Big change to your summer: fall is here! In Skulls of the Shogun, anyway. :) Please enjoy the Land of Golden Harvest, but harden your skills... for soon, winter is coming.
Lots of little fixes also included in the update, including a big fix to make the leaderboards more worthwhile - per-difficulty leaderboards! Previously you could play on casual difficulty and your score would get included right alongside the regular normal difficulty, which meant you could get some suspiciously good scores. :) These are tracked independently now. Full fix details below.
-------------------------------------------------------------
beta 1.007 - 7/17/13 - changelist 7550
-------------------------------------------------------------
Unlock Land of Golden Harvest (4 levels), with developer commentary.
Track level clear times separately for casual & normal difficulties, and upload to level specific leaderboards accordingly. Overall campaign clear time reflects proper time based on selected difficulty.
Fix for cloud load of campaign options when auto-signing in
Fix for loading save game in post-collection mode area (like beach 2.3) resetting unit move left.
Remove line of code from attack action from unused code that could *maybe* (albeit not v likely) cause projectile to attack to not complete...
Better detection of whether Steam is running and logging of steam errors
Fix crash that could occur with host existing online match, and when restarting a new match
Prevent crash while showing emblems. Make sure unequip emblem does not show as "locked" and is full color
Transfer cleansing shrine damage targets in Skulls Anywhere to ensure 100% sync and prevent related issues
Fix input handling bug when dialog transitions screen re-triggering dialog (like when using load Game from campaign menu).
Award XP for finishing a season, getting gold skulls, killing Yuki and the Shogun of the Dead
Joystiq says "...we found Skulls of the Shogun to be an absolutely enjoyable experience – so much so that we gave it a perfect score." It's fast-paced turn-based strategy inspired by Advance Wars, and supercharged with fighting-game flare! Enter the Samurai Afterlife and join forces with vibrant ghost-samurai warriors, magical animal monks, and mustachioed samurai generals. And now Skulls of the Shogun tastes even better in the Bone-a-Fide Edition, which adds a brand-new episode, the new Tanuki Monk, and a heaping helping of new features!
