Camera Plus & performance, demo updated.
A fairly simple update this time but one that drastically improves the action scenes.
The look ahead feature, quite cool right? Also rather janky?
Well after (a quite a lot of) fiddling, I replaced my script with the Camera Plus plugin by KirbyKing186, it’s now much smoother, it doesn't get confused and most importantly, offers a performance boost across all platforming areas. A substantial improvement to how the game feels! It's particularly noticeable on Los (the water world), which has some enemies that are quite CPU intensive.

I've also tweaked the player gravity a little, jump heights remain the same, but the player feels more weighty. Additional hints and log entries for quests have been added and various little fixes throughout.
Aside from this, with the game more or less complete and having freed up a decent chunk of space, I've entered into what feels like a quite enjoyable period of the games development. All the key scripts are done so I can simply call again to add content more quickly and I can add fun things from my To Do list, that I'd been holding back on due to a lack of space, as well as generally polishing things up.
I've updated the demo with the latest camera changes.
