- Patch 1 Live! - 27 October 2016
Hi everyone! So Patch number 1 is live now and here is the list of changes we've introduced: 999x combo achievement is now working You have a lot more control over the screen sizes. Besides the default size it will list all the screen sizes your monitor or screen would list in the screen resolution options The game screen now keeps aspect ratio (1x, 2x, 3x etc). If you pick a screen size in between aspect ratios it will use a black border to fill in the gaps around the biggest aspect ratio it can fit Fixed the level 7 crash, which was actually the ally Andy being broken. Not many people choose him to use, so that's why not many people reported the bug. Poor old Andy hahaha Tried to make the buttons less confusing. If in doubt, change the controls in the option screen Also included are specific fixes for Linux and Mac: Mac Patch Somehow it looks like full screen is working now! Let me kn…

- Updates and Fixes Ahoy! - 19 September 2016
Hi, Matt here, lead developer on this game. It's speak like a pirate day here in Australia and its time to look at support for this game, Yarrr! Ok, so here's a list of reported problems I'm going to tackle first: 1) Level 7 Crash: Artemis Chanchan reported that the game crashes on level 7, so that's definitely up first. If anyone else is experiencing this let me know. It would be good to know if its a once off or a pattern. 2) Fix Un-Achieveable Achievements: Based on what we're seeing in the stats, the 999x combo achievement isn't unlocking. We've verified this one too, and I'll look into solving it so we can all 100% this bad boy. 3) Confusing Button UI: Watching Youtubers play the game has shown us players are struggling with the A, B and C onscreen control prompts not _actually_ corresponding to gamepad inputs. We're not able to implement interactive button prompts for tech reasons…

- Updates for Bundle Purchasers - 18 September 2016
Hey wreckers, I know a lot of you bought the game in bundles and are still waiting on your keys. So this thread is to keep everyone updated on the status of all of those, and also to let you know how to redeem your keys where manual collection is required. So, going by bundle/promo: LazyGuys Bundle: I've received confirmation these have been emailed to players. If you're waiting on one, check your inbox. IndieGala Bundle: We've sent them the keys, now just waiting for them to send them out to players. I've heard they're notoriously slow at doing this, but they should hopefully be on their way. IndieGameStand PYWY: if you bought the game on IGS, you can redeem through the IGS backend. Just go to your game wallet and hit "Request Steam Key" on Fatal Theory. BundleBandits & IndieRoyale: These bundles were trickier, because the folks who ran them are no longer around. So what I've done is c…

- Important Information for Mac Players! EDIT: FIXED - 14 September 2016
EDIT: The below information is outdated as it appears we've fixed this problem. So fullscreen should work for Fatal Theory now. Cheers, Matt We encountered an issue with our Mac OSX builds where toggling to fullscreen would outright crash the game. We've removed fullscreen from the display menu, but added extra windowed screen sizes so you can still enjoy it at a larger resolution. We can easily add new screen sizes to the list too. If it's still too small for whatever massive display you may have, let us know your screen size and we can work with it. But we just can't do actual full screen. From our tests it seems to be a problem with the framework we built the game in, SDL 1.2 (although we'd love to be proven wrong on this, because it'd mean we could fix it). If that's the case, our only option would be to migrate the game to SDL 2, which at this point would be a massive rewrite all f…
