Can be found in Options>Settings -changed default online mode to "Private" (may have to edit settings if you've changed status before this update) -fixed bug that made steam lobby stay open longer than intended after character selection -fixed bug that online preferences were not saving correctly -Sorry to Darius.Black and a few others for us jumping into your games unexpectedly trying to test

Hello Thieves, I know it has been a long time since the last update. We have not stopped development but are getting close to our final release. This update has two huge features that took most our time since the last update and since they are so big, may come with more bugs that need work. Since there is only so much 2-3 people can test we have decided to open the update in a separate BETA branch to help with testing. After a short time in the BETA branch we will push the update to the live public branch. The first of this is the conversion from running off your computer's FPS to delta time. This in itself brings a lot of bug fixes with menus and different monitor's frequencies but also improves performance on lower end pc's. Please report all bugs that have anything to do with timing or frame count in order to help out. The second big update is ONLINE CO-OP. We honestly had not planned on this but with the many comments that this game needed it we decided to incorporate it into Mini-Thief. Again, this is early stages and we have been testing for over a month but there is only so much a small staff can do so we are looking to the player-base to report any bugs so we can fix them before the push to the public branch. Online Co-op is only available for the Story Mode, so you will not be able to play Custom, Workshop maps or go to the pawn shop with anyone else.

Join BETA branch

-Right Click on Mini Thief in Game Library -Click Properties -Click Beta tab -In drop-down box click "beta" branch -Game should update or Queue for update

Online Co-op

-To opt-out of online co-op go to Settings and set "Online" to OFF. Host -Play a game like normal single player game. -You automatically are open to new incoming players starting at (but not limited to) the "Player Select" screen. -You receive all rewards and punishments from finishing a level -Be wary of Griefers Client -Select "Play Game" -Select "Join Game" -You will automatically search for a game -Joins host wherever they are in the progress of the level -Once you finish you will be brought back to a waiting screen but you are still connected to the same Host. -You receive all rewards but no punishment for being the client.

Version 1.2

-Converted all speeds to run off fps to delta time (also SHOULD fix menu issues) -Many performance improvements -Changed Pause Menu to actually pause game -Changed Level Progression: *you now unlock next level regardless of difficulty completed *unlock up to same difficulty level as level completed -Online co-op implemented - Story mode only -Added Text chat for online play

Hello Thieves, Sorry for the slight issue. Most importantly, updating all Workshop items has been fixed so feel free to go nuts with house creation. Hotfix changes are listed below.

1.13.1

-Fixed Right-click not deleting in editor. -Fixed Workshop item not updating properly. -Limited Editor zoom in/out.

[ 2017-10-09 01:14:07 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello Thieves, I know a lot of time has gone by since our last update but its been a wild Summer. Firstly, a special thanks to everyone that provided feedback. There has been some gameplay updates but most of the time spent has been on the House Editor and the newly added Workshop support. The reason for the length of time was that we did not want to release an update with already known bugs and shoddy Workshop support, so we finally got the game to a state that is ready for the public. Unfortunately, due to Game Maker's limited file system control, full workshop support is only available to Windows users. We will continue working towards support for our Linux users and will try getting a hotfix out as soon as we can. Workshop has been implemented so that no prior knowledge is necessary to contribute. It is extremely easy to upload and update a house on your workshop so all you need to do is come up with crazy houses! Stranga and I have uploaded a few houses to the workshop in order to test various features, so whereas you may download them.... Don't expect much because they are ONLY for testing and will probably be deleted soon.

v1.13

-New awareness system for Thief; NPCs behind walls are harder to see. -Insurance now saves money. -Cleaned up many, many, many issues in House Editor mode. Both editor and Play mode. -Added Workshop support for House Editor; Windows only (working on file system issues with linux) -Added Workshop option to "Play Game" menu -Updated Alert graphic to be more noticeable -Now possible to lose NPCs with decoys and hiding -Fixed Main menu text box bugs -Fixed bug that prevented NPCs from catching player while trying to escape -Improvements to Custom Level menu -Fixed hiding bug

