Hello dear players!
I have been spending these past weeks working on act 4 as well as some new additions for public release! More on ACT 4 below!
Grappling Hooks
Press fire onto any object above you and hold the fire button to reel yourself in!
Press again to unlink the cable!
The car flipper has been replaced by the new gravity hook which pulls items towards you instead of being pulled in, meaning it has the opposite effect of the grappling hook!
Alaska Safe House
It's pretty cold here, use the new heater objects to keep yourself warm! Be weary, you are not the only living being that made its dwelling here!
Linux Port
After some hiccups with getting it to work with STEAM I finally managed a proper Linux Port for No Time!
No more Proton, which means increased performance!
It comes with some increased performance as the Proton Layer has a poorer framerate than a straight port for Linux, which was my original reason to making a proper port.
Some video clips in game may still not work properly but that will be hopefully ironed out in the future!
This may or may not be also the first step towards any possible Mac build, thought these would be a bit harder to tackle, considering all the shader issues I had in the past when attempting a Mac Port.
Some smaller Additions!
Torches!
Can be commonly bought in older and ancient stores prior to 1900.
Space Weather
Fog is back again for some planets, as well as cloud patterns and occasional thunder.
3rd Person zoom scroll!
Use your mouse wheel in third person to get a bigger view over your surroundings!
536 AD
It was a year of darkness, a volcanic winter which was caused by at least three simultaneous eruptions of uncertain origin. (Credit to Hugestrike for the suggestion)
Revamped Full POWA flight!
Your flight in Full POWA mode has now been essentially changed to work similar to the jetpack flight.
ACT 4
I've spent the past weeks creating most possible set pieces that I need for the script!
It may still take some time to complete ACT 4 itself, it will be worth it though once it is done!
The next few days will be me working more on ACT 4's story so I that I can have some first private tests on the side of some select players. Some work for the next public update has been already done in advance, so that I can focus more time on ACT 4's development.
Thank you for your support!
God bless!
