Paint The World — v0.504

Catch-up notes covering everything since v0.499.

New

  • Aim Lock (middle-click) - paint with a perfectly still camera. Move the mouse to slide a reticle around the screen instead of turning the view. Ideal if first-person movement makes you queasy.

  • Steam Deck touch painting (experimental) - touch the screen to paint right where you point, and look around with the stick.

  • Join our Discord - a link right on the title screen. Come share what you've painted and ideas for the game!

Now in 29 languages

  • Menus, HUD, controls, scenery, and achievements are translated (draft translations). Pick your language in Options - it offers a quick restart to apply it everywhere.

Achievements rebalanced

  • Retuned so they're earned across real play instead of the first few minutes, with tougher coverage, stroke, and erasing goals.

  • A world now counts as fully painted at 70%.

Painting & UI

  • Bucket fill stays on the surface you clicked instead of bleeding onto neighboring ones.

  • Redesigned Controls screen - every control in its own clear, labeled box.

Fixes & polish

  • Right-click delete now removes exactly what you're aiming at, even tall objects like trees and lamp posts.

  • The tutorial no longer lets you jump into a world before it's ready.

  • New-player help: a drop-cloth explainer, a "mouse wheel resizes the brush" tip, and cleaner on-screen messages.


Happy painting! 🎨 https://discord.gg/KnsXU7qerQ
