Time for an update!
Here is what's new with version 134. ːsteamhappyː
Steam Cloud
It's been a while since I wanted to create another save system for the game. More efficient, more flexible, and above all effortless for players.
That's why I'm very happy to announce that the game is now compatible with Steam Cloud, meaning that saves are automatically synchronized across multiple computers if needed.
I tested it myself and it works very well. I started a game on my desktop computer (running Windows), resumed the game on my laptop (running Linux) and then finished the game on the SteamDeck.
That said, as the save system has been rebuilt from scratch when you launch the update (v134), you'll need to uninstall the game completely first. In the future, however, you shouldn't have to do this. The game will merge the new files and the save file.
5 new cave levels
As mentioned in the last beta update posted in July earlier this year, I've added the first 5 levels of World 3 (Cave). These levels are now available in production, so there's no longer any need to use the beta branch.
In the meantime, I'm continuing to work on the next levels. I've removed the "All Cave levels completed" achievement, as until world 3 is completed this achievement doesn't really make sense. It will be added later, once development on this world is completed.
About translations
I've created an article in the game community about translations.
You can find the article here: A word around translations.
In summary, I've decided to remove the translations from the Steam store page because I plan to completely revise its content soon and also because I've decided to concentrate first on adding content to the game.
Existing translations will of course remain in the game. And once worlds 3, 4 and 5 are completed, I intend to create another shared file for the translations so that those who wish to help me translate the game into their languages can do so.
Bug fixes
As usual, this update comes with a bunch of small improvements here and there, as well as a few bug fixes that should enhance the gameplay experience.
Thanks for reading so far.
Talk to you later,
Antoine G.
