Latest TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge Update introduces new Arcade mode and CRT filters

Dotemu’s hit side-scroller, TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge, just got a beefy update with a tone of additions. Aside from the standard bug fixes, the game has received a brand-new Arcade mode. Allowing TMNT players granular control over multiple elements, users can now craft their own difficulty levels. While the new Arcade mode provides infinite replayability, the developers have also added a bunch of retro filters to polish the experience.

Here’s everything new in the update.

TMNT Shredder’s Revenge update 1.05 patch notes

New features

• A new Arcade mode is here: Custom Game!

You can see the customization in the lobbies of Custom Games. Achievements’ progression and unlocking is disabled in Custom Games.

• In the Character Select menu, the host can now set a maximum number of players for the lobby.

• Added some awesome filters: CRT (normal or curved) and VCR! Check them out in the Options menu.

• Fixed rare crash in Arcade mode when changing difficulty.
• Cars can no longer deal massive damage when the player is considered Armored (for example: charging a Heavy Swing).
• Fixed bosses sometimes unable to reach a player positioned at the very top or bottom of the stage.
• Fixed bosses sometimes frozen after being hit by Raphael’s Super Flying Attack.
• Fixed Score not kept for player when switching character after a continue.
• Fixed April’s Super Flying Attack sometimes seemingly reviving KO’ed enemies.
• Fixed reviving a KO player near the transition point (for example: escalators in the Crystal Palace Mall) that would sometimes prevent progression.
• Fixed updating the timer for special statuses (for example: Infinite Ninja Power) when KO or in a cutscene.
