The Early Access Update (Patch 1)

Stability, polish, and bug fixes!

Patch notes may contain spoilers for Story Mode, be warned.

The first big set of patch notes for the game, epic. This is just a minor update to address some bugs and unpolished issues. This update, and probably all of the updates before 0.2.000 are just going to be fixing, polishing, and re-balancing anything that didn't get enough attention during development. So let's get into what's changed since release!

  • Added "enemies digitized" stat.
  • Slimers now have an audio cue when they reform.
  • Updated crate sprites, added unique hit particles and bit sprites.
  • Updated poop sprites.

Bug Fixes

  • I forgot to update some cursor logic after I finished recording footage for the trailer (oops). That's fixed now.
  • Gluer sticks no longer freeze up if unable to charge at the player (I used an underscore instead of a dash, sad).

  • Fixed various bugs regarding small and medium slimers reforming.
  • Fixed a ton of bugs with digitizing enemies:

Story Mode

Bug Fixes

  • Leaderboard buttons now draw over chalk backgrounds.
