My apologies for not making this clear in the last update. -A new toggle in the quality settings menu to disable tall grass, since it can be pretty demanding on slower computers; Bug Fixes: -Gifted cars having people in them; Portuguese: Adições: -Uma nova tela de tutorial que explica onde seus veículos são guardados (os que você ganha ao salvar civis em gaiolas voadoras).

- August 19 Update - 19 August 2023

- July 13 Update - 14 July 2023
Steam Achievements have been added! If you already achieved the things described in the achievements, you can get the achievements you earned upon loading the game in the city. Well, except for these achievements: SSS Combo, Arena Master, and Boss Beater. The reason why these 3 achievements won't be loaded is that I forgot to put the appropriate info about their actions in the save system, so there's nothing to load (oops!). So if you want to get these achievements you'll have to do the required feats a second time. If you have already beat all of the bosses before this update, you don't need to beat all of them again to earn the achievement, only the very last one. In the next update I'll be focusing on polishing the game. Misc: -Made a new sound effect for important items (blueprints, keys, photos) to make it harder to miss them; -Made it so police pursuits aren't initiated when destr…
- July 5 Update (Controller Support Added!) - 5 July 2023
Controller support is here! If your controller doesn't work right away, please use the key mappings menu (accessible from the pause menu) to manually configure the buttons. I have personally found the game to be much harder to beat when using a controller, but I don't know if it's just me. Let me know if you found it to be too hard! And let me know if you'd like me to implement a form or aim assist and/or difficulty settings. Controller Support Improvements: -You can now use controller sticks to move the camera; -Remade the interface system so you can navigate it using buttons or a mouse; -In the input mappings menu, added a separate menu for changing controller inputs. Actions can now be mapped to two different buttons, so you can play using mouse + keyboard or controllers, without having to remap all inputs when switching to mouse + keyboard or to controllers; -Fixed more instances of…
- Controller Support Progress - 2 July 2023
Hey, everybody! Just wanted to say that adding controller support is taking way, way longer than I thought it was going to, due to the need to rewrite a significant portion of the interface code. My apologies for this massive delay, I really have been doing my best. But the good news is that it's almost finished, so you can look forward to controller support in just a few days! Thank you so much for your patience and support!