Upload to Workshop

-Build a house (duh) -SAVE the house! -Open Editor menu and select "Publish" -if it is a new workshop item select "Publish" -if you would like to update an existing item select "Update" -Once the progress stats disappear, you are done -New items being uploaded generally take about 5-10 minutes to display on Workshop -Updated items are almost instant -Update the House's Workshop page with details and more photos if you'd like

Subscribe/Play Workshop Items

-Search Mini Thief's Workshop Page -Click Subscribe -When download is done start Mini Thief -Go to "Play Game" -Select "Workshop" -A list of all your Workshop items should display so just pick the house Whereas we have tested Workshop, there still may be bugs so if you come across any please report them to the Bug Reports sub-forum. Thanks and Enjoy!

Hello Thieves, I apologize about the delay of announcements , but we are still worku b g in th3 game and drawing closer to the finish line. After we finish fixing the bugs with workshop, the game will be given a quick polish ready for release. We havn't abandoned the project and we will keep working on it even after it's release. But we will be starting a new game after Mini Thief and will keep everyone posted about that as well. And again, we do apologize for the delay of announcements and hope to finish the game very soon.

Hello Thieves, Not much has changed, we are taking the time to iron out some of the details rather than continuing to add content. Hopefully fixing things like bugs, crashes, and other reasons people have not been able to play yet. But this is just a small update that needed to go out. Please post any new bugs in the Bugs Report thread.

v1.010.4

-Updated Demo to latest build -Fixed crash when starting Story Mode right after Searching for online game -Fixed crash in House Editor -Various fixes for bugs/glitches

[ 2017-04-26 16:58:41 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello everyone, We apologize about being quiet these last few months. We're still working on the game, rest assured. We have been overwhelmed with work from our outside jobs, and had to put development on a hold for a bit. We've been working on bits and pieces in our free time and should be back onto the development schedule very soon. Stranga,

[ 2017-03-26 22:37:07 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello Thieves! We have pushed the new Online portion of Mini Thief to the default build due to the lack of Bug Reports (hopefully its a good sign). So all versions of the game should work with the Steamworks API networking. At the moment, there is only randomized matchmaking. Have also fixed various bugs and addition a few things here and there. Check back for any updates on the list.

Alpha 1.10.3

-Fixed Pawn Door crash (Halloween Door) -Fixed custom map crash when no maps available -Fixed losing money if exiting through pause menu in tutorial -Changed flashlight to on by default -Changed online to use matchmaking, using Steamworks API (all branches) -Added "Skip Dialogue" option to cutscenes (Esc/Start) -Fixed issue where closed doors would not break NPC line of sight -Removed "0" from the countdown timer -Fixed bug when Music would not play when an NPC starts in the level -Fixed bug in House Creator, decorations not saving -Fixed security camera bug. -Changed objects in House Creator to have a static depth to avoid layering issues. You can still edit depth by selecting the object and scrolling up and down.

Hello everyone! We have a temporary fix to the door in the pawnshop, which you can still access the achievement. The fix is in the online beta version (The previous post has instructions oh how to access the beta) which is free for everyone. This will be implimented in the next update along with a few other things.

[ 2017-01-27 05:18:43 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello thieves! I am happy to say that we are opening our new online pvp beta up for testing! You're all invited to test the beta! We feel that having more people test the online feature will be more beneficial to impliment new and improved features to online gameplay.

How to Access Online Beta:

To acces the online beta you need to open the games properties in your game library. From there travel to the beta tab and enter the password "PrepareToCrash". Once entered select to onlinebeta from the dropbox above and the game should update. You will have sucessfully updated the beta when the game says mini thief online beta in your library. To all testers, if you could please report any bugs or glitches you find it would help us greatly and me much appreciated.

