Gatlin' - The Delightful Update

6 Dec, 2024

Gatlin' - The Delightful Update (V1.2.0)

Additional eye candy for your neverquenching eyes.

Introducing... death!!

A wise man once said, "DUDE, I just spent 84 minutes on this GODFORSAKEN boss fight. Why did it just END? Why couldn't I see the boss SUFFER as it faded away into the ETERNAL abyss we all slowly march towards? I DESERVE that much, I GAVE you $4.99."

I'm not your therapist, in fact, I'm probably the opposite of one with what I offer you. Anyhoo - sure! All bosses now have some form of death animation. Now go feel accomplished, sport. Pop off. Slay. 💅🌟

Moisten your eyes!

A second wise man, no relation, once said, "DUDE, why do I have to fight The Beholder EVERY time I battle Art? What is WRONG with you? Seriously, I'm earnestly asking. How do you sleep at night?"

Still not your therapist, nor are you mine - keep that Gatlin-related trauma to yourself. Anyhoo - OK! Blot's childhood friend found eyedrops. If you can find him and collect the eyedrops, you can easily cast off The Beholder. The average monthly 0 players of Gatlin' PLEASE cry out in joy! 👏👏👏

A new level modifier - One Life!

I nerfed the Beholder. I nerfed Art. Do you still want a challenge? This level modifier, with an accompanying achievement, gives you the gift of playing through the entire main game with one life. If you die, you start over at the first level. How generous! How replayable!

A new level modifier - John Gatlin!

Continuing my streak of philanthropy, have another challenge. In the "John Gatlin" level modifier, you only get standard ammo and must run the entire main game for achievement or self-loathing purposes. No blitz, no pogos, and no suction. As a silver lining, I've replaced all boulders with poppable balloons. How quaint! I am nothing if not benevolent.

Painstakingly Godawful Achievements!

Three new achievements. One for finding the eyedrops and two for beating the game with the new level modifiers. You want to earn 100% of Gatlin's achievements? Nah.

Gatlin' - The Easy Update

20 Jan, 2023

Gatlin' - The Easy Update (V1.1.0)

More content, more QoL, less throwing your keyboard against the wall. Guaranteed.

Introducing... Easy Mode!

We get it, Gatlin' is a hard game - that's intended, not a bug. However, our Chief Balance Officer (me) and Head Intern (also me) have been bickering back and forth for nearly three years now about making the game easier.

Long story short, the Head Intern decked the CBO and stole his computer. We have Easy Mode now.

While Easy Mode is enabled:

Blot can take two additional hits before dying horribly. That's right, his suffering is prolonged and even worse - you horrible, horrible, person.
Boss achievements cannot be earned

A new level modifier - Tumbleweed!

It's goofy, it's silly - it's... actually quite difficult. Pair this with Easy Mode for a unique experience.

Entirely Organic Achievements!

Continuing the streak of more achievements, here ya go - three new ones. Something about a vacuum, a boss-related redacted one, and... WHAT!? BLOT WITH A FACE!?! WHAT SORT OF HERESY IS THIS!? SOMEBODY CALL THE CBO - oh wait...
