Comic SFX, Combos, and a Punchier Game Feel



Hey everyone,
We've just released a major update for Situation Normal! This one focuses on tightening the game feel, improving feedback, and adding more arcade-style fun.
Here’s what’s new:
🗯️ Comic-Style Sound Effects
Every action now comes with comic-style text like PEW, BAM, and KABOOM. It adds a layer of energy and clarity during chaotic moments.
🎯 Combo Detection (Early Stage)
Combos now stack when you chain attacks together. It’s still basic, but already makes the action feel faster and more rewarding.
🏆 High Score Tracking
You can now rack up a high score during gameplay! There's no scoreboard or results screen yet, but your score updates in real time while playing.
🔫 New Gun Sounds
The pistol and shotgun now have punchier, more satisfying sounds to match their roles. The shotgun especially packs a nice thump.
🎵 New Game Music
We’ve refreshed the background music with a new track that better fits the pace and tone of the game.
📐 Added Depth & 3D Feel
We added more visual layers—foreground elements like iron beams, subtle parallax, and lighting tweaks—to make the world feel more immersive.
This update is all about reinforcing the arcade chaos and refining core systems. More polish and features (like scoreboards and difficulty tuning) are on the way.
Let us know what you think—and thank you for sticking with us!
