Dear Spud Customs Community,
First, I want to express my heartfelt thanks for your patience and support. This year has thrown some unexpected challenges my way, including an unplanned hospital stay since October that disrupted our development timeline. Figuring out how to continue working on Spud Customs from the NICU wasn't exactly in our project plan, but your continued enthusiasm for the game on Discord, Twitch, BlueSky, and here on Steam has been a real source of motivation during this difficult time.
What We're Fixing in 1.0.2
We've heard your feedback loud and clear, especially regarding some frustrating bugs in the story mode. Our primary focus for the upcoming 1.0.2 update will be:
Critical Fixes
- Story Mode Interruptions: Fixing the issue where gameplay continues in the background during story sequences
- Missing Documents: Resolving the bug where passports sometimes don't appear after story segments
- Visual Layering: Correcting z-ordering issues that cause visual elements to display incorrectly
- Game State Reset: Ensuring proper reset of game variables between different game modes and sessions
Quality-of-Life Improvements
- Skippable Dialogue: Adding the ability to advance through story sequences more quickly
- Better Visual Guidance: Making important interactive elements (like the megaphone) more obvious
- Tutorial Enhancements: Creating clearer guidance for new players
- Missile System Refinements: Improving the border runner system to be more intuitive
Looking Ahead
Beyond 1.0.2, we're already planning future enhancements for 1.0.3 and beyond:
- Proper save points in story mode
- Additional accessibility options
- Expanded difficulty settings
- More engaging feedback and environment systems
