Build 26293544

Hey there, Heretics!

To celebrate a little less than 24 hours of Heresy, I have a hotfix for the game as well as a little Launch Day Recap.

Tl;dr There's a gross frame! I wanted to fix it! Hopefully it's fixed now!

This didn't show up in any of my editors, or even on my Mac for some reason, but the second I tried the non-dev Steam build on my PC maybe 40% of the time I was seeing this glitched frame on Act Select before the ViewPorts rendered.

Ew! Gross! Also accidental homage to MissingNo from Pokemon? Who remembers MissingNo? Am I a washed/chopped unc?

Obviously this isn't game-breaking, but considering Act Select is like, one of the most frequently loaded scenes in the game I figured it'd be good to quickly patch this problem.

There's another fix as well, but it's something you wouldn't have encountered unless you'd already beaten the game so I won't tell you what it is. A fella is allowed his secrets.

Launch Recap

Yesterday was incredible. Naturally I had a lot of anxiety leading up to launching the game— It was my first, after all!— but after hitting release, I had some champagne, a bit of the Amulet Cake I made the night before, and did some yard work with my wife. It was a grand day.

Also my wife bought me a Lantern! To celebrate my lil game studio! I know it looks like she counted 13 hogs, but that's the time of launch (our wedding anniversary, 13:09)

I really am just a fella, so whether I know you personally or not, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Game development was a distant dream and now it's a shaky-legged reality, stumbling through the undergrowth, lookin for sweet sweet berries.

Toodles, Happy Heresy!
