Hello everyone!
This is the final stretch, I've gone through the bug reports you sent me. Thanks so much, you caught some things I wasn't expecting.
In any case, thanks to you, v1.26.0 is in excellent shape, I hope I won't need to release a patch version a week later.
This Week's Recap
As planned, bugfixes, and I did a few. Some mods had fields that weren't filled in, and that could cause a bug during loading. Nothing serious though, the game would just load the mod without complaining too much, but it would still raise an error. So I reviewed and corrected my work, and the game now does additional checks before trying to load a mod. And if fields are missing it will continue without throwing an error this time.
Another bug, more annoying this time, concerned promotions. When you put a game on sale, and it happened that you had a port of that same game but it wasn't published yet, then that caused a problem, and the promotion wasn't correctly applied. So thanks to you I was able to fix that and now it's good, you can do as many promotions as you want without errors.
Still in the fixes, this concerned devkits. Actually, if you sent devkits to some competitors but not all, then the game wouldn't process your order correctly and might not send any devkits. Well, to err is human, and this time I tested, it works great.
What's Next
Well what can I say except that I'll continue to collect your bug reports and fix them as quickly as possible so you have the best gaming experience possible. But beyond that I'll continue to gather your feedback and suggestions for future versions of City Game Studio, and especially for v1.27.0.
I've had a lot of work on City Game Studio marketing lately. Actually, the game has been selected for several festivals, some on Steam, and that requires extra work to create all the assets and do communication around the game. In any case, I hope this will help introduce City Game Studio to more people, and if not, well that's okay, I'll keep working on it!
Well, that's already it, I know this announcement is a bit less substantial than the others, but you're used to it by now, when we approach the update, I mainly do fixes to stabilize the game.
Anyway, see you very soon for v1.26.0!
In the meantime take care of yourselves
