Hey all,
We have some exciting news for you all!
Unless there is an unexpected problem, TY the Tasmanian Tiger 2: Bush Rescue, will release from Early Access early next week!
At this point the price of the game will increase to $14.99USD (and equivalent prices across other currencies).
As has been our policy for our previous releases, we will not be discounting the game for any sales for at least 3 months post-exit of Early Access. This is to ensure that the people who have supported us throughout Early Access are not in any way price disadvantaged.
Lastly, the TY2 soundtrack will become available for purchase when the game leaves Early Access, and we expect to shortly thereafter set up appropriate Bundles.
Then we're going to go see The Last Jedi.
In the drive to the v1.00 release, we have also released a new build on to the EXPERIMENTAL branch!
This build has a variety of small fixes, as well as language translation updates for all languages.
Any feedback on breaking issues that would effect the full launch would be, as normal, greatly appreciated.
Thank you to everybody who has been part of this journey so far. Hopefully we'll have some more good news for you, early in 2018.
Cheers!
Lindsay
r3040_v082 Changes
- ART: Up-res for textures for several actors (Clarence, Bruce, Orchid,
Snappy, Bruno, Red, Boonie, Goannas) - AUDIO: Projectiles now play the targets hit sound if needed.
- AUDIO: The thermo-bunyip trigged switches in Wulli Wulli Oil Rig now play a sound when hit by the water from the thermo bunyip.
- CONTROLS: Both analog sticks on the controller can now control the doomerang
- CRASH: fix for some rendering issues that can cause driver crashes from primitive render calls.
- GRAPHICS: Fixed the underwater fog effect
- LOCALIZATOIN: Updated all French, German, Spanish, Italian, Swedish and Danish lines that required translations.... unless we missed any! :)
- UI: Boomerang Hud - gamepad direction pointer is hidden when not using gamepad as current input.
- UI: NoisyButtonGroup, ScrollingButtonGroup - play sound when changing selected item using the mouse.
- UI: Pause Menu keyboard and mouse bindings - moved the "Reset to Default" and "Back" buttons upwards so they are onscreen.
- UI: Updated the steam and opengl messages to refer to "TY the Tasmanian Tiger 2".
- VIDEOS: Updated the videos in the extras menu of the main menu. The 2003 attract video is our original video from E3 2003, and contains footage of some of the content that didn't make the final cut. I don't believe that this video will have been seen by the general public previously. The 2004 Attract video is the video that was in the original release of the game. These are (quite obviously) lower quality than what people are used to these days; but they are the highest quality that we have!
