Update 1.21

Hello Hypatians!

Here's some things you might have missed since 1.16:

  • Patched in strafing for locomotion!
  • Added in always-run (to be used with the aim-slowdown functionality (VR only for now).
  • Some things that were still missing got zapped back into existence! 🌩
  • A place to plant seeds has appeared. You'll need a magic one for it to grow...
  • Updating the Game Engine to version 4.22.1! And a new population widget to help find where people are.
  • Beta ticket now goes to a public test level, where all sorts of things get tested! You can get to the beta area of your choosing from there.
  • You can now wear hats across areas!
  • Fishing rod has been added, though it's quite twitchy. Catch one of three new fishes!
  • Adding coins in Oculus should be less likely to fail if Oculus is being slow.
  • Elevators have been installed in the Hotel lobby and Du Nul theater! :wheelchair:
  • Sodium should now ignite again when thrown into water.
  • You can now see your experience and money even in the main menu! What's next, a working Inventory? 😮
  • Many small tweaks and bug fixes

For 1.21 we have:

  • Bugs have been given a new color, which can sometimes help finding them! Also, submitting bug reports in-game should work more properly again.
  • Fishies aren't so energetic on land.
  • Double-barreled pop-gun will actually hit the targets on the lake now.
  • Fixed players always getting the level up notification when entering the game (and occasionally being showered with gifts).
  • Many items are now more usable in Mouse and Keyboard! Things like, the spray cans, sports balls, cameras, and many more can now be snapped into view with the F-key!
  • A new item appears, the Sound Recorder Button, which lets you record a 15-second message!
