We have been very busy the last few weeks, focusing on the Steam version of the game. This is why there hasn't been any update of the Pocket Edition on iOS and Android - yet.

The Pre-Alpha PC Press Build is soon to be ready for Press and Youtubers to enjoy! It was supposed to be ready within the next few days, but we have taken the decision to delay it a bit more.

For the next development update, during October, the Pre-Alpha PC Press Build will be ready.



Movement & Controls Rework
Instead of releasing the Pre-Alpha PC Press Build in the next few days, we took a hard decision:

Player movement and controls on PC were working OK. But they weren't perfect. And that was the issue. After a lot of hard work and time spent fixing issues, tweaking and trying to make them perfect with the current system, we finally decided that it would be best for our players to actually completely rework the movement, jump, gravity, jetpack and moving platforms system.

What does this mean?

Well, as we were adding features and perfecting the player experience, the current system proved to have flaws. Flaws that couldn't be fixed. There would still be situations where we'd be unhappy with the result. That comes from the fact that this game was first started a long time ago, and was not ready to support the new features we have added since.

This means that the entire controls and movement system has been restarted from scratch. It's a long process, and a lot of work, yes, but it had do be done at some point.

The reason behind this decision is that it was too hard to achieve a smooth, reactive and completely bug-free experience with all 3 input systems: touch controls, keyboard & mouse combo and gamepad. We want YouTubers and Beta-Testers to have the best experience possible for the early PC build.

After this huge rework, the result will be:

• Global movement feel and experience will be the same regardless of input system: touch, gamepad or keyboard & mouse


• Acceleration and deceleration of the character will feel much more natural on all platforms


• Jump will be smoother


• Additional PC-exclusive features will feel more polished


• Bugs regarding moving platforms will be fixed


• Moving platforms will now give velocity to the player and objects placed on them


• Objects will now have momentum and will be thrown with player's current velocity


• Falling from a platform or ground will result in a smoother fall trajectory


• Jetpack will feel more smooth and gravity applied while using the jetpack will feel more realistic


• We will have the same experience with all 3 input models
