Obscure Bug Fixes :O

Hey guys! Marcos here with another patch for DImensional Animals.

Every game has very obscure bugs, some that are difficult to execute. These ones are very difficult to fix as well, since I only TODAY managed to replicate them here to start investigating where the issue might be hahaha

So let's see the fixes:

When pressing TAB or SELECT to open the minimap, if you remained holding a direction on the d-pad, analog stick or keyboard, the minimap would keep moving to the chosen direction while the menu was opening. This didn't cause any issues to the game, but was not right visually, so it's fixed now
During a boss fight, if you decided to open your map on the menu and move it around, once the boss was defeated and your minimap restored back on the screen it would be in the wrong position. Opening your map menu and closing it would restore it to the correct position, so this is more of a visual fix
After defeating rematch boss fights, if you sped up the defeat animation, the zoom in would stay in the game! You'd have to return to the main menu to fix the zoom. It's fixed now!

But that's not all!

There's also a very cool addition to PLUS mode! The map will only show the rooms you've visited!

Yeah, plus mode is going to be harder now.

Some people asked me to make the map like this in normal mode as well. But Dimensional Animals is designed to be a game for everyone. If you want to have a breezy experience, just play through the game normally. But if you want to aim for the 100% and also play the PLUS mode, you're going to be challenged! This way you can play how you want, and aim for the amount of challenge you want.

Just to make it clear, the normal mode will remain with the map looking like this:

The rooms that you've visited are highlighted, but the rooms you haven't will still be showing on the map.

This way it's easier to decide where to go next!

You won't have this luxury anymore on PLUS mode, though. You'll have to rely on memory or navigation skills to play this more challenging mode.

Hope you like this change!

Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
