Demo Release Notes - Build 12 (Demo version 0.3.1)

Hello everyone!

Has been a while since the last update here on itch.io, but here we are with the updated Astra: Fading Stars demo (v0.3.1)!

Before anything else, we want to seriously thank you all for your feedback, support and play-testing, we've come a long way since the original 0.1.x versions and it wouldn't have been possible without you!

We also want to welcome all the new players and encourage everyone, who's already played any of the 0.2.x or 0.1.x versions (the version is visible on bottom right corner of the main menu), to checkout out this update too as it finally includes story elements!

Now, without further ado - here are the patch notes for v0.3.x:

• Main story line is now integrated in the demo . You'll get to know things from Celina's (the main character) background, the villains of the game your role and your main purpose in the game.
• NPC character providing optional hints and advise during your journey in the Astral Cave.
• Cutscene from an area further in the game with a very strong story connection - no spoilers here!
• One time tutorial scene on movement, fighting and jumps when playing the game for the first time - we may change this to be always playable when starting a new game (skipable of course) in a future patch.
• Improved map navigation and clarity. The space layout is now more intuitive and easier to navigate.
• Clearer available actions and interactions.
• Graphics enhancements.
• Music enhancements.
• As always, a couple of bug fixes, including the one where in some rare cases the player would get a smaller hitbox and step further into the ground when changing scenes while ducking.

That's all for now, we hope you are as excited as we're for the full release of the game!

See you around ~~
