Hello👋

It's been a while and we've been hard at work on building out more of the game. In the meantime here is another small patch update for the demo! ✨

Demo Patch Notes 0.5.0

New Content

• Added to the credits screen

• Added some new sounds for cleaning

New Features

• Added a Zen mode that allows phasing through physics objects in levels

General Improvements

• Overhaul of the cleaning system under the hood is now complete; there aren't many visual changes to this (aside from dealing with seams between rooms better), but it should be more stable

• Improved the cleaning visuals of the game

• Improved stations with relaxed detection for usage

• Improved camera system making it more relaxed and added experimental transparency and hiding through / of walls and objects

• Added distortion effect to bristles of the robot

• Added music mixing system for transitions between levels

• Removed placeholder "hit" sounds

Bug Fixes

• Fixed cleaning tracking bugs over certain surfaces

• Fixed bug preventing level 4 from being completed

• Fixed robot rotation in cosmetics screen scaling with frame rate

• Fixed various focusing issues for input in the game

• Fixed audio not being set correctly on boot / re-entry to levels / frontend

• Fixed settings not properly loading / saving / applying consistently

Sorry for the feature and content light update, there are new features and new content in the pipeline but they're all a work-in-progress and largely slated for the release version of the game.

A big thanks to all of our players so far 😻

'Till the next one!
