TY the Tasmanian Tiger · published
Hi all,
A new build of TY1 (r3497_v1.26) has been released.
The major addition to this build is the new Hardcore Mode!
In Hardcore mode we've removed all bonus lives and respawning - you literally have <one> life to get through the game. If you do happen to lose a life; we helpfully reset your save game and restart your adventure.
We've added two new leaderboards (Hardcore Game Complete and Hardcore 100% Game Complete) and two new achievements (Completing the game in Hardcore and 100% Completing the Game in Hardcore) for your troubles! And cheats are disabled in Hardcore mode :)
We hope that this provides a little bit of replayability for you all (and maybe bragging rights!)
Additionally, we're happy to announce that TY3 has been released in to Early Access! As part of TY3's release, TY1 is currently on sale to celebrate; and if you own TY1 or TY2, you should receive an extra bonus discount for buying TY3 during this first week of Early Access - as we've increased the launch discount to 22% across the board!

Lastly, this TY1 build has the following bug fixes:
- AUDIO: Fixes for volume ranges of the Fluffy boss fight
- CHEATS: Fixed issue where, if you use cheats to obtain the elemental rangs, then shatter a blocker into areas of the game you shouldn't get to yet, you cannot then talk to Julius to spawn the boss and continue the game.
- CONTROLS: Fixed TY not being able to tip-toe with keyboard, meaning he can't get across ice (SHIFT key now enters tip-toe properly)
- GAMEPLAY: Added hardcore mode, and associated leaderboards and achievements.
- LEADERBOARDS: Fix uninitialised speed run mode variable and memory overwrite if a speed run time went to 10+ hours.
- UI: Added mouse input handling for Continue screen (when you run out of lives)
Cheers
Linds
