What's New in the Build?

This update focuses on polish and improvements to many visual aspects of the game, mostly to do with animations.

The new additions include:

Visuals:

- Updated Player character movement sprites. There's now new sprites for each "Other Step"

- Extra animations for the wall and door prisoner type.

- Extra animation for getting free of the golems binds.

- Extra shield shimmer on the suspended prisoner when the crystals imprisoning them are destroyed.

Gameplay and UI:

- Updated the gallery with two new lore entries - Slime Monsters and Doorway Prisoners.

- Improved the gallery when a section has nothing to show.

- Added a "Are you sure?" window to the options menu exit game button.

- Added a "Are you sure?" window starting a new game when you have an existing save file.

- Swapped the "Continue" and "New Game" buttons around so continue is the highest of the options.

- Added additional sound effects around the game.

- Health and Willpower States act correctly between levels now. You start each level with full health.

- Slimes can now spawn at any of the three sizes instead of all starting at the smallest.

Completing floor 5 and starting a new floor wont crash the game now. It'll just repeat floor 5.

Requirements & How to Install:

Playable on a PC using a Windows OS.

The game will boot up full screen and set to your monitors native resolution.

You can now change the resolution in the options menu to an adjustable windowed mode where you can set it to your preference.

To Install it:

- Download the zip file

- You MUST unzip all the contents of the zipfile to any folder. The game cannot run from inside the zipped file.

- Windows can unzip it by itself. You don't need to download any third party software like WINRAR.

- You can run the demo by entering the unzipped folder and double clicking on the file named: The Bindmancer

Common Install Issues:

- Delete all prior files from previous versions / public demo if you're installing to the same folder location.

- If you don't unzip the contents of the folder, you can't play the game.

- If the game opens and then closes without a screen showing, that's typically a graphic driver issue, update your graphics cards drivers and restart your pc.

- Unity games don't like being placed in folders deeply nested in multiple folders. This is due to long file directory names messing with Unity. 3 to 5 folders deep is fine. More and it gets wonky.

- If controls don't respond = It's probably a controller you have plugged into or connected to your computer. Remove it to use Keyboard controls.
