- DIMENSIONAL SLAUGHTER UPDATE SIGMA 6.5 - THE AESTHETICS UPDATE - 18 May 2023
Initially, I didn't plan to release a new update for a while, I was planning to keep everything for version Sigma 7.0. But I ended up doing a bunch of changes that I honestly just couldn't keep waiting another several months, I wanted to release them NOW! So, here's version Sigma 6.5 adding them in. A lot of these are looks related, though there are also a bunch of other changes. Main changes: Added Object outlines Redid the ENTIRE color palette. Re-did Cultist Realm act 2 level design Gave Cancer act 1 and 2 a makeover Enemy spawns now telegraphed via lightning strikes Main UI no longer friendly pink and is now red Added the Mother Cycorpion, a larger and stronger version of the Cycorpion that jumps Enemy and object visibility improved heavily Re-did portal Graphics A bunch of other effects have been improved The rest: Player now has a shadow Cain's voice (Courtesy of Gianni Matragrano…
- Keybinds fix - 5 April 2023
After many months of hard work, sweat, blood and tears, I believe I have finally found the (Exceedingly obvious) roots behind all this game's input rebinding related issues. And so, all the previous issues relating to key rebinds should no longer be there. On top of this I've also done several smaller things. The screenshake slider no longer resets upon each level loaded Powerups should spawn more often now Shocker punching The Entity no longer sometimes leads to a locked fist Mechavore's weak point is a little more obvious now Nerfed the shocker punch distance upgrade Removed Herobrine Did some other smaller fixes
- Power Up Update - Sigma 6.3 - 21 March 2023
Small patch for now. The upgrades were supposed to appear in the next major update but that's gonna take a long time so I said "Screw it" and decided to add them in now. They only appear in difficulties under Expert, and have a 1/10 chance of appearing in a level, replacing a random ammo crate. The list includes: Speed Boost Infinite Ammo Infinite Shocker energy Invulnerability (Basically just Mario's Starman) You can see an example of one of them in action here. Disclaimer: The music used in the video is not used in the actual game. I've also improved the wall jump physics by increasing the height they give you, and I also lowered the wall slide gravity. I'm also considering just removing it entirely so the wall-slide just becomes a wall-run but we'll see. Various bugs have also been fixed, mainly the Dimension time being counted even during cutscenes. Oh yeah, and I added a screenshak…
- Tiny fix - 13 March 2023
Fixed an issue where the Crosshook was available in every level The portal's spawning location is now randomized in some levels
- Small movement changes + bug fixes - Dimensional Slaughter Sigma 6.2 - 12 March 2023
The last major update had quite positive reception, however there have been two major complaints: 1. The airborne velocity feels different, compared to previous versions it feels much harder to control especially after a wall jump. and 2. Key binds seem bugged, not persistent. In this update I have attempted to alleviate these issues. Key binds should be persistent now, and I've updated wall jump velocity to handle better. Along side this, I have also made some other changes related to player movement. Sliding down slopes now increases your speed, and sliding up slopes decreases it, albeit the decrease is slight. Upon hitting a ceiling, your upwards velocity is lost and you bounce off instead of staying against it Upon hitting a wall you rapidly lose your horizontal velocity, instead of keeping it and being stuck to the wall Let me know if you have any other feedback regarding player mo…
- Minor Update - Sigma 6.1 - 4 March 2023
Added: A better Weapon Wheel, you can choose the weapon by simply flicking the mouse rather than manually pressings a button Fixed a weapon wheel bug where it wouldnt work on certain areas Improved the default none-Shocker punch Added a button to reset the portal facility upon completion, for Leaderboard nerds Fixed multiple typos, corrected "Score" in the Leaderboard to "Time" Improved Wall jump velocity roll-off slightly Several other small bug fixes Let me know of any other changes I should be making! Hopefully I'll try to add them either in a small patch or the next major update.
- DIMENSIONAL SLAUGHTER MAJOR UPDATE - VERSION SIGMA 6.0 - 26 February 2023
Well, after a long wait the new major update is out now! Version Sigma 6.0. With this update, I have entirely re-done the Portal Facility, introducing Cain, The DimensionalDude, voiced by Gianni Matragrano. Cain is the game's new antagonist and will serve as a recurring boss. On top of this, I have added a new Dimension, "AERIAL ENTRAILS" set atop a blood-fueled airship from an apocalyptic future where robots have enslaved their human masters. But that doesn't matter. What matters is that THERE IS A GRAPPLE HOOK NOW! This is something I've been wanting to add for an extremely long time and I'm very glad I did, it turned out great. I'm sure you all will enjoy it a lot. And to even further this update, I have also added a leaderboard, a re-done UI and HUD (courtesy of my fried @BrepNir), an overhauled Cultist Executioner (Now called the Cultic Executioner), an improved Quickscoper (Now ti…

- DIMENSIONAL SLAUGHTER HOTFIX UPDATE SIGMA 5.2 - 28 October 2022
Fixed an issue where the UI would turn off during boss levels, creating a problem for new players trying to figure out how to defeat the bosses Fixed an issue where the audio sliders would reset to default after each new scene load Made some changes the blood effects Fixed various audio bugs Added new Particle effects Made some UI changes Sorry I could not upload this fix earlier, I had a lot on my plate.

