- Update Notes For Apr 30 - 30 April 2024
Overhauled all areas surrounding a certain kind of collectible to contain more hidden lore Visual improvements all around the game
- The Location Name Update! - 28 March 2024
We’ve been hard at work on Airhead since it launched a while ago and today we can proudly release a new patch that will enhance the world of Airhead even more! The main focus of this update is the new location name feature. You can now see the name of each location displayed on the screen as you enter it and save at an air cylinder there. This will make it easier to understand where you are in the game and – should you need to look up a solution for a puzzle – makes it easier to find the right spot in walkthroughs or guides. Additionally, we’ve worked to improve the balancing of some puzzles a bit and have decreased the amount of air Head loses while filled with heavy air by 20%, which makes the timing on some tricky sections more forgiving! We’ve also improved some visuals and fixed a lot of bugs. See the full changelog below for everything the update contains! Full changelog: Location…
- Игра, где ты действительно голову дома забыл: Обзор Airhead - 27 February 2024
С " Воздухоголовым " у меня вышла довольно неприятная ситуация. Я не раз сломал голову в попытках отделить, собственно, игру от ее технического состояния. С одной стороны, перед нами махровая инди-жемчужина, сделанная с горячим сердцем, свежим взглядом на привычные вещи и льющимся как из ведра креативом. С другой… из-за безобразного технического состояния и некоторых странных решений мой опыт прохождения был настолько тернистым, что к экрану телевизора хотелось слезно приложить подорожник. Тем не менее, к финальным титрам игру хотелось скорее понять, простить и даже похвалить.
- Update Notes for Feb 22 - 22 February 2024
All Ears and All Eyes achievements no longer trigger too early fixed an issue where the Head would sometimes fall through the ground in a specific spot in the Mine fixed an issue where climbing back into the village area would make the player land on a wrong layer Due to a confusion with the previous patch's version, this version also now *actually* includes the following fixes: fixed an issue where an Airhunter was not able to return to the village area fixed an issue where a certain elevator in the canyon would be blocked for no reason fixed an issue where Body would sometimes fall out of a monorail tram during the ride fixed an issue where map waypoints would get stuck when dying right after getting an upgrade
