Were back! And weve got an update for you

More upgrades, dyslexia-friendly fonts, and other small but cool additions, thats what this is all about! Were still working hard currently on T-1000, but soon enough well be getting back in the Writers Room to start working on Chapter 3 and, perhaps, maybe even Chapter 4

Key Changes

MORE UPGRADES

• Running Speed: Adds +10% to the player's running speed.

Running Speed Upgrade Showcase

• Enemy Vision Cone: Makes enemy vision cones +10% more narrow per level.

Enemy Vision Cone Upgrade Showcase

ACCESSIBILITY SETTING: Dyslexia-Friendly Font

Dyslexia-friendly Font Showcase This is an accessibility setting that modifies Notes and other applicable game text to use a font that is designed to be more readable to players with dyslexia. This can be applied to multiple other sections of the game, and if anyone wants to give us any feedback for how we can utilize this setting, let us know!

GRADE REQUIREMENTS

Showcase of Grade Requirement UI If youve beaten a level, you can now see what Level Time you need to beat to get a specific grade. Good stuff. And finally perhaps the biggest and most requested change of them all

KEYCODE PANELS NOW HAVE A CLEAR BUTTON!

*Significant Change. Just because I know a "little bit" of English doesn't mean I'm fluent in it.

[2.2.0] - 2024-02-17 ADDED

• Running Speed Upgrade added: Adds +10% to the player's running speed.
• Enemy Vision Cone Upgrade added: Makes enemy vision cones +10% more narrow per level.
• Dyslexia-Friendly Font setting added: Changes Notes and other applicable game text to use a font that is designed to be more readable to players with dyslexia.

FIXED

• 1-1 Stage 4: Button springs were incorrectly configured, causing buttons to get potentially stuck in the activated position even when not interacting with anything physical. (Shoutouts to CGDannyB and Chris_RV2 for finding this potential bug during our Dev Talk, check it out by the way!)
• Lasers phasing through objects that are right in front of them.

KNOWN ISSUES

• Playing a level for the first time on the Steam build might result in slow loading times. Were looking into potential solutions for them.
• Playing the game with a Switch Pro controller may lead to issues controlling the player's character. This is seemingly an issue with the Unity Input System, and sadly out of our control.
• Playing the game with a Dualshock 4 controller or on Steam Deck while having a keyboard connected may lead to issues involving controlling the game with the Keyboard. This is also seemingly an issue with the Unity Input System, which is beyond our control.

Changelog formatting is partly based on Keep a Changelog (https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/). Version numbers are formatted as such

• Major releases usually include extensive visual & technological additions, like new campaign chapters and/or major new features, or overhauls of significant systems that might invalidate older game versions, such as save files.
• Minor releases include visual & technological additions and changes that are significant but likely do not include anything that may invalidate older versions of the game.
• Hotfix releases mostly include quality-of-life changes or fixes to other bugs and issues.