Happy Holidays, Thieves! 'Tis the season for thievery. We bring you an big update before the big day. Check out the Changelog below for the details. Also as discussed we will be switching online mode to Steamworks API Network which means no more IP entering. Shouldn't be much longer as the connections and the gameplay are all synced up and just need to incorporate rules and structure back into the PvP mode; i.e. Lobbies, Role switching (owner/thief). This biggest change in this update is the introduction to our House Creator. Hate our levels? Make your own, save it, then play it! It is very much in its beginning stages so I wouldn't be surprised if there are bugs and crashes but it is very functional in its current state. At the moment, we have not set up Workshop with the game but it is on our to-do list so we're hoping that won't take long either. Though you can't share your houses through Workshop, all houses you create are saved locally into a single .ini file so you can always take it upon yourself to share until the Workshop is up and running. All houses are saved to the game's local application data folders (i.e. Windows - %APPDATA%LocalMini_ThiefCustom Houses).

v1.09

-Can now sneak past trip wires -New cutscenes -Added scrolling level select menu -New Hat -Fixed PvP controls bug -Changed font -New Level Added - Train -Fixed menu control issue with controller -Added House Creator House creator is best used with mouse and keyboard. Up/W and Down/S change asset categories (Walls, floors, searchables). Left/A and Right/D changes to a different model (wood walls, kitchen walls, etc..). You must place a player spawner somewhere. Placing NPCs can be tricky at first (hopefully testing will determine better ways), there are two categories; Normal and Timed. Normal spawns them immediately, Timed spawns them when the countdown is up. In order to create a patrol path for an NPC, switch to the select tool, select the NPC, then click the path you want it to go. press Delete to remove the path and Esc to deselect the NPC.

Got and idea for a Mini Thief level?

Hey everyone! Here's where I'd like to get the Mini Thief Community involved with the game developing process. We are in need of some level ideas. We have a few under the belt at the moment but we would like to hear what you guys would like to see in level design/theme. We want to include as many levels as we can in the full release. Now not all ideas will be considered but we will pick the best for full release and possibly others for future updates post full release. I look forward to see what you guys come up with. :)

Hello Thieves! Been a couple weeks since the last update but we've made a lot of changes. Introducing new level, tools, and traps that should change gameplay drastically. Also one of the biggest changes is randomized levels. There are now some randomization to level; NPCs MAY no longer follow a given path and security items locations have been mixed up and randomized so its very unlikely to have the same experience twice. We have also added new hats/costumes that can be changed in the dressing room in the pawn shop as well as netcode optimizations. A large change we have done is to the safe you can buy in the pawn shop. We have drastically lowered the price of the safe however is only a ONE TIME USE. This is to make it act like an insurance system if you are unsure if you will succeed the next level, spend some money and buy some insurance. All change you can view in the changelog. Hope you enjoy!

Alpha 1.08

-Added 2 New Level -Added Night Vision Goggles to Shop -New Hats added -New Secret Hat added -Added 2 secret costumes -Fixed cutscenes skipping. Press a key to continue -Added lighting to the Police station level -Added more easter eggs -Fixed issue with Player getting stuck after searching an object -Fixed placement of the unlocked text and lock icon above doors -Aligned font letters better -Cameras that find you have an exclamation mark above them -Fixed security guards in bank running into the abyss -Fixed level skipping bug -Fixed using items while ingame pause menu is active -Disabled tool selection when ingame pause is active -Disabled tool usage when player is hiding -Change End level and title Animations -Added option to visit Pawn Shop after each level -Randomized patrols for Difficulties 2 and 3 -Increased Tool icon Hud spacing -Fixed cutscene fade issue -Enabled controller for online PvP (must start match with controller) -Added online "Alert" graphic to offline as well in order to see how far the noise travels -Added lights to Security Cameras -Slight changes to AI -Added sprite to show you what loot you picked up -Trip wires can now run in any direction, Online and Offline (look out for future updated levels!) -Changed Safe mechanic.
