Bass Abyss 1.0 beta – Video preview

Hi. Yes, I know the next Bass Abyss is taking too long but it is totally worth it.

Here you can watch a video of the upcoming update. I won’t spoil anything so watch it yourself. If you want spoilers then read on.

There are so many changes. Most of them have been bug fixing, but there are two new major features:

– New playable character: Proto Man. He can deflect shots with his shields. Also, I gave him a modified buster, X4 style.

– Bass has two attack modes: Bass Buster and Directional Rapid fire. Yes, just like in Mega Man and Bass or Mega Man 10, on Directional mode Bass can shoot in seven directions. That is a HUGE advantage over the other characters considering he already has a double jump, but it’s too much fun so I really liked this feature even if it makes it too easy to play with him.

The core of this update has been bug fixing, and the results are huge. Months ago I was afraid that I had to live with some bugs but with the new knowledge I’ve acquired during these months, I decided to hunt them down and raise the quality of the engine. Most bugs and annoyances are gone and the game behaves the way you expect

All the major features in this preview are already functional. I just need to fix some little bugs I detected while capturing these clips. Once that is done, I’ll upload the new version!
