- All skins can now change ingame audio, they can have custom music and custom hit sounds
=== Changes ===
- Temporarily removed the "Secret Life" Easter Egg due to legal issues.
- Updated how the game checks for Steam
- Submenus can now be exited by pressing the back button *Circle on PS, B on Xbox*
- The background in all scenes now moves
- Removed the controls menu from all scenes
- Skins with a price value of 0 are now unlocked on launch
- Background work for the Complete Collection code
- Even though the complete collection was delisted on itch, we're still cleaning up and fixing the code for it
- Updated the store manager and skinInShop manager
- Game audio now changes when specific skins are applied
- Can be disabled by disabling Easter Eggs in the settings menu
- Remade the "emotions" ball skin pack
- Renamed all Game Modes
- Advanced -> Table Ball
- Continuous -> Endless
- Survival -> Space Game
- Disabled old debug information
- Due to issues with the touch input in the game, we've disabled the ability to use it
- We're considering removing it entirely due to the removal of the Android version of the game and how little people use the game on touch-enabled devices
- Updated achievements
- Changed names and descriptions
- Updated most of their icons (should be more consistant)
- Unhid quite a few (We've decided that ones you work your way upto, ones for using game modes, and easy to get ones, should not be hidden)
- Consolidated the save/load options into their own menu
- This is the first part of eventually making multiple save files
=== Bug Fixes ===
- Fixed Steam Deck issues
- Needed to remove the "ingameconsole" asset from the game scenes
- Gonna see about fixing that soon
- Finally fixed "bumpers and ball invisible on main menu"
- Finally fixed "main menu game not running"
- Fixed "Skin applied on entitlement check"
- This means that when going through the skins menu, you should no longer have random skins applied
- Fixed an issue where some paid skins were automatically purchased
=== IMPORTANT ===
The SecretLife Easter Egg has been temporarily disabled.
