RE: [Cosmosdex] : 4/7 Redux is coming
04-08-2017, 09:06 PM
The redux is finally open and ready to be updated at a steady pace! Here's a list of some cool new features that got added!
New Features
- 2 new "flashes" (They're just videos)!
- Rodney Ootkins can now be named whatever you want! (Within length reason)
- Apollo remembers your name if you tell him. (Within length reason)
- Apollo will insult you sometimes based on your name.
- Apollo will remember if you told him your name, go back to tell him again, and then tell him "I don't have a name", and will call you out on this fact.
- New sleek design, wow!
- You can actually highlight and copy text that is in the text box!
- You can highlight nearly any text you see! (except in a few select places) The future is now!
- A save system, save your game, set it to autosave ect ect
- If you use your left and right arrow keys you can automatically go back and forth between pages! Note, some pages do not allow you to move forward because there are important choices on the page. Also note, arrow keys have a 2 second delay on them to prevent server overloads by someone holding the arrow key down.
- The main menu pages are actually interactive. But only semi.
- Loading screens now draw from a pool of tips and randomly display one to you! Meaning very few people will see the same tips in the same order.
- Somethings are different depending on your seed number!
- A boring comic map!
- Choices that are remembered!*
____________________________________
There are a few bugs / issues that will be fixed very soon, I will now list them.
Bugs and issues
- Current tip pool is extremely small, will be adding more very soon.
- There is no About section at the moment.
- There is suppose to be an area where you can make a new custom cookie in the case of accidental deletion. That is not a thing yet but will be done in a week or so.
- Apollo will not ask you if you want to submit your name to be customly insulted at this moment.
- The 2nd "Flash" has a 1 minute loading screen. Aka you have to sit there for 1 minute and then it auto plays. There's no actual loading indicator for this but I'll be looking to put one in soon. Just sit at the screen for 1 minute and it'll play.
- There's no "Mobile" versions for the 2 "flashes" yet.
- Apasem has 2 extra arms in his talk sprites.
- God knows there's a spelling error I just haven't seen yet.
Things that are not a Bug or Issue
- Videos look weird on internet explorer. | Fight internet explorer about that.
- The Fortuna comic isn't mobile friendly like the rest of the site. | Intentional Fortuna just isn't a good comic to read on small mobile devices. Did make it tablet being held sideways friendly though.
Hope you guys enjoy the redux! Please submit ANY bugs or errors you see to this topic! I would like to fix as many errors as possible before they become bigger issues later on.
* May or may not do anything but cause a light to be a different color at the end of Fortuna.
