Hello everyone,
In this new update (version 1.1.16), I’ve concentrated mainly on improving the Pictopix Workshop. As you can see on the screenshot below, new sort options have been added to make it possible to sort the puzzles as you wish. If your friends play Pictopix you can now see their favorite puzzles or those which they have created.
In addition, if you follow other players on Steam you can now see their creations by clicking on “From followed authors”. In selecting “Friends’ Favorites” or “Friends’ Creations” you will also be able to sort the puzzles according to the date, the theme or the rating (for the moment this is not possible in other sort categories on the Steam API).
I’ve also added two buttons in the pop-up displaying the selected puzzle. These allow you to pass quickly from one puzzle to another without closing the pop-up window. Navigation is thus much easier. If you play using a controller or the keyboard you can use the LB and RB buttons to pass from one puzzle to another (Page Down and Page Up on the keyboard).
I know that some players complained about the length of the animation when a puzzle is solved. Following up a player’s suggestion (Thanks Sumire !) I’ve worked out a compromise solution. Now you just have to hold down the left button on the mouse to speed up the animation (a small image “Speed Up” will appear at the top of the screen). This also works with the space bar or the “A” button on the controller.
There are other modifications designed to improve playing comfort (see changelog). I hope you’ll appreciate them!
As I mentioned in other messages it is now easy to translate Pictopix into other languages. Should you wish to translate the game into your language, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me through the on-line contact form.
Once again, good gaming and see you soon! ːisveryhappyː
