Embercast 0.3.19: ride the walls

Hi everyone,

Embercast 0.3.19 is out for Windows and Mac, and the Forest Court is rebuilt.

A wizard sprints into the curve of the Forest Court and runs up the wall

The walls are one smooth curve now, and you can ride them. Sprint into the curve and your wizard runs up the wall. Come in fast from the air and you can land on it. Jump to push off, or slow down and slide back to the floor. The spots where you could get stuck on the curve are gone.

I also gave the roof some attention. Brown vines wind along the beams and hold up the leaves, more vines climb down the walls, and the banners are still hanging where they were.

Goals now get a replay. You see the build-up, then the ember going through the ring in slow motion. Press Enter or A if you want to skip it, or turn replays off in Settings.

After a match, open Replay & save and then Highlights. Every goal and save from the match is there, and you can save any of them as a landscape or vertical clip with sound, ready to post.

Replays now show your opponent's embercast. Your online matches are also saved on Embercast's servers as well as on your computer, so a match isn't lost just because a file is. Being able to pull them back into the game is coming next. Bot games, local games and clips stay on your computer, and you can turn this off in Settings under "Share my replays with Embercast".

Thanks for playing. I'd love to see your first wall ride.
