Dynacat - Patch 1 |
Dynacat's first major patch has been released, and we hope it will also be the last. This patch contains the following updates and fixes:
- The tutorial stage has been updated to display important information on how to play the game. New sections have been added to the tutorial stage to give gameplay examples.
- The user interface elements have been updated to better support ultrawide (21:9 aspect ratio) monitors. We have not tested for 4:3 monitors and do not recommend using them.
- The game now pauses when the window focus is lost.
- The game now pauses when disconnecting the controller.
- If the active controller is disconnected during gameplay and then reconnected, the game will continue using the reconnected controller. This feature may struggle to work if you're playing musical chairs with a lot of controllers.
- We fixed an error in Spheron Orange where hitting the boss while tethered to an object would crash the game.
- We fixed the extra life in Basalt Barrens 2, which did not add to the life counter when picked up.
- We also fixed a variety of other small problems in different stages.
We hope you will enjoy playing Dynacat a lot more with these new updates.

Upcoming Update for the Dynacat Tutorial Stage |
One of our goals at Replayne is to release complete games on launch day. Games that never need to be patched or updated again. With this goal in mind, we made the decision to avoid releasing any patches to Dynacat unless we discovered a game-breaking bug that would ruin the experience for a lot of players.
After reviewing feedback from a lot of people who played Dynacat in the last month, we have determined that our game does have a game-breaking bug: The tutorial stage does not effectively communicate critical information players need to enjoy playing. We're sorry for that.
For players who want to enjoy the game right now, here are some of the instructions that will help you play the game:
- In speed mode, Dynacat runs automatically. Don't try to steer the character unless you really need to.
- Instead, look ahead for any upcoming signals or elements you want to interact with.
- Dynacat navigates complex structures automatically: Loops, corkscrews, twists and turns. Just let Dynacat run and focus your attention on upcoming jump or tether signals.
We know we can't reach most of our players through an online article, so we must explain the details in the game itself. In a future update, we plan to update the tutorial stage, inserting all of this information and more into relevant sections. The new update should help you understand everything you need to know before you begin the game.
Please be patient while we work on it, and we hope you enjoy playing Dynacat while you're waiting.

Dynacat - Beta Demo 2.0 - Patch Notes |
The following changes have been made between Beta Demo 1.1 and Beta Demo 2.0.
[h2]Gameplay[/h2]
- Improved player physics: The player changes directions more quickly during slower platforming sections, allowing for precision platforming. On flat ground, speed mode is activated by pressing a button after gaining enough speed.
- Updated the tether to throw projectiles at enemies in front of the player.
- Falling into a hole deals damage instead of automatically removing a life. If the player's health bar was full, they are returned to the last place they stood before falling.
[h2]Stages[/h2]
- Replaced the old tutorial stage with two different stages: One stage to teach basic controls and another to teach the mission system.
- Changed the life system: The game starts with a maximum of 3 lives. Finding a life item in a stage for the first time increases the maximum by one. Starting or restarting a stage will reset the life counter to the maximum value. In hard mode, the old rules still apply until the game has been completed.
- Improved level designs to make completing missions easier.
- Fixed a problem that occasionally caused the game to crash on Spheron Orange.
[h2]Graphics and menus[/h2]
- Updated the graphical style with outlines, sharper lighting and brighter reflections.
- Added a language screen when starting up the game for the first time.
Seeing this screen does not mean that your save files have been deleted!
- Updated the New Game screen. New games are created using the currently active options. You can set options for new save files before creating them.
- Added option and delete buttons to the file select screen to make them more accessible.
- For keyboard users, colored key icons are displayed in menu screens and reaction prompts to indicate which actions are expected.
[h2]Performance[/h2]
- Slightly improved stage loading times and removed freezing between menu screens.
- Greatly improved the loading time of the options screens.
[h2]Other fixes and improvements[/h2]
- Removed the dependency on the libglfw shared library from the Linux build.
- Fixed a variety of other small glitches.
This will be the final update to the Dynacat Beta Demo. Look forward to the complete version of Dynacat later this year!
