title: "v0.12.0: the Azulian Tag Update" |
|||
date: 2022-03-27T15:39:21-07:00 |
|||
draft: false |
|||

|||
A new beta release of _Sketchy Maze_ is now available. This release brings a |
|||
lot of new features to the level editor, such as a Text Tool and Flood Fill |
|||
Tool, and adds a couple new levels for a game mode called "Azulian Tag." |
|||
|
|||
In Azulian Tag, the player who is "It" (that's you) needs to avoid being |
|||
tagged by the enemy characters, most of which are Azulians. The Azulians |
|||
on these maps have an infinite aggro radius and will chase after the player |
|||
no matter how far away you are! To get the gold medal high score, you need |
|||
to find the secret exit hidden in each level. Otherwise, you're awarded a |
|||
silver high score based on how long you survive until one of the Azulians |
|||
catches you! |
|||
|
|||
 |
|||
|
|||
## New Level Editor Features |
|||
|
|||
Some new drawing tools are added: |
|||
|
|||
* The **Text Tool** makes it easy to stamp text messages onto your level, |
|||
choosing from one of the built-in fonts (including the Azulian language |
|||
font!) and using any of your level's colors. |
|||
* The **Flood Tool** implements a paint bucket to replace contiguous |
|||
regions of your drawing with a new color. |
|||
* The **Pan Tool** lets you easily scroll your level viewport with your |
|||
left mouse button or finger swipe on mobile. This is especially useful |
|||
for devices with touch screens so you can avoid accidentally editing |
|||
your level when you just wanted to scroll it! |
|||
|
|||
New **Game Rules** can be customized on your level to change the game's |
|||
default behaviors, including: |
|||
|
|||
* A **Difficulty** setting that can adjust the way enemy mobs behave. |
|||
On Peaceful, enemies ignore the player and do no harm. On Hard mode, |
|||
enemies become more aggressive, such as the Azulians having an |
|||
infinite aggro radius and run at the player at level start! |
|||
* The **Survival Mode** rule changes the meaning of "high score" for |
|||
the silver medal tier: you're awarded for _how long_ you survive before |
|||
dying rather than how quickly you beat the level. On these levels, the |
|||
gold tier for finding the Exit Flag unscathed is still awarded for |
|||
fastest time finding the flag. |
