Hope you're enjoying the holidays and have been able to relax! Between seeing family and developing a crippling Marvel Snap addiction, I've been working hard on Infinity Girl. A lot of the features I'm working on for the upcoming, full alpha version are now in an updated version of the demo, and I want to share it with you all first! I give you... The Mountain™ update.

The demo is now live on Steam, and features a ton of new features:

• The Mountain: The demo starts off with a brand new set of 3 downhill outdoor levels set on the side of a mountain. I had to rewrite the procedural generation for these levels, and I'm really pleased with where they are at now!
  
• Death Boons™: When you die, choose from a range of abilities you carry over to your next run
  
• Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze times for each level
  
• Dodge rolls! Double tap the bank buttons (L or R trigger/A+D keys) to jump out of the way of oncoming obstacles
  
• New abilities: Microgravity, "slippery" rails that make you go super fast and more!
  
• VASTLY improved movement: I completely overhauled dashing, banking and other movements in the game so they feel much smoother, more fluid and responsive
  
• Speedometer so you can see exactly how ludicrously fast you're going
  
• Changed colors of speed hoops, coins and other good items to blue (instead of yellow since that was too close to the red/orange I use for obstacles that can kill you)
  
• MANY optimizations and bug fixes, especially on the procedural generation (which was pretty buggy in the last demo).

Huge thanks to everybody who streamed the game and/or reported bugs in the Infinity Girl discord... which you should totally join[t.co] to get the upcoming alpha in early 2023.

Happy speeding everybody! Enjoy.

Hey everybody! Just in time for the Dreamhack Festival on Steam, a BIG new Infinity Girl demo just dropped. It's basically a free mini roguelike at this point: 7 levels of hypnotic, high-speed goodness. I'm using these demo updates to test new features that will go into the game's alpha version -- would love your feedback! There is a LOT new stuff in this version including:

• A new set of outdoor levels (which feature a slick new procedural level generation system that lets me place obstacles, rails, coins and other objects across huge spaces)
  
• Mario Kart-style drifting, including a "drift blast" when you let go of the drift button (I'm biased but this is my favorite addition -- so much fun to drift and boost around these levels)
  
• A new "Beat the clock" feature in every level that encourages you to go fast (by rewarding you with coins for getting to the goal more quickly).
  
• Less float-y physics and less slippery handling
  
• A second, advanced tutorial level to teach drifting, air banking and more
  
• Better controls (including smooth left and right banking when you hold the L/R triggers -- this helps landing tricky jumps)
  
• A few quality of life improvements for the streamers out there: volume controls and a windowed mode
  
• Performance improvements, especially reductions in level loading time
  
• Wider levels across the entire game: More space to drift, and less chances to fall to your death ☠️

As always, let me know what you think of the new additions in the Infinity Girl discord[discord.gg]. Thanks!
