Paint the Town Red - Eternic

Version 1.2.0 is now available and brings a bunch of new shooter focused Modifiers to the Scenarios, a variety of new Level Editor options to support characters using guns and other ranged weapons, and some Multiplayer improvements including allowing some Modifiers in coop Scenarios and allowing the host to change the level at any time.

Scenario Modifiers

The new modifiers available in the Scenarios are: Easy Shooter, Hard Shooter, Pistols Shooter, Nailguns Shooter, Primitive Shooter, Unlimited Ammo, Double Jump, and Shields Everywhere.

Shooter Modifiers

The Shooter modifiers give all the enemies in a Scenario a variety of different ranged weapons with different aggressiveness, accuracy and range settings depending on the modifier.

  • Easy Shooter has less aggressive weapons and AI
  • Hard Shooter has the toughest weapons and more aggressive and accurate AI
  • Primitive Shooter uses only non-firearm ranged weapons
  • Pistols Shooter features only the various pistols in the game
  • Nailguns Shooter gives everyone a nailgun
There are so many creative modifier combinations to find that can make things more fun or more challenging.


Double Jump Modifier
The Double Jump modifier gives the player the ability to perform a second jump in the air. In Workshop levels that include fall damage, this will also allow the player to prevent fall damage with a last second jump.


Shields Everywhere Modifier
The Shields Everywhere modifier puts a variety of shields throughout the Scenario levels and can be very helpful when combined with the Shooter modifiers.

Level Editor Changes

New Weapons: MP5 and M1911
In addition to being available in the new Scenario modifiers, the MP5 and M1911 are now available to use in the Level Editor.



Assigning Characters to a Weapon
Using the Logic connection system you can now assign a weapon to a character in the Level Editor and have them either immediately have it when the level starts, or have it be something they go to pick up once combat starts.

Ambient Lighting Preview
You can now see what your level will look like with the ambient light value you've set while editing it. This makes setting up lighting for dark levels approximately 28000x easier.


Multiplayer Modifiers and Level Select
Many of the Scenario modifiers available in single player are now also available to use in the Scenario in multiplayer. This includes all the new Shooter modifiers, the class modifiers and many more.

The host of a multiplayer match can now restart or change the level and mode from the 'pause' menu or after dying in Beneath or the Arena.


There have also been a lot of other additions, improvements and fixes in this update. Thanks to everyone that was able to test out the WIP versions of this update over the past week and provide valuable feedback. Special recognition to hollowedcommander on the official Discord server for being the MVP of bug reporting for this build.

Paint the Town Red - South East Games
Something about a good night's sleep between April 1st and 2nd has made us realise that that whole flowers instead of blood thing was pretty weird so lets just pretend that didn't happen.

But if you'd prefer not to join us in forgetting, we've left the 'Green' modifier available in the game so you can paint the town green whenever the mood strikes.

Version 1.1.3
  • Added the Green modifier
Mar 31, 2022
Paint the Town Red - Eternic
April 2nd Edit:

Yeah so... blood is back, nothing to see here. I've left the original post below but here now on April 2nd it seems like some pretty crazy ramblings so lets all just pretend it didn't happen.

In all seriousness the build has been update to be back to normal, but the 'Green' modifier is still available as an option.




-----





Hey Brawlers.

The team has been discussing for quite some time what we feel is the best single change we can make that is what players new and old really want. So we've finally come to the decision to officially remove all of the blood in Paint the Town Red!

This is a change so obvious that it's amazing it eluded us for several years. We expect you, the Paint the Town Red Green community will universally find it, for lack of a better word: foolish that we didn't do this sooner!

Let's paint the town with flowers instead!



Changes to the fluids of the other Gardners:

  • Solanaceae Petunioideae seed has been modified to replace hemoglobin, and bloom on contact.
  • Four different varieties of flower can bloom once the seed makes contact with the world.
  • It will bloom anywhere it lands!
  • Anywhere. It. Lands.
Our patented blooming technology in action!




Be sure to hop onto the Discord and share your beautiful Floristry with the rest of the community.

We've rose to the occasion and planted a seed that will grow a new era for our game. So why not poppy-in to your favourite level, put the petal to the metal and fall head clover heels in love with this new in-carnation because it's sure to make your daisy. The enemies are still thorny, but don't soil yourself or wet your plants, you can beat them, just take stalk of your life and don't stop be-leafing!

Get out there Gardners!

This update adds the option on Teleporters in the Level Editor to have sounds play on entry and/or exit. We've also been working to ensure the game runs great on the Steam Deck (which it now does) which includes some general gamepad improvements in the main menu and fixes for some bugs that could occur on Linux with some CPUs.

Version 1.1.2 is a quick follow-up update to the 1.1.1 update which also fixes a bug that caused players to sometimes not teleport to the wrong spot when using a teleporter.

Version 1.1.2
  • Fixed bug causing the player to be sent to the wrong spot when using some teleporters

Version 1.1.1
  • Level Editor: Added Entry and Exit sound options on Teleporters
  • Miscellaneous system updates to better support the Steam Deck
  • Fixed issues with main menu not always being navigable with a gamepad
  • Fixed bug that could prevent gameplay on some Linux/SteamOS versions
  • Fixed thrown weapons coming out of Teleporters in the wrong direction in some cases
