Test v0.4.1 in the new Preview Branch!

Kevin's Path to Wizdom · published

Hey folks!

It's been a few weeks since the last update, hasn't it? Well, it'll probably be a few more until v0.4.1 will be released fully. The reason is simply that scripting individual intros to each level takes some time.

Fortunately, we're introducing the new preview branch! The preview branch allows us to upload updates earlier without feeling bad about delivering an unfinished or potentially buggy build. So, if you want to get these preview builds, all you need to do is open the games page in your Steam client, open the properties window, select BETA on the left and then select the preview build from the dropdown menu!

You can revert this at any time should you change your mind.

And this is what awaits you today, should you decide to make the switch:

Preview Update v0.4.1

  • Introduced Level Intro Animations (level 1-1 to 2-2)
  • Added teleporting effect and sfx
  • Added cool parallax effect to main menu
  • Added pretty fireflies to the main menu
  • Improved fading in and out of scenes
  • Improve camera bounds and movement
  • Improved Text Bubble overlap handling
  • Improved loader and scene loading logic (maybe improving load times)
  • Gave black rats ice blue eyes (cause they're immune to ice!)
  • Updated to Unity 2019.4.26f1
  • Fixed deleting current save slot wouldn't update loaded content
  • Fixed enabling/disabling of continue button
  • Fixed splash screen catching cursor even if game is not in focus

In any case, thanks for reading and as always, if you want to be more involved with the development, or just to hang out, come have a chat with us on our Discord server!
