- April '24 Audio Patch - 18 April 2024
Just a small update to tune the environmental sound on the island. Less buzzing insects. Some more birds. And player footsteps are softer.
- March 2024 Update - 4 March 2024
I think this might be the last update as I move on to new projects. Patch notes: Table of Contents now displays how many creatures you have photographed at each portal visited. As well as the total amount of creatures inside the portal to help you track down missing creatures. Localization for 10 languages. German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Arabic, Norwegian, and Scottish Gaelic. I used a web service so these translations are probably full of errors, so it is not officially noted on the store page. I just wanted to have something in case someone really wants to play and the language is a barrier to them. The mountaintop will now unlock at 15 portals found rather than 17. Dragon will not repeat dialog if you have acquired the Underworld portal token Crown token is automatically registered after getting to the top of the mountain The Photo Gallery remembers t…
- PANdemonium Update - 15 October 2023
4 New Portals to explore plus a slideshow gallery portal to watch your favorite photos. New creatures upping the total in the game to 127. You can find the new portals near the gnome village, in the middle of the Lake, at the ruins near the mountain stairs, and from the crown dropped by the Man on the Mountain. Visit the guide if you need help tracking down the new creatures. This will be the last major update to the game as I look ahead to new projects. I'm honored to have so many people play and enjoy this weird little game I made. Thank you for your support!
- Update 1.015 - 6 February 2023
- Fixed export photo bugs for both VR and Flatscreen. Will no longer be locked out if selecting export folder location while in windowed mode Apologies for the small patch size but it was game breaking for some users. Updates will hopefully only happen during content updates from now on (new characters or levels). The slow patching speed has been noted, and I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
- Update 1.014 - 25 January 2023
Sorry about the double patches this week, but I wanted to implement some changes that were bothering flatscreen players. -Windowed Mode now works. VR players can switch to windowed mode by switching to flatscreen then selecting windowed mode and switching back to VR. -Stopping after running is now quicker for flatscreen players. Not as much sliding. -Hold down shift to Sprint for flatscreen keyboard and mouse players (Controller is still press once) -Subtitles is now enabled as the default for new games on Flatscreen. -Escape now opens menu as well as closing it for Flatscreen. And is a shortcut to quit for VR players. Tab key still works for the menu and can be remapped.
- Update 1.013 - 23 January 2023
Added HP Reverb 2 Support. (thanks Joeyhodge!) Fixed problem with Sheep Dream Token not registering achievement progress Fixed problem with Fractal Room Token not registering achievement progress Fixed Funguy subtitles to accurately reflect the spoken dialog. Fixed WiseTree subtitles to accurately reflect the spoken dialog. Fixed Cloud god subtitles to accurately reflect the spoken dialog. Fixed Faerie King subtitles to accurately reflect the spoken dialog. Now that the craziness of launch week is over, and I'm back to my day job, updates will slow down for a bit. I've really appreciated the positive response to the game so far. It means everything to me that it has resonated with so many people. I have every intention to create more content for Isle of Pan; some more creatures, maybe a portal or two. So keep an eye out for that this Spring. I just need some rest first. Keep sharing tho…
- Update 1.012 - 14 January 2023
-Improved force grab for VR players: The default is now A button to bring up the laser beam. And Trigger to select. This is more inline with other VR games. If you liked the previous way, you can toggle the option under the settings menu with height adjustment. Its at the bottom of the page. And you can change it by left or right hand -VR sprinting is now click rather than holding down the thumbstick -Fixed teleporting while using force grab with Vive wands -Added the rest of the musicians to the credits -Mountain spiral was made smaller to avoid clipping -Lochie not appearing is hopefully fixed, please let me know if you still have problems. From now on, updates will only be once a week at most. Thank you for your patience with the updates this week and keep posting those photos!
