[0.4.0] - 2025-04-12

Added

  • A new setting called "Add Trap Items" has been added.
    • When enabled, traps will be added in the item pool as filler items.
    • As such, a new item called "Primordial Scarab Dialog" has been added, to trigger a dialog with the Primordial Scarab.
  • A new setting called "Trap Items Appearance" has been added.
    • When set to "Major Items Only", trap items will be disguised as major items.
    • When set to "Junk Items Only", trap items will be disguised as junk items.
    • When set to "Anything", trap items can be disguised as any other items.
    • This setting affects Minishoot' Adventures trap items, as well as Archipelago items from other games.
  • A new setting called "Enable Primordial Crystal Logic" has been added.
    • cf "Changed"
  • A new setting called "Progressive Dash" has been added.
    • When enabled, the game will fuse the Dash and the Spirit Dash into two cumulative progressive upgrades.
    • The first upgrade will always allow you to dash, and the second one will allow you to dash through bullets.
    • As such, a new item called "Progressive Dash" has been added for this setting.
  • A new setting called "Dashless Gaps" has been added.
    • When set on "Needs Dash", you will need the dash to cross gaps, regardless of their size.
    • When set on "Needs Boost", you will be able to logically cross gaps with the boost if the gap is small enough.
    • When set on "Needs neither", you will be able to cross certains, very tight gaps without any upgrade.
    • Note that this last value may require you to farm some XP to level up your speed.
  • On Archipelago, when another world uses the /collect command, this world's items in Minishoot' Adventures will be correctly removed next time the save file is started.
  • Added a version check when connecting to an Archipelago server.
    • Each client version will be assigned a range of compatible APWorld it can connect to (based on semantic versioning)
    • For example, client version 0.4.0 (as well as 0.4.1 and 0.4.2) will only be able to connect to APWorld version 0.4.0.
    • If the version of the APWorld is incompatible, the client will force a disconnection.
    • Note that the client will not check the version of Archipelago proper, only the Minishoot' Adventures APWorld.

Removed

  • Removed the setting "Simple Temple Exit"
    • This setting should be enabled all the time to avoid having the player getting stuck in temples.
    • This is even more problematic with random settings on Archipelago.
    • As such, it didn't make sense to keep this setting, and is now enabled by default.

Changed

  • The setting "Cannon Level Logical Requirements" has been changed :
    • It is now called "Ignore Cannon Level Requirements".
    • Its function has been reversed (meaning that if set to true, fights will only check the first cannon level).
    • This change has been made to normalize "difficulty settings", i.e. the seed will be harder if set to "true" (this setting was the only outlier, making the seed harder if set to "false").
  • The "Primordial Crystal" is no longer considered in logic to destroy rocks and walls.
    • A new setting called "Enable Primordial Crystal Logic" has been added and, if set to true, can re-establish the previous logic.
  • In an effort to stabilize seed generation on Archipelago, several changes has been made to the randomizer logic :
    • Changed logic rules that depends on the logic state being able to reach a certain region.
      • For example, the entrance to Swamp Tower would check if the player have access to "Swamp - South West Island" to activate the corresponding button.
      • Those checks were made to ease in a future entrance randomizer (ER) addition, but made seed generation on Archipelago failing some tests.
      • For now, those checks are being replaced by checking the correct item, in a non-ER context. Those will be properly replaced when ER will be a thing.
    • Dungeon 1 :
      • One door leading to "Dungeon 1 - South Item" has been removed. This means that this dungeon now has an extra key.
      • Removed the usage of the "cannot_dash" rule, meaning that small keys will likely be placed in the first part of the dungeon (when they are not shuffled).
    • Dungeon 3 :
      • One door leading to "Dungeon 3 - South corridor" has been removed. This means that this dungeon now has an extra key.
      • Removed the usage of the "cannot_surf" rule.
    • Abyss Church
      • The Unchosen Statue is now opened by default (instead of being opened when the player defeats the boss of Dungeon 5).
  • Removed arbitrary logic rules for the fights against the boss of Dungeon 1 and the Busher boss in Forest (the one guarding the Spirit Tower).
    • Those fights now only checks for cannon levels.
  • "Dungeon 3 - North arena" now properly checks for the "Boostless Torch Races" setting.
  • Renamed all instances of "Mercant" to "Merchant".
  • Temporarily removed file saving when receiving either a Small Key or a Boss Key.
    • This change is made to alleviate issues where exiting the map screen can drastically drop the game framerate.
    • This bug circumstances are still unclear, hence the temporary change.
