Hello all planet builders!
Thanks for continuing to play Bubblegum Galaxy, we're so happy to see people still enjoying the game.
Today, we're sharing a new update with you, that besides bug fixes includes a new free special mode for the game!
To celebrate this, the game currently at ~~~ a 20% discount! ~~~ If you're on the fence or have any friends that are, now is a great time to get the game ദ്ദി ( ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ )
But before that, let's explain the new mode:
Ever feel like you need a co-working companion? Look no more: Haco is here!
In Study Mode, Haco will join you while she's working on a planet to keep you company. While in this mode, you can use the built-in music player to listen to game's HQ soundtrack and set a Pomodoro-style timer to set focus while you work.
Study Mode can be accessed from the Main Menu. You can use it in full screen or in windowed mode; if windowed, you can resize the window and pin it to the top so you can use other applications while running a timer!
When loading into Study Mode, the game will also load the office decorations and costume you have set in the main game. If you want to customize the appearance of Haco or her cubicle, you must load the main game, customize your office, and then exit back to the main menu.
Note: You can also access Study Mode from Haco's computer if you've finished the game, but this will have lower performance than loading it from the menu - we recommend using the main menu option if you're planning to do other activities on your computer!
We've implemented a potential fix for when tile placement breaks and you are no longer able to place tiles. If you are still running into issues, please let us know on Discord!
We've fixed an issue when obtaining friendship related achievements.
We've added a fix for achievements that were unlocked in-game but not on Steam: if there is any achievement you unlocked in-game but not on Steam, open the journal on Haco's computer and navigate to the corresponding achievement. This should unlock the achievement, but let us know if it doesn't work!
Fixed issue where music volume options was ignored during planet building gameplay.
Removed soft bubblegummy limit when building larger planets. We hope the grind for the bubblegummy achievement is tad more bearable now!
As always, thanks for your support. Let us know if you run into any issues, and we hope you enjoy this update!
