Hotfix #2 for the Groovekeeper Demo is now LIVE! This update focuses on making the demo more comfortable to play, easier to understand, and faster to interact with.
What’s New in v0.0.3
Added a new way to empty record boxes — hold the interaction button to pour the contents directly onto the floor
Changed the name list in the top-left from a hold action to a toggle
Improved the Auto Sort skill to make its behavior clearer
Added an on/off option for Auto Sort, so using it is now completely optional
Fixed missing localization in several places
Reduced and fixed visual shaking that could feel uncomfortable during gameplay
Various small fixes and polish
Faster Box Handling
The biggest addition in this update is a new way to deal with record boxes. You can now hold the interaction button while using a box to empty its records directly onto the floor, making it much faster to unpack larger batches when you want to sort them your own way.
More Control Over the Experience
We also made a few systems less intrusive and easier to control. The name list is now a toggle instead of something you need to keep holding, and Auto Sort can now be turned on or off whenever you want. If you prefer doing everything manually, you can simply leave it disabled.
Keep the Feedback Coming
We’re continuing to go through your reports and suggestions, and several of the changes in this update came directly from things players found unclear or uncomfortable. If you run into a bug, notice something that could feel better, or have an idea for the game, please keep using the in-game feedback tool and let us know.
Steam Next Fest — October 19–26
Groovekeeper will be taking part in Steam Next Fest later this month. If you haven’t tried the demo yet, this is a good time to jump in and see the latest version for yourself. Thanks for playing and for helping us improve the game. Keep groovin’,
