Macs Maintenance and Mini Mines

Last week Whalegun was hit by the resistent Whale-flu so things were a bit slow. However today we're back with yet another update packed with more firepower and a long awaited fix for Mac OSX users!

Mini Mine Layer

Can't get enough mines? The brand new Mini Mine Layer to the rescue!

  • One-handed level 4 Explosive Weapon that fires 5 mines in a row.
  • Be careful: The mines are unstable and will explode before long!

Mac Fix

For quite some time, Mac users have reported consistent game freezes during the spacepod touchdown. A new version of Unity has now been made available to us, that appear to have resolved the issue. If you encounter any other problems, please let us know in the Steam Forums!

Balance and Fixes

  • Fixed problems with exiting buildings in local co-op in Vacation Resorts.
  • Players now start on the ground in each level as before.
  • Fixed enemies trying to run through forcefields in Staff Only areas.
  • The fence in start and end of Staff Only areas can now be shot open.
  • Weapons with sequencial attacks now show the number of attacks.
  • Fixed tooltips disappearing in World Map when using Game Controllers.
  • Joystick Aim now has 4 directions instead of assuming axes input.
  • Fixed enemies sometimes spawning inside entrances in Staff Only Area.
  • Fixed Item Crates being stuck and pushing items and players away.
  • The Gate in Arrival area no longer blocks view of enemies.
  • Tour Guide Umbrella now folds after blocking to better indicate its use.
  • Mines are now visible behind other objects.
  • Fixed enemies getting stuck in corners of Cave Adventure areas.

Up Next

We're currently working towards a Console port. We would like to support 4 players in local co-op for the launch, so were working on getting that ready as well. Finally we're working with a highly skilled marketing team who are working on a brand new trailer for the game, and it's looking really promising! So lots of exciting things going on, although the updates will be less regular in the near future.
