New in this release:

  • Added the "Demo" to the Catacomb Abyss shareware. The demo is a slideshow that originally served as a preview of the Catacomb Adventure series. It can be accessed via the menu or by pressing F10 in the opening screen.
  • Added the "Hints & Solutions" to the Catacomb Adventure series. The Hints & Solutions is a slideshow with top down maps of each level. It is only available in the GOG Catacombs Pack, so not in the shareware version. It can be accessed via the menu.
  • Adapted and improved the menu.
  • Added the option "Prevent softlock", to work around design flaws that can prevent the player from completing a level. Currently this impacts only the first level of Catacomb Armageddon. When enabled, upon entering the level a key and a door will change color.
  • Fix: pause chest pickup when menu, automap or scroll is displayed. Reported by @NeonVortex.
  • Fix: hide Catacomb 3D destructible walls on the top-down automap. Reported by @NY00123.
  • Fix: in the Catacomb 3D warp cheat, start level numbering at 1. Reported by NY00123.
  • Fix: resume music when closing the menu on automap or cheat dialog. Reported by NY00123.
  • Fix: in the Catacomb Adventure series, draw the statusbar numbers with tiles i.s.o. the regular font.
  • Fix: moved the central dot of the crystal sphere (radar), such that it matches with the original DOS game.
  • Fix: prevent mouse stutter when VSync is disabled. This bug was spotted in a recorded stream of Artyom Havok.
  • Fix: do not use potions when player health is already at 100. Reported by @coldner.
