!)

4. Other cool things

And then there’s the usual stuff: bug fixes, little tweaks on the physics system, etc. Amongst other things, here’s what we did:

• Fixed the basketball variant bug where the ball could go though the hoop and not trigger a goal,
• Added more bounce to the basketball so it’s easier to score,
• The ball will now accelerate way more as the point goes on,
• The ball should not get stuck sliding on the pong paddle anymore,
• The “Claustrophobia” variant (ceiling of death) should now last a little bit longer,
• The bomb ball will now explode faster and faster.
