PATCH NOTES! Better menu, improved text skip, bugfixes

Patch Notes From 02/20/2017

Camera

  • There has been a major bug that caused the default camera speed to be at almost 0, this has now been resolved

Menu

The menu has gotten quite an overhaul. I have decided to change the floaty interface to a screen overlay. This improves readability and allows me to show the menu more reliably.

  • Menu is now an overlay that dims the screen
  • Menu can now be activated during text scenes with some minor exceptions
  • Latest Log now scales properly when there are too many lines instead of cutting them off
  • Fixed a bug that caused music and ambient volume to fall down to 20% when exiting the game when the menu is open (If you have encountered very loud sounds, that was the issue. Make sure to check the sound settings after this patch)
  • Quit Game no longer requires the player to keep holding a button. Press the exit key and accept to close the game.
  • Default Settings were messed up when the game was started for the first time, this has now been resolved

Text Scenes

  • It is no longer possible to skip text with B or SHIFT
  • You can now auto-complete text by pressing A/Space and start skipping text by holding A/Space
  • Fixed some smaller typos
  • Changed some sentences that were grammatically correct but sounded bad
  • Added some sentences to chapter 2 that might help finding the way to continue the main plot
  • It is no longer possible to select and edit the text by pressing TAB

Levels

  • Added a subtle hint to the exit gate of Kronos Bridge
  • Changed the size of a trigger in the second level
  • Updated several levels to be conform with the new menu and skip mode

Linux

  • It should now be less likely for the mouse cursor to show up, but unity can't be helped to show it once in a while. Opening the ingame menu (ESC) will hide the cursor again, should it still occur. I'll try and file a bug for Unity in the next days and maybe get them to give it a fix.

Recent Patch Notes

Also for those that haven't seen the patch notes from 02/14/17 (since I posted them in the discussions group, not in the news:

  • Fumiko now needs more time to start running when using a keyboard, improving the precision of walking controls for keyboard users
  • Automatic Camera rotation is now incremental in speed to avoid camera shaking when taking small steps
  • Fixed a typo in the playground
