MAJOR HOOT ETERNAL UPDATE
- Added a main menu, with a level select, class select, it's own theme song, and much more.
- Added a CLASSES system to HOOT ETERNAL
- Each class has different stats (Health, Speed, Passive Skills, Active Skills). You can see all of this in the HOOT ETERNAL Main Menu.
- Four classes are currently available:
The Factory-New,
The Agile,
The Tank, and
The Reckless.
- Selecting a class DOES NOT override your customization options.
- A class quick-switcher is also available in-game by pressing Esc and selecting the desired class in the menu on the top.
- The
Revolver now has a unique shooting animation and a slight remodel.
- The
Dynamites now have a unique throwing animation.
- Remade the explosion particles and reduced the clutter they caused.
- Added an "Autorun" option (Run by default, Walk by holding shift) to the settings menu. Works outside of HOOT too!
- Melee Rewrite
- Melee attacks are more consistent now.
- Added Melee damage randomization, like the other weapons.
- In addition to this, Melee attacks now have a 10% chance of being a Crit, dealing 1.35x damage, indicated by a yellow damage number.
- Improvements to the HUD
- Shortened "HEALTH" as "HP".
- Changed "TIME" and "KEYS" to icons.
- Removed "WEAPON" text and lowered the sprite to accommodate.
- Overhauled the Crosshair, it now represents the accuracy of your weapon rather than simply being a static image.
BASE GAME CHANGES

- Added a FOV slider and a "Show Controls" button to the Settings menu.
