Update 1.0.0.16 adds controller vibration and visual accessibility features to the game, as well as fixing some minor bugs.
Controller Vibration
If you're playing Bubbles the Cat with a controller with vibration functionality, you should notice this is now supported for most in-game actions!
- Controller vibration can be turned on or off in Options -> Control Options. By default, it's enabled.
- Please note that this feature is only active whilst using a controller to play the game - this is to prevent you from jumping out of your seat when your controller vibrates and you're not expecting it!
Visual Accessibility Options
These options can be found in Options -> Display Options -> Visual Accessibility Options. These can all be changed mid gameplay without requiring you to back out to the main menu and take effect as soon as you select them.
- Change Laser Colour - Should aid players with colourblindness.
- Screen Flashes - Although used sparingly and never with a quick repeating pattern, some players may wish to eliminate all screen flashes entirely.
- Background Detail - Colourblindness or being distracted by animated elements may make the game challenging to play for some players. Consider using this option to reduce background detail.
- Food Animation - Some players may find the flashing cat food animation distracting. This will completely disable this animation without impacting gameplay.
Difficulty Balancing
A small selection of levels very early in the game have had their par times adjusted to be slightly easier to attain - these were a little out of step with the overall difficulty progression.
- World 1-8 par time increased from 27.5 to 29 seconds.
- World 1-10 par time increased from 31.5 to 33 seconds.
- World 1-11 par time increased from 12 to 12.5 seconds.
Bug Fixes
- Slightly widened trenches in World X-9 to make these less nightmarish to use.
- Fixed an issue where pursuing spike walls were playing their sound at full volume. This now varies based on your distance from the wall.
- It is now possible to use the keyboard to back out of the controller rebind screen.
