Chains Of Reality · published · build 23370409
Hey everyone,
This patch introduces a brand new level, The Attic, along with some changes and improvements to the overall game. Sanity is also entirely functional, and has been changed a fair amount. This is just a basic implementation for now. Building has also been vastly expanded.
Additions:
A new level, The Attic has been added. A small level that will be expanded in the future with dangerous falls. Watch your step.
Sanity now functions entirely, once it hits zero you start to lose health as you slowly start to dig out your skin
Warnings for low hunger, thirst, and sanity will now appear at the left of your screen
Added lots of new props you can now pick up and move around in The Office. This will be expanded to other levels overtime. You should be able to build a functional small base now. The new movable props in the office that have been added are:
Small Desk
Computer Tower
Desktop
Desk Lamp
Phone
More Wooden Boards
Added a universal chest/bank system, which you can find sci-fi crates in the level, called Void Chests, that can store your items and permanently save them across levels/when you quit. This chest system will be expanded upon in the future, and you will be able to move them around with the building system.
Sanity zones have been implemented. In dark, unsettling environments, you'll notice your sanity drain faster than normal. Stay in the light as best as you can. Some areas of darkness, such as very dimly lit areas, decrease your sanity just by a little, and some areas that are near pitch black, way faster.
Added toilet paper and trash to The Office's bathrooms. You can also pick up the toilet paper, because you might have an accident along the way, you never know
Added/expanded the locked closet room in The Hotel that houses The Reality Market. It adds a window that shows you that the market is inside of there, hinting you need a key to enter
Added a hit sound when breaking wooden boards with the crowbar
Added 2 water coolers to The Hotel
Added some desk lamps on more desks in The Office to hopefully help guide a little better during a power outage
Added a graphics preset option. This is a work in progress. Having it on Low, Medium, or High will override all other changes. Switch to custom to manually change everything else. This will be edited in the near future.
Changes:
Menu key is now Escape
Passive sanity drain has been slowed down immensely. Major draining now only happens in the dark
Water cups now give you the empty cup back after consuming
Changed the gravity in the Aether Otherworlds so your death bag doesnt stay floating
Changed the death bag physics to not fly up into the sky in the Aether Otherworlds
Optimized some of the The Hotel's lighting by adding draw distances
Changes the graphics menu's dropdown box selection color from black to a teal-ish color, for easier readability
Fixes:
Fixed the ability to open several menus at once
Fixed needing to double click to use the settings menu
Fixed a crash that occurred upon respawning via stat drain
Fixed a couple of typos with the items
Fixed numerous spots where you could see through the mesh/outside the map
Known Issues:
Falling twice down the pit in The Attic doesn't damage you, will be addressed next patch
