Hello again, Surveyors! This patch took me a little longer, but it's a substantial improvement to the game! The short version is that I squashed lots of bugs and typos and adjusted the gameplay a little so it works better. The long version is down below:
[h1]
New Things[/h1]
- Saving is now disabled during the timers. This will eliminate bugs relating to saves and loads made while the timer is active and also make the timers more meaningful. (Can't really do anything about saves made before this update during the timers unfortunately, but I highly advise against using them as it leads to strange behavior in the game.)
-Added some additional voice acting for Meaty Marissa (Thanks HollyberryVA!)
[h1]Tweaks / Adjustments[/h1]
- Rebalanced audio levels for sound effects and ambient tracks. Should be way more consistent of a mix now.
- Slight revisions to Katie & Janine's scene and the scene outside of Pux's house for clarity and consistency.
-Did a thorough scrub for typos, most if not all of them should be gone now. Finally, my English teachers can stop sending me angry letters!
[h1]Bug fixes[/h1]
- Fixed a bug where you would be prompted to see Episode Rich when you weren't supposed to
- The Messenger will now be more polite and listen to your request to not experience Episode Rich. To be honest, her ignoring your wishes is pretty in character, but was completely unintended!
- Found a crash hiding in Danger Scenario 3 (Flaps).
-Corrected an issue where music in the 'Junks' section wouldn't play.
------------------
Be sure to restart steam to ensure the update applies. I think this will be the last patch needed for awhile before I start adding new content to the game (eventually).
Also.... thank you all so much for playing my game! Last I checked the game had broached 5k players, it's probably higher by now. While those aren't massive numbers in the context of Steam as a whole, they are massive to me. Your support and feedback has been wonderful, and I'm extremely thankful for all of you who gave my game a try!
