I added Hollow Remastered in itch.io with fixed bugs and better boss fight! Come Check it out!
Since Hollow the Series is in itch.io, why not add the remastered in there too?
And I also found a bug on the player that I fixed some things in the code:
Bug 1 — player.ms line 276 (This is the attack/death bug someone mentioned on discord)
The killed_by_enemy_tile variable was being re-assigned mid-expression with = instead of just being OR'd together:
// BROKEN — the flyer check overwrites the whole variable!
... or killed_by_enemy_tile = check_collision(...).startsWith("flyer")
// FIXED
... or check_collision(...).startsWith("flyer")
This caused the flyer enemy death check to clobber the enemies/dragon checks, making player death detection unreliable.
Bug 2 — particles_playerprojectiles.ms line 276 (Particles never faded)
// BROKEN — p.life / p.life is always 1.0, so alpha never changes
screen.setAlpha(p.life / p.life)
// FIXED
screen.setAlpha(p.life / p.max_life)
Particles were fully opaque for their entire life and then just vanished — they never faded out smoothly.
Bug 3 — helpers.ms line 53 (Undefined variable)
// BROKEN — 'check' is not defined anywhere
if range_multiplier == check then ...
// FIXED
if range_multiplier == nil then ...
check was never declared, so this guard for a missing argument was effectively broken.
AND I fixed and improved the boss battle in level 10!
Here are the updates:
WAY better arena and no surprise attacks!
More attack types for the boss!
and wayy more!
Come check it out! :)
