Hi all,
We've just hit the magic button on Glitchspace's transition from early access to full release. Thanks to all of you for supporting us along the way and for putting up with a lot of waiting, your patience was super appreciated!
A couple of things we wanted to address with this post:
- We're going to be putting the soundtrack up for sale on the store: with most of the dev stuff out of the way we can now put that together for you.
- The Linux version is still on an Alpha. This afternoon we discovered that performance on multi-threaded machines was being crippled by an engine upgrade we did last month to fix UI issues. What we didn't realise is that the new version of Unity we're using had this issue on this platform. Rather than having a Linux build that is a complete stutter to play, we had to make the decision to postpone it until we upgrade Unity, which we shall be doing tomorrow! Apologies to all of the Linux players, that was bad oversight on our part and is pretty poor on us, so we apologize completely.
- Next up for us is getting the sandbox mode back in as well as looking at bringing the Oculus support to CV1 since the version we were using is completely dead. For the time being the Rift support has been removed. We'll post an update on both of these things soon.
NOTE:
- When you first start the game, Glitchspace has a low resolution. We're going to patch this so it starts at the highest res. At present you just need to set it to a higher res in the settings menu.
- If anyone runs into any issues, just let us know and we will look into it for you.
Thanks again for everyone's support! You all helped make this happen!
Space Budgie.
