"This is it. This is the end. It's time to finish this menace once and for all."

INTRODUCTION

For the uninitiated, End The Slend is a first person horror game that was originally made for a game jam against my good friend, Nogard, where we each had 7 days to make a game based around the classic indie horror icon, the Slenderman. After we made our games, we had 3 of our friends play both games and vote on which was better. If you want to see my video on that original game jam version, you can watch that HERE.

After finishing that video, I had the urge to continue working on the game, to add the things I didn't have the time to during the jam. I am currently working on a new video project for my YouTube Channel, where I take on the task of going back and updating all 6 of my currently released games! With the other games, I only made small changes and additions, but as this particular game was still fresh on the mind, I had plenty of ideas that I wanted to implement. So without further filler, here is the changelog for the final version of this game.

CHANGELOG - VERSION 1.4 : FINAL UPDATE

• Created an all new title screen, to deviate from the bland blank title screen from previous versions.
• Added footstep sound effects to the player.
• Slightly increased base movement speed for the player.
• Added a new music track that plays during the final encounter.
• Added various models around the world to spice the place up a bit.
• Changed the environment lighting just a bit, it is now slightly darker.
• Slenderman projectiles now clear when he is defeated, to avoid dying after winning.
• Modified parts of the world terrain, making some paths smaller and some more obvious.
• Fixed the flashlight still being visible when dead.
• Fixed player not dying when colliding with the Slenderman.

And finally, my favorite update to this little project of mine...

• Added HARD MODE - Player moves faster but must avoid 3 Slendermen at once! Accessible from the main menu.

EPILOGUE

It was a lot of fun designing and working on this project, and I'd like to give thanks to Nogard for motivating me to finally get something done. I had a lot of fun and can't wait for our next round! As the title of the update suggests, this is planned to be the last update for this game. The only exception would be any necessary bugfixing that needs to be done.

Thank you so much for reading, and if you plan on trying this game out, I hope you enjoy! And I would love any feedback on the game, YouTube letplays are always welcome.
