Hello everyone! Here's the 10th round of patches:
- Field of view (FOV) can now be modified from the advanced video menu. Minimum is 60, and maximum is 140.
- Unity's default resolution dialog may now be accessed by holding down Shift while launching the game from Steam.
- Removed restrictions on some more unconventional resolutions.
- Limited gamepad input to the first device, instead of all devices. This should hopefully remove some unwanted "noise" inputs.

Bug fix: One of the moving platforms in D-2 had a pathing error, which allowed players to bypass part of the puzzle.

Fixed a bug in C-8 where a piece of wiring floats away into space when you touch it. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that this is not a joke.

Here at Toasty Games, we know that a significant portion of players suffer from color blindness, and we understand how much of a struggle even the most simplistic visuals can be for these players. And this is why, as of our latest update, Parallax now includes a "Color-Blind Mode" option. Below is a side-by-side comparison of the game's graphics with Color-Blind Mode turned off, and turned on, respectively. This may not look like much if you have regular vision, but to a player suffering from color blindness, the difference can be astounding. http://imgur.com/aw0P63K This is just one of the many ways that Toasty Games is making games more accessible for everyone. Except those who have difficulty reasoning about parallel spatial dimensions.
Hello puzzlers, Yet another round of patches!
- Added a DeadZone property for gamepads. Not displayed in-game, but it's there in Parallax.ini if you want to tweak it.
- Added a pure red/blue color scheme because somebody wants their eyes to bleed.
Times in the pause and summary screens now displayed to millisecond precision. >=D
Hello puzzlers! Parallax is now available on the Humble Store and itch.io! In case you missed our Steam launch week sale, the game will be 10% off for another week in these stores!

Hello puzzlers, Here's our fourth round of changes (they're getting smaller, yay!):
- Bug fix: Unfinished signal impulses are not counted toward level action count when level is finished.
- Bug fix: Default game resolution chooses the combined virtual desktop resolution for multi-monitor setups.
- Chapter transitions are now completely bypassed when in "speedrunner" mode.
Hello puzzlers, Here's a summary of our third (and very small) round of patches:
- Bug fix: Game gets stuck after the splash screen on some Macs.
- Bug fix: Level D-4 has an excessively large gap which allows for exploits.
- Bug fix: Maximum allowed time step was too large, so people with really low frame rates could walk through solid objects.
- Bug fix: Level perfectness stats and achievements were not ignored in speedrunner mode.
- Added a color scheme button on the home page, so people are less likely to miss it.
Hello puzzlers, A few more changes!
- Anti-aliasing level can now be set to 8.
- Tweaked the "blocker" and associated wiring in level B-5 such that it is less confusing to look at in the beginning, and its purpose is easier to make sense of later on.
- Major bug fix: A jump can be performed at any time while falling, leading to lots of possible exploits.
- Added a "Speedrunner" mode in the gameplay settings, which restores the previous bug... if you're into that sort of thing... you weirdos.
- Converted statistics system to be compatible with future, non-Steam, DRM-free versions of the game.
- Slightly increased angle from which you can activate a terminal.
Hi everyone! As some of you may have noticed, there were a few patches in the last couple of days. Here is a summary of what changed:
- Tweaked level B-4 to be less "busy-work" and more puzzle.
- Made gamepad menu navigation more stable and accurate.
- Made menu navigation buttons for the gamepad configurable.
- Bug fix: Incorrect level action requirements.
- Bug fix: Some objects move in slow motion on certain computers with certain European language settings.
- Bug fix: Crosshair gets stuck in "busy" mode if level is reset right before dying.
- Bug fix: Menu loses focus after "chapter unlocked" dialog when using a gamepad.
- Bug fix: Can't bind numpad keys when numlock is on.
- Bug fix: Binding to space bar freezes the game.
- Bug fix: Tutorial messages can get stuck on a message.
- Swapped levels B-3 and B-5.
