Chances are very high that this release candidate will simply get renamed and released as 1.0. Which is good, because we're very close to release :P!
I've fixed some straggling annoyances and bugs in this release. None of them were terrible issues, but I'd rather push these fixes out now than after release. They're a nice bit of polish and testing is good.
Come check out Cloudbase Prime's official Discord server! It's great if you want to talk about Cloudbase Prime, or just hang out with me on a chat server.
I've been updating store pages, the website, and piles of other web stuff to get ready. It's annoying but exciting work. Also, the loading icons on cloudbaseprime.com are now crudely animated fixbots! Yesss.
Full change list:Fixed:
player no longer shoots after respawning or loading a level
going back and forth between the mouse and gamepad works in the options menu now (really helps Steam Controller users!)
move tutorial text for gamepads/joysticks improved (no longer lists individual stick axes)
in-game tutorials no longer enable the cursor before the actual tutorial opens
Improved the 4-2 submenu in the level picker: buttons are more readable now, 4-2:score attack button now hides properly.
increasing auto-quality requirements to be more in-line with beta behavior, cleared old auto-quality data (this will result in one slightly slower startup, but will be cached after that!)
Your shift on a gas giant mining platform does not go as planned. Move terrain to clear paths, defeat enemies, and launch yourself skyward. Shoot robots while jumping. A decent Monday.
Find new weapons and powers for your robot suit as you descend into the colorful clouds of Cloudbase Prime. Discover robots of varying danger, fight giant bosses, and swim in huge floating jellyfish. Learn to tolerate the plural form of "jellyfish".
