- Version 1.1.0 - 7 October 2026
Hey folks! This patch adjusts the game in various ways, including some of the feedback that has been piling up. My first priority with the previous patches has always been to react to bug reports as swiftly as possible, and now that the reports are dying down, I am switching to integrating more improvements to existing features, changing certain things according to feedback echoed by people, and doing optimization passes on existing features. ADDITIONS - added "Restart now" button when changing the game language CHANGES - goons, when shot while climbing, will now trip and fall at the end of their climb - money pickups the player has already been close to will now be highlighted more often - the dialogue history box is now positioned within the dialogue box itself, the dialogue box has been reduced in size, and the font of the spoken dialogue depends on the size of the text, so that larg…
