2.5b

Spoiler:

*COMPLETED REQUEST regarding the camera system ( wrapping is allowed now)
Requested by : "the underminer"

*UPDATED physics module , now marble goes a bit faster , but the controls remain
still accurate , and they won't make your life harder with "puzzles".

*UPDATED stacked particle system for smoother animation

*UPDATED session cache manager , and now the load times while you switch menu-related session
are improved.

*UPDATED an input event in the tutorial mode

*Plus more not-so-worth to mention

2.5

Spoiler:

*NEW PHYSICS MODIFIER - No gravity ( 95% complete )
{
the 5% missing , is :
I have to complete the out-of bounds routine that has effect once right
after the map is loaded.

}
*(COMPLETED REQUEST)UPDATED camera( "full" 360o rotations are allowed now ( 90o / animated step ) )
{
Received request by : "Punk777E" , and "pspjoke"
}
*UPDATED tutorial mode with the new camera controls
*UPDATED the geometry of some levels that had low-res textures
*UPDATED the input system(no more timed execution is used in order to make 100% syncing with the menu SFX & controls.
Gameplay isn't effected)
*UPDATED the audio module
*UPDATED the controls
*UPDATED the physics module
*PORTALS are now 100% complete and fully working(can interact with any dynamic object without limits)
*ADDED SFX TRIGGERS for portals
*MORE SUPPORT FOR "PUZZLES" : Once you fail , the dynamic objects that are out of bounds will come back into play
*Added + 5 levels
*Some misc optimizations
*And many more

2.0

Spoiler:

-ADDED SAVE POINTS! (once you pick a crystal , that is , it becomes your save point and you can continue from there if you ...FAIL!)
-Updated a bit the camera system
-Normalized the movement of the marble
-Reworked on level "A real challenge". Now even a beginner can actually play on this level...but
the tricky "puzzle" is still there ;-).
-Added one new level : "Made of glass"(this one is easy enough , but with really unique style!)
-Updated the code that detects if the player is inside the map bounds.
Now , its instant , since you don't have to completly fall off the whole world ,
but instead , the closest node's normalized position is picked , so its "instant".

Level packs:

Spoiler:

Level packs will be released SOON. STAY TUNED.
