Some explanations:
Hello everyone,
Before anything, I want to inform you that I've finally fixed the most important issues! You will find the list at the bottom.
Secondly, I've started working on the translation and I will do my best to deliver it as soon as I can.
And last but not least, I want to apologize for the complete lack of updates. I will give some explanations below:
I've read almost all your feedbacks since I've published the game and I knew for a long time that it had issues. In reality, I couldn't find the time and the energy to open the project after all this time because I knew how the code was. Hacker Simulator is my very first project and I didn't had the experience that I have today when I worked on it. We can't really tell by just looking at the game, but the code is a mess and I found it very difficult to go back to it and understand it all.
Today it's a completely different story. Every person who has bought the game has contributed to giving me the opportunity to use my time to learn everything I've learned so far, and I can't thank you enough.
I've learned so much, from game design, core principles of game development, to being able to understand most of the multiplayer principles for example, and I intend to use this knowledge to bring you some fun experiences in my next titles!
Finally, here is the patch note:
Patch note:
General
- Enabled Steam Cloud.
- Added a new setting to invert the Y axis. You can find it under the control settings, the name is pretty clear! :)
- Fixed an issue where an exploit allowed us to bypass folder encryption by using the autocomplete feature with the CAT and GET commands.
New task bar feature
- Added a task bar functionality to the computer, allowing us to keep shortcuts to the windows we open and to minimize/restore them as we want.
It will make the navigation a lot easier!
User Interface
- Added a new setting for User Interface scaling, you can find it under the graphic settings, it allows you to set a custom scale for the user interface, so you will now be able to see correctly at higher resolutions.
- Reworked the User Interface so it is now responsive to every screen resolutions.
- Fixed an issue where the User Interface sometimes had some offset, completely preventing us to interact with it. (The call from the beginning for example...)
- Fixed an issue where the game resolution was still the same after starting the game on a different monitor.
Main and Pause Menus
- Reworked the Main Menu and the Pause Menu so it is responsive to every screen resolutions.
- Fixed an issue where the Main Menu was not scaled correctly after a resolution change, preventing us to interact with it unless we removed our setting save file.
Window dragging functionality
- Reworked the window dragging functionality.
- Fixed an issue where clicking on the header bar of a window was not correctly detected, preventing us to drag windows.
Focus on terminal windows
- Reworked the focus on terminal windows so we are now able to focus on them by clicking anywhere in them, and not only on the command line!
- Fixed an issue where we could focus on a terminal window only by clicking its header bar.
- Fixed an issue where the cursor was not going at the end of the line after using the autocomplete feature.
