Hello All,<\/p>\n

We just posted an update to our game Shadow Fencer Theatre<\/a>, our final update before moving on to Post-Jam stuff (assuming no more bugs). \u00a0We listened to feedback and realized that the controls were not very intuitive, and people were getting stuck. \u00a0So, in this update we added vertical movement to the swords, as well as an in-game control list for those who don’t like to read the text below the screen.<\/p>\n

\"controls\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We hope people do not feel that this update is outside of the scope of a jam update. \u00a0We felt that if people were having difficulties playing, we needed to address it before moving on. \u00a0Like, it’s still way janky, but it’s better. \u00a0We have a patch notes section on our page, which shows what we have done, with a note on the patch notes stating we want you to rate us how you feel we should be rated. \u00a0Meaning, if you don’t like the control change, then just play the game only moving the sword left and right.<\/p>\n

We have lots of ideas for continuing post jam, and will post a bit more here. until then, check out our game.<\/p>\n
