First update and patch notes

World's Dawn · published

Hello all! I just uploaded a new build of the game that should address many of the issues that have been reported in the first few days.

PATCH NOTES

  • Sprinting now takes half as much energy as it did before. This should help you run around town and not worry so much about conserving energy. In addition, the draining sound effect has been removed until you're dangerously close to fainting.
  • You can now exit the game by using your Pocket Diary and selecting the bottom option.
  • Barley won't accept Piping Stew during festivals anymore. To those of you who missed out on completing his quest because of this, I will be contacting you directly with a way to get more stew!
  • After you drink too much and pass out, Quint will still take you to the Guard House, but you'll now be able to get up from the bed.
  • Mixing fruit juice + pure water will no longer give you an extra bottle, and mixing pixie pollen + crushed herb will give you ground nature instead of herbal mix.
  • Male players will no longer receive a second pair of Denim Tucks for winning the LockBall Bash.
  • Digging in the same spot after your dog barks will no longer yield unlimited coins.
  • Minor graphical improvements have been made such as different colored seed bags and painting icons.


OUTSTANDING ISSUES

  • The F12 key restarts and/or crashes the game. I am fully aware of this issue (which is caused by the RPG Maker engine) and am working on a solution. In the meantime, if you would like to use the Steam screenshot function, you can reassign your screenshot key in your Steam settings. Sorry for the trouble!
  • Steam overlay and achievement features are still not working properly for a small percentage of players. I'm unsure of the reason for this but am working on finding a fix.
  • Controller options are far from perfect (the lack of d-pad movement especially). I'm working on it, but I don't want to make any promises... it may be best just to use a keyboard if you are having issues.


I am planning to continue updating World's Dawn for the foreseeable future, so please continue to report any small annoyances or bugs you come across. Thanks for your patience in these early days! I hope you're all enjoying the game so far =)
