- Endless Mode Fix - 18 October 2023
Fixed softlock that occurred when hitting the last crystal of a level and an enemy at the same time in Endless mode (thanks Slinkinum).
- Controller Fixes - 26 June 2023
Three smaller fixes for improved controller support: Fix cutscene easter egg being played when clicking buttons and cursor was in place of the portraits Fix position/target selection not working on controller in level editor Fix menu not working after dying twice in challenge mode Thanks for playing Turnament!
- Cutscene Fix - 6 April 2023
Fixed transportation animation appearing in cutscenes where it didn't make any sense (thanks to NikSynaly and his brother)
- Repair Seeker Fix - 23 March 2023
Fixed a bug where repair seekers would still be able to use their abilities after the first repair seeker already used all of the remaining energy (thanks Marut). Adjusted credits you get from player levels (thanks Djigallag).
- Improved build size - 3 March 2023
Another list of small updates: Changed compression of all music from PCM to Vorbis, which reduces file sizes by about 90% and has basically no loss in audio quality. Build size has been reduced by roughly 450MB. Restart in challenge mode restarts current level now Circles around seekers now get disposed of properly after the animation is done Slowdown occurs more accurately now when a collision is being detected and game speed resets quicker Added a red collision warning icon Removed Catty & Batty sprites & scripts from project New ambient sound in cutscenes now fades out better when switching scenes (to avoid clicking noise) Updates will probably slow down soon, but we shall see!
