+## New Features
+
+#### Creatures are more aggressive
+
+The game's creatures have had an update to their A.I. and many of them will now
+become hostile to the player character. There have also been updates to their
+behavior when controlled _by_ the player character. Some of the changed behaviors
+include:
+
+The **Azulians** will track and follow the player character and jump if you are
+above them. Azulians are friendly if the player character is an Azulian or a
+Thief. Each color of Azulian has a different aggro radius, speed and jump height
+with the Blue Azulian being the weakest of them all.
+
+The **Bird** will search for the player and dive-bomb at them when it sees a shot
+it can take. Birds do not attack players who can fly, so they are friendly
+to the player character if you play as the Bird. When under the player's control,
+the Bird can dive to kill other mobs such as the Azulian.
+
+The **Anvil**, under the player's control, is invulnerable to damage from enemy
+mobs and it can crush other mobs by jumping onto them.
+
+#### Game controller support
+
+_Sketchy Maze_ can now be played using an Xbox-compatible controller, including
+some from Nintendo such as the Switch Pro Controller.
+
+If you have a Nintendo-like controller where the "A/B" and "X/Y" buttons are each
+swapped compared to an Xbox-like, you can choose the "N Style" button layout in
+the game's settings. Every PC game controller in my house is a Nintendo-style one,
+so this button mapping is a first-class citizen in my game!
+
+See the [Gamepad Controls](https://www.sketchymaze.com/guidebook/controls.html#gamepad-controls)
+in the Guidebook for full details!
+
+## New Levels & Doodads
+
+Two new levels have been added:
+
+* **The Zoo:** this Tutorial level shows off basically all of the doodads in the game
+ and features a "costume room" to try playing as different creatures.
+* **Shapeshifter:** this addition to the First Quest needs the player to swap between
+ different creatures to complete the level
+
+And there's a new doodad:
+
+* The **White Azulian** is the strongest Azulian and has a larger player search
+ radius, speed and jump height than the Red Azulian.
+
+## Scripting updates for custom doodads
+
+The JavaScript syntax used by doodad scripts now supports many modern ES6 syntax
+features, including the `let` and `const` keywords, arrow functions, Promises, and
+`for-of` loops, which brings a massive quality of life improvement for programming
+custom doodads!
+
+For the technical details, I've replaced [robertkrimen/otto](https://github.com/robertkrimen/otto)
+with [dop251/goja](https://github.com/dop251/goja) - check their documentation for updates
+on ES6 syntax support!
+
+There are also new features in the scripting API to allow doodads to search the level
+for the player or other actors. Check out the functions tagged "v0.11.0" on the
+[Script API Reference](https://www.sketchymaze.com/guidebook/custom-doodads/api-reference.html)
+for full details.
