Hello - I hope you are all well!
Build 43 Hot Fix:
When entering the build for the first time, the main menu wouldn't load after the "What's New" Screen.
Build 44:
Game Breaking:
Hint Popups- Fixed a glitch that could make the Hint Popups freeze under certain circumstances.
Quality of Life:
Pausing
- The Fan Matching Minigame now pauses the game while you're matching. This prevents pop-ups or problems from interfering with the Matching is happening.
- The Giant fading Pause button now only appears when you manually pause - not when the game is force-paused for instructions - although the small pause button at the bottom is greyed out during the instructions.
Employee Bays
- You can now close the Employee Bay if you want to keep the File up, but don't want to see the Bay.
- If you Open a clipboard, the Bay will automatically close, instead of shutting down the entire Employee File, and if you open the Bay back up, it will automatically close the clipboard
- If you hire/fire someone, or click on an active Alert (Sick, Walk-Out), the Bay automatically opens back up.
Instructions are great…now let me skip them!
Skip Tutorial:
- With this update, after you complete the tutorial for the first time (first time after this update - previous playthroughs won't trigger the "skip"), you will be able to skip it on future playthroughs.
- If you skip the tutorial, you select your Corruption Choice, then mom gives you a lump sum of money and leaves.
Remembering Your Pop Up Hints:
- If you're playing on the "default character", the game will remember which pop-ups have already been shown to you so you don't see the same ones every game. If you play under "guest", the hints will be reset for that run through and will only impact that player - not the main account.
- This will allow you to play the game in the future and only see new hints that you either haven't gotten to, or have been added more recently.
- If you do wish to reset the default hints, you can do so in the "settings" menu while you are playing an active default game and select "Reset Hints"
Well that's about it for this week's quick fix! I'm also preparing some things to hopefully have a DEMO up soon. It probably will contain the first 3 intro levels that unlock your Production Crew. It should give you a feel for the game, without unlocking most of the juicy stuff - but your saved game from the demo should travel forward into the main game if you choose to get that and continue!
