Hey there Teleposters, we hope you’re having a great time tackling the Telepost so far. We wanted to say a BIG thank you for all of your support over on the official KeyWe Twitter and Discord channels – we love seeing your wardrobe choices and hearing about your favourite characters and levels.
Whilst kiwis are omnivores and their diet primarily consists of insects, they can’t be expected to run the Telepost and take care of any bugs they spot along the way. Don’t worry, though, that’s where your handy KeyWe development team comes in! Read on for the latest KeyWe patch notes…
Level Fixes
Telegraph Desk Levels
You reported some synchronisation issues with the Telegraph Desk levels. We’ve submitted some safety nets to try and catch these issues!
Transcription Room Levels
We’ve implemented a fix so that the post toaster is a little more forgiving in terms of timing – there’s no such thing as perfect timing, after all! We also fixed an issue with the buckles on the Cassowary bags in the winter levels – we guess the cold weather was making them difficult to fasten!
Electrical Interference
After completing a goal with the "overcharged" mechanic (where your kiwis glow blue and red), the game would not let you progress. We’re pleased to report that this bug has well and truly been zapped!
Bitter Cold
Some of our winter weather mechanics (namely the ice blocks and conveyor belts) weren’t functioning properly in online games. We’ve since fixed this frosty little bug AND we’ve increased the lantern radius to make melting the ice a little bit easier, but we are aware of some other issues with this level that we'll be looking to patch at a later date. If you encounter any problems in the meantime, the best course of action is to return to the main menu and relaunch the level from the calendar.
Lunch Break
We’ve patched in a fix for a known issue where your kiwis can get stuck falling forever (spooky!), but please let us know if you’re still encountering this issue.
An Approaching Storm
This level wasn’t displaying messages properly when the timer was turned off. This has been repaired, and you can now take this level at your own pace again.
Postal Pest Problems
Those pesky mailflies were blocking the crane controls and giving the kiwis a real hard time! We’ve given them a stern talking to, so this shouldn’t be an issue anymore.
Wearables & Collectibles
Lilac Breasted Roller Skin
We know this skin was displaying some rather funky colours. While cool to look at, this has been restored to its former glory.
Z39 Soaring Auk
We’ve fixed this collectible puzzle.
Controller Assignment Functionality
A new feature has been added that allows players to assign controllers and choose their keyboard layout!
- Players can now choose who uses what controller.
- Players can choose if player 2 uses the numpad or other keys on the keyboard (if you don’t have a numpad).
- If you’re using a single controller, the other player can now use the full keyboard layout.
Localisation
- We put in a fix for an issue where players in Turkey couldn’t play online and have tested this as best as we can without flying to Turkey and testing there!
- There was also an issue where players who had Windows set to Turkish weren’t able to see certain text characters in the game. This has been repaired!
- Russian text no longer clips through the ramps in Dropoff Depot levels.
- Fixed broken Spanish messages in Transcription Room levels.
- Fixed broken Italian messages in Transcription Room levels.
- Fixed issues where certain words wouldn’t appear in the winter Telegraph Desk levels when playing in non-English languages.
Other Fixes
- Improved collision across multiple levels.
- Fixed issue with swapping kiwi customizations when playing online.
- Fixed issue in the Wardrobe with kiwi customizations being swapped after new item reveal.
- Fixed issue where personal best times show up in match results after failing a level.
- Put in catch-all to unlock progress wearables and award achievements that were earned on Demo accounts.
- Fixed Summer Postmaster and Fall Postmaster achievements.
We hope these fixes make your KeyWe experience even more enjoyable! If you encounter anything in KeyWe that you think we need to be aware of, please feel free to email [email protected].
