Quadrilateral Cowboy July 2025 updateA couple fixes for Quadrilateral Cowboy:
- Recording crash fix. There was a crash issue caused by the recorded events. Recorded events need to be initialized with default values, and this was sometimes not happening. This is now fixed.
- Fixed startup issue with Mac build. The Mac build was not starting correctly due to a file being in the wrong folder. This is now fixed.
Thanks to Ethan Lee & Jesper Jensen for this update
[ 2025-07-18 18:17:54 CET ] [ Original post ] Update 009: The Video UpdateThe game had some video issues... they're now fixed! Big huge thanks to Ethan Lee for making this update happen
Fixes
Fixed fullscreen issue. There was an issue where switching to fullscreen would result in the screen extending beyond the boundaries of the monitor. This is now fixed.
Fixed desktop resolution issue. There was an issue where changing the game resolution would affect the size/resolution of the operating system desktop. This is now fixed.
Windowed mode issue. There was an issue where switching to windowed mode would sometimes position the window beyond the boundaries of the monitor. The window position now defaults to the center of the screen.
Brightness issue. There was an issue where adjusting the video brightness option would affect the brightness of the operating system desktop. This is now fixed.
[ 2025-06-18 22:35:58 CET ] [ Original post ] 64-bit updateThe Mac & Linux builds of Quadrilateral Cowboy are now 64-bit! This update should alleviate technical issues some folks were having on these platforms.
To celebrate this update, we're discounting Quadrilateral Cowboy 50% for the next few days. Enjoy!