- DIMENSIONAL SLAUGHTER Sigma 5.1 Update - 17 October 2022
I've been listening to feedback and have decided to make some changes. Cycorpions are now slower on Medium and Little Baby difficulties Improved Cycorpion visibility, the solar panels on their backs now glow blue making them hard to miss even in the dark. Doombas fire less and with slower speed bullets on Medium and Little Baby mode You can no longer shoot or hit portals. This now means you can do seamless portal transitions with the Shocker Punch You can now only walljump when side-ways next to a wall. I'm hoping this will make people realize walljumps aren't meant for spider-manning. Fixed an issue where enemies would clip with the floor in some levels of The Cancer. Did a minor re-design to most UI designs. A bigger one is planned later. Added a pixelization slider. Fixed a lot of issues with the options settings not working properly. You can change the color palette now. The blood p…

- DIMENSIONA SLAUGHTER SIGMA 4.1 PATCH NOTES - 5 October 2022
You guys have been letting me know about some issues recently, and as promised, I always try to make my game better. So here are some changes I made in response to your guys feedback. - Increased Shocker punch reach distance a bit, in order to hopefully result in less misses. - Made it so that if you fall out of bounds in the tutorial it teleports you back in. - Fixed an issue where reaching 10 upgrades would result in a softlock. - Fixed an issue where reaching the Cultist Realm secret level would result in not being able to choose an upgrade. - Gave the Mechavore a more obvious audio cue for when the weakpoint is exposed. - Made scorpions a bit taller, most of the time you don't even have to look down much anymore to shoot them, a forward shot with the shotgun often suffices. They also have decreased speed on normal and easy difficulty. - Added some more splash text. - Some other tiny…
- DIMENSIONAL SLAUGHTER SIGMA 4.0 - 1 October 2022
After a long time, you guys have finally managed to convince me to add an upgrade system. I've been hard at work this past week and with the help of my friend @BrepTheNir here it is! You can now choose an upgrade between each Dimension. Upgrades have rarity levels, going from Rare (Blue) to Radical (Purple) , and then "LEGENDARY" (Gold). You also have the option to instead opt for an extra life, or even skip the upgrade entirely if you prefer more of a challenge (Protip, the entire game WILL be beatable without upgrades) I also added a screen where you get to choose the next Dimension. Of course, there is still some randomness in the layouts and you don't get to choose the first Dimension. On top of that I've also done some smaller changes. I added a stat screen, buffed the Executioner and gave him a less flat look, made the sniper lower your sensitivity when scoped in, believe I fixed…
- DIMENSIONAL SLAUGHTER DEMO UPDATE SIGMA 3.1 - 25 September 2022
As promised, I have re-designed the revolver. As you can see, it is no longer ugly and generic. If you don't know what the old one looked like, here it is. Terrible. Glad that's gone. Anyways, onto the other patch notes: - FINALLY fixed the bug where people with an extra controller plugged in couldn't pause using esc. - Added fun Splash Text! - Re-did the health particles to be actual 3d objects instead of just crudely drawn 2d sprites. - Touched up one of the Cultist Realm act 1 Variations to make it look cooler - There is now a small sand waterfall sandfall there. I wanted to add more but couldn't figure out where. - Yeah that's about it. Be sure to add Dimensional Slaughter to your Wishlist, as early access is slated to release soon! Also feel free to join the Discord and follow us on Twitter if you haven't already.
- DIMENSIONAL SLAUGHTER SIGMA 3 - 19 September 2022
On top of what is covered in this video, I've also fixed a lot of bugs and added new small features. A few are: - Added wallslide particles and SFX for when you can walljump - Improved the tutorial - Fixed? An issue where you couldn't pause mid game if you had a controller plugged in. - Fixed a bug where upon startup vol would be set to 0 - Added a patch notes screen upon startup for older players who don't wanna replay the tutorial - Made one of the Cultist Realm levels look better - Removed Heroin Be sure to add Dimensional Slaughter to your Steam Wishlist, as the NextFest is coming up soon and that will greatly help me in getting this game noticed.
- DIMENNSIONAL SLAUGHTER DEMO ver. SIGMA 2.7 Patch - 5 September 2022
I've been working on some new content and reworks recently, such as a new way to get ammo via a new melee attack, the protagonist, a re-done revolver, re-done tutorial, and an upgrade system between Dimensions. I am hoping to release all that stuff before the NextFest. This update however is just mostly simple changes and fixes. I have: - Added a proper tutorial popup for the things that are hard to teach with 5 seconds of test-mid gameplay. Also because for some reason you guys can't seem to figure out what wall jump is. - Added Connor Adams top the credits as a composer. You can't hear his music yet though because that's not available in the demo however. - Added a border on UI elements - HUD now sways with the players movement - UI buttons now make sounds when pressed - There is now a start screen before your first play that allows you to change some settings before starting the tuto…
