Moonlight update 1.0.4 is live. This update is rather small as it mainly addresses a few bugs and tweaks. It does however have two new music tracks within the jukebox on the main menu, in preparation for something special. So before I get to this update's highlights, let's discuss ... interesting and intentional bugs.
I've made it no secret ... that Moonlight has secrets. There are goofy little signs that don't seem to make sense at first, there are doors that are locked, there is a cryptic message from an alien, and there is even a sign that clearly states the following ...
"The code for this door, is broke you see."
"I meant to fix it, but I really lacked sleep."
"I typed a two, it should have been a three."
"I’m just gonna leave it, please forgive me."
Now, since most of you following the game have most likely completed it, then you would know that this sign was written by the Master. It’s an intentional bug, and the door is indeed broken ... for now! As I was trying to explain above, I never had intentions to leave Moonlight as it is, I put all sorts of hidden stuff in the game. Some players have caught on to some of it, but most of it has probably been given the blind eye of confusion. There is also a character of certain interest and that is Inferno. I've received plenty of emails, and or questions about him. Why is he there, why does he not appear at the end of the game, why is he "The Lumpo of Fire"?
There will be an update to Moonlight within the future, expanding a bit on Inferno. There are some completely new areas, new Lumpos, and even some new mechanics to the game. Now Inferno's story will not be out in the open for everyone. As a matter of fact, this content will be for those players who really want more, and are not afraid to experiment. Most players will complete Moonlight as it is, and I'm ok with that. I mentioned a specific sign above, and it will be the key to this new adventure. So I hope I intrigued you a bit. You're going to want to be looking for update 1.1.0. It's a ways off since it adds quite a bit to the game, but it will be coming. Here is a very early preview, the art is very subject to change, as it's just the rough concept.
Back to this current update! The main highlights of update 1.0.4 are as follows.
- The default vertex mode has been changed to normal due to graphical glitches on integrated video cards.
- A bug was fixed where you could still pick up nuts for Buko after beginning Lanuno’s quest.
- The jukebox now displays the correct input information.
- Two new music tracks have been added to the jukebox in preparation for … something.
