| Upcoming PISTOLA update | 2024-03-29 | Upcoming PISTOLA 1.3.0 I always talk about PISTOLA as a game we're ashamed of. We thrive to make games we'd like to play regardless of playtime and the niche it fills, so why weren't we treating this one as such? After a really honest, well made and insightful review, I cloned the PISTOLA repo and started doing some changes. The performance issue specifically, are a well-known one and multiple people have reported. I had no idea what was done there but I didn't expected it was that bad (my fault, though!) So, the first step was reworking the enemy code. If an image worths a thousand words, a video worths even more. Here's a before/after with |
| PISTOLA on MacOS/Linux & our official Discord server | 2022-08-24 | Howdy! We're passing by just to tell you folks we're releasing PISTOLA for MacOS and Linux/SteamOS! This also includes an update (for Windows as well) that is meant to fix performance issues. For the macOS version, since it's Cuca's main OS, we're making sure our games works just fine for those using Apple's computers! We can't guarantee the same for Linux since none of us are a heavy linux user. We had some testers to guarantee everything is working, but we can't ensure the game will work for every distribution as we do for Windows and MacOS. We also opened our discord server! You can talk directly to us there and follow our game updates at: |
| Patch 1.2.1: QoL improvements and "infinite" content | 2022-08-13 | We just released a new quality of life update, fixing bugs, and improving the late game. One of the major changes is definitely the new enemy creation algorithm, that previously stopped on the latest enemy we drew (which is quite boring, to be honest), now the game will loop through the list of enemies infinitely, making'em stronger each time the algorithm loops. New enemy creation algorithm New random buffed enemies (1% of chance to spawn) Merchant countdown timer on the top-right of the screen Increased base coin drop chance (45% to 50%) Thanks for playing, enjoy the new updates! |
