Game updates - July 2015

## Update - July 27, 2015 (Developer's Build 0.3.0)

### **General Changes**

* Controller support has been overhauled to be more compatible with XBox controllers and recent Windows updates; this also paves the way for key bindings coming Soon(tm)
* Added support to spawn Water Cave puzzles
* Added elevation support; the hookshot now is not blocked by blocking events on low ground when shot from high ground

### **Map Changes**

* Added Water Cave 2
* Adjusted water cave tileset with correct passibility settings

### **Puzzle Changes**

* Added Puzzle 59 with three puzzle options
* New Mechanic: Elevation. High ground and low ground take on a more important role in the Water Cave. Previously the difference was merely aesthetic; now tiles are set up to allow elevation to play an important puzzle mechanic role. Elevation is now dynamically spawned, rather than fixed on a map.

* New Mechanic: Statues. These very large statues celebrating the Water Goddess’s beauty have switches in their bases. When activated, statues pour water from jugs they are holding. When two or more statues are active, water levels will be impassible. When only one is active, water levels will be shallow enough to walk through, but some functions will be limited. When no statue is active, there will be no water in the room, and it will be freely passable.
* Lever switches in deep or shallow water cannot be used.

The hookshot can be obtained in a cart at the end of the Dark Cave.
