Hey there, Knockback Community!

We're back with another exciting social media and content update for Project Knockback. This week, we've been focusing on expanding our reach, sprucing up our online presence, and doing some serious behind-the-scenes work to make our game even better. Let's dive into the details!

Social Media Explosion: We're Taking Over the Internet!

Itch.io Makeover: Looking as Good as We Play

Our Itch.io page needs a facelift! We're hard at work updating the visuals to better reflect the current awesomeness of Project Knockback. Soon, when new players stumble upon our game, they'll get an instant taste of the wild ride that awaits them!

Behind the Scenes: Building a Stronger Foundation

While it might not be as flashy as new characters or weapons, we've been putting in some serious elbow grease to improve the core of Project Knockback:

The Great Refactor

We've undertaken a massive refactoring of our entire codebase. This means cleaner code, better performance, and a solid foundation for all the crazy features we have planned for the future!

Out with the Old, In with the New

We've been reworking a lot of our older legacy code. This not only improves the game's stability but also opens up new possibilities for future updates. It's like we're giving Project Knockback a full tune-up!

Squashing Bugs Like Never Before

Our team has been on a bug-hunting spree, fixing various issues to ensure your Knockback experience is as smooth as possible. (And if you find any new bugs, let us know -- we love a good chase!)

What's Next?

All this behind-the-scenes work is setting the stage for some incredible updates in the near future. With our refactored code and streamlined systems, we'll be able to implement new features faster than ever before. Stay tuned for:

  • Eventually, a fully featured gameplay loop with endless enemy waves!
  • Expanded roguelike elements to amp up the replayability
