Hello again. I hope your week is going well! We have a technical update to share today.
General
•Game-wide performance improvements across all platforms!
•Fix: First gold producing dirt block in Plains would drop two coins on top of one another.
•Fix: Possible crash involving Mr. Hat Boss.
•Fix: Miscellaneous crash fixes.
•Fix: Inching past an open (but not rummaged through) treasure chest with the charge slash no longer snaps Shovel Knight back to the chest. Still hilarious.
•Devices: Linux, Mac and Windows support for SnesMayflashAdapter, Retrobit NES adapter, and Buffalo Famicom Controller. Welcome, native game padders!
Linux
•Game now respects SDL_AUDIODRIVER environment variable. Fixes some setups having no audio at all!
•Fix: Mail of Momentum providing an extra jump for Shovel Knight. Consider it a sneak peak at Plague Knight!
That's all for now! Thanks again for playing!
EDIT: Minor hotfix also going live which fixes an error with the Chaos Orb Relic (introduced just in this patch).
