Update 1.2_04 is live!

A new update for Wave Rider has been released. This update includes bugfixes, UI improvements and physics tweaks. Here's the list of changes:

Fullscreen mode & resolution (Huge thanks to cosstab for reporting this bug!)

  • Revised Alt+Enter behavior; It now switches between window modes without resetting your resolution.
  • Removed leftover code from the old resolution cycle button.
  • Fullscreen toggle in options menu now accurately reflects current window state.
  • Resolutions are now listed from higher to lower.
  • Switching scenes no longer resets your screen settings.
  • Basically, a lot of things that acted weirdly were fixed.

UI Additions

  • Added a steering angle indicator.
    • The polarity icons (-/+) point you towards your next wave recharge.
    • The polarity icons and waves bar glow when you perform a recharge.

  • Pause menu can now be accessed during "The Choice".
  • Fixed music and sound volume slider ranges being unbalanced.

Physics

  • Fixed anti-drift compensation being enabled during intentional drifts. (Yes, really.)
  • Fixed a bug where fully countersteering was impossible during drifts.
  • Edited drift sound to be a seamless loop.
  • Reduced camera offset when drifting.
  • Gear shift sounds are back.

As always, thank you for playing, and have fun!
