Hello! I have finally finished a fix for Combo Postage's achievement. This took some creative thinking and a lot of work- and it requires running a special new program- but this should work for almost all players, on both Windows and Linux. First, beat the default armadillo score of 1000. (You can check on this in the Records room.) If you're not sure how to do this, just try experimenting in Standard shifts. You need to play a certain way- specifically, avoid performing a common action... Once you figure that out, choose the 'Play Achievement Activator' option when launching the game. This will open a special program (with fun new music!) which will try to unlock the achievement for you. If it works, you will probably never need to use the achievement fixer again! Enjoy the achievement. I tried *very* hard to make sure this will work for everyone, but there could be issues I missed, so please get in touch in the comments if the achievement activator does not work. NOTES: - If you use a controller, you should be able to press the lower face button to use the achievement activator. - There is no built-in exit button for the achievement fixer. If you're playing on Steam Deck, you may need to exit using the Steam Overlay. - Due to engine issues, only 64-bit versions of the achievement fixer are available, and are included with the 32-bit versions of the game, too.

It's true! The 'Winter Update' is out over two years since the original release of Combo Postage. Let's get into the patch notes!

Patch Notes:

The Big Stuff:

• Challenge mode added! Instead of going for big combos, you'll need to clear cards with specific combos to get points.
• Diagnostics menu added to the Custom room. Track stats related to Custom shifts!
• Guides menu added to the Records room. Read up on fundamentals, advanced techniques, and strategy.
• Training room added! A hazard-free place to practice... and more?
• The soundtrack is now avaliable for purchase!
• There is now a Linux version of Combo Postage!

Smaller Stuff:

• The walljump mechanic (which sneaked into the original release as an oversight) has been given a proper animation and is now an official move.
• There is now a Summer/Winter seasonal cycle split across our world's year. Join Sue on her Summer break starting in our April, and her Winter break starting in our October. (This is based off of your system clock.)
• You can now view more chats between Sue and her coworkers.
• The main menu got some upgrades, including room/mode descriptions and extra visual flair.
• Bailing now speeds up the 'Shift Over!' screen.
• Swapped out instances of my old penname with my regular name.
• The 'new player' introduction has gotten an overhaul and allows key and gamepad rebinding.
• Addressed a rare bounce glitch which would leave boxes untaped.
• New visual flair for barely avoiding laser beams.
• Plus, various extra polish and such.

New Settings

• More Stripe Info: Toggle a new extra indicator of a box's fall-timing.
• Score Effect has been renamed to Effect Adjust.
• Clothes Style: Toggle between Sue's classic look and her new winter hoodie.
• Quick Wrap-Up: Toggle the sped-up 'Shift Over!' screen for ALL shifts, or just after bailing.
• Box 'Pause' Variant: Toggle an alternate timing avaliable for 'paused' boxes which affects all modes. A small indicator of which variant is active is visible in the bottom-right corner of the 'Shift Over!' screen.
• Walljump Style: Toggle if walljumping can be performed with the Action button, or if it can only be performed with a 'Flick-Tac' like in the original release.

• Run, jump, and climb with responsive three-button controls. Tape up boxes by bumping into them, then stomp to clear 'em out!
  
• Get combos by clearing multiple boxes at a time. Set up big combos by letting stacks pile up- just don't take too long to clear them...
  
• Two gameplay variants: Go for big combos in Standard, and match numbered cards with combos in Challenge!
  
• Runs are quick! When a hazard brings your shift to a close, just dust yourself off and jump back in when you're ready.
  
• Lots to do! Check your stats, set up a customized shift, chat with Sue's coworkers, and more.
  
• This game is pretty tough, but don't sweat it! You can focus on improving your personal best, go for bragging rights, or just have fun! There's no set ending to Combo Postage, so please play as long as you'd like. (Just not too long, OK?)
