v.1.1 - Whoosh and Veer


There's so many things i wanna add to this lil game but the main things at the moment are polish.

With this update, I've added the comic book/manga "whoosh" lines at the corner of the screen that indicate that you're going super fast. They're even responsive to the speed - the higher your base speed, the longer they get and if you pick up multiple coffees in a row, they also get longer. If anybody finds them intrusive, lemme know and I can add a switch to turn them off.

I'm also introducing a new "veer" mechanic. I really like doing sharp turns sometimes and I wanted to add a lil bit of extra tension by adding a risk-reward mechanic around it. You can now do a sharp turn (if you're successful, you'll see dust being kicked up... because sure, that's definitely how snakes work). When you do, you get a very short window where you can score extra points by increasing your multiplier by 0.3 for 1s.  In other words, if you manage to do a sharp turn riiiight before picking up a banana, you get extra points without picking up extra speed from the coffee. Just be careful not to zig-zag into yourself by doing that.


That's it. Please leave a comment if you enjoy this game or this update.
