V19 - Housekeeping update

• Resolved the broken Full Steam Leaderboards button
• Resolved tutorial bug spinning out of control
• Resolved crash on exit on Mac
• Now fully working on Linux (sorry about that)
• Full Steamdeck support confirmed
• Updated store page and features where appropriate
• Changed share button to now copy message/score to clipboard so you can use it anywhere instead of opening up a direct link to Twitter
• Decreased install size
• Updated the Unity backend
• Implemented several translation suggestions
• Proper Cloud saving Cross-Platform Win/Mac/Lin
• Migrating save files (copying not deleting so old one is still there) from old versions to new save location to be consistent with all my games.
• Removed additional exit menu and videos.
• Added unified Update text and "More Games By" panel on main menu that will be in all my games going forward. If you click the panel it will open to the games page and then won't suggest that game again on this installation. Also allows me to push update text without a full game update in case of urgent issues.
• Probably other minor fixes I forgot (sorry)

Patch Notes:

My latest arcade score chaser is now available on Steam. Ding Dong XL is a one button game that requires to you push the button everytime you want your character to move from top to bottom, you must time your moves to avoid enemies and collect powerups while surviving as long as possible. If you liked my other one button games you will probably get a kick out of this. If you enjoy the game, please make sure to leave a brief Steam Review. Thank you all for the continued support, it greatly helps in my development of Super Bit Blaster XL Adam Nickerson Follow Nickervision Studios on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/862570/

Diamo XL is now available on Steam for PC, Mac, Linux. Survive the constant onslaught of obstacles by moving your character to all five zones within the Diamond. Collect points before the enemies smash them and keep moving to keep your multiplier high. Fill in the four triangles to complete the Diamond and get bonus points. This is an 'XL' version of my unreleased mobile game 'Diamo'. I have added/changed a variety of things to make it more suitable for the Steam platform. I have been learning to make games in my free time and love making small-yet-solid arcade games with simple mechanics. Please expect 'Diamo XL' to be a small, re-playable, arcade score-chaser game where the only basic goals are to constantly beat your previous score and unlock a handful of alternate player characters. Thanks to the unexpected success of my previous Steam games Bit Blaster XL and Orbt XL I have been able to spend a lot more time learning more about game development and intend to release more bite sized arcade games like this as I also start to develop bigger and better projects. I really appreciate all the feedback and support the community has given me. Thank you to everyone for the support of my small games, it has been life changing. Also PLEASE if you enjoyed Diamo XL make sure to leave a brief Steam review for it if you can, as I have found it to be one of the most important tools for getting others to notice my games.

orbt xl - V4

• Added several more silly skins to unlock.
• Added an option to the video menu that can toggle the spinning background stars for those that don’t like them.
• Modified Unity Splash Image to be correct.
• Finally decided on a new icon graphic to replace the temporary one I had to use.

orbt xl - V3

• Added a new planet “Plumbish”, which now also changes the look of the internal black hole. (also comes with an achievement, which I now know a lot of people don't like when you add achievements, so I will keep this in mind in the future)
• Improved in-game and store translations for Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Finnish, French, Japanese, Polish and Korean thanks to community help
• Spacebar can now be used in place of enter for navigating menus as well.
• Put more checks in place to ensure misclicks/button presses in menus don’t get accepted and cause undesirable effects.
• Added another check to ensure that buttons could not be resized accidentally by getting stuck in the on position.
• When starting a round, the spin will now begin at the rotation opposite to the last round played. (unless you just opened the game) This will hopefully help alleviate anyone's room spinning after playing too long :)
• Added the hidden ability to delete your best high score that is saved by pressing the “Delete” key and “Y” key at the same time when exiting the game and on the "Thanks" screen. (since with cloud save its a lot harder to clear your score if you for some reason need/want to). I will probably implement something better for this in the future.
• Added another check to hopefully curb some of the fake scores before they’re posted in the leaderboards.
• The blackhole enemy and change direction enemy now correctly activate the moment they hit the center blackhole, this should allow players better ability to anticipate and react to these enemies effects.

orbt xl - V2

• Resolved problem where sometimes when clicking the retry button, the whole game would play that round slightly shifted off center.

• Resolved (hopefully) the Resizing issues that occurred when some buttons were clicked in an unusual manner (which can be resolved with a restart of the game if it ever occurs again)
• Changed a number of in-game, store page, trailer, screenshot, and what felt like a billion other related graphics after a complaint that my graphics were too similar.
• New Achievement related to near misses :)
• Fixed some translation in game and all over store page, thanks to community contributors. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you can improve translations for any language :)

orbt xl is now available on Steam for PC, Mac, Linux. Stay in orbit while avoiding obstacles or being sucked into a black hole. Survive as long as you can while dodging and weaving between the various obstacles, the closer you orbit to the center; the faster you achieve points. The longer you last, the harder it gets. The simple one button controls either increases or decreases your orbit as you press it or don’t. This is an 'XL' version of my mobile game 'orbt'. I have added/changed a variety of things to make it more suitable for the Steam platform. I have been learning to make games in my free time and love making small-yet-solid arcade games with simple mechanics. Please expect 'orbt xl' to be a small, re-playable, arcade score-chaser game where the only basic goals are to constantly beat your previous score and unlock a variety of cosmetic skins. Thanks to the immense success of my first Steam game Bit Blaster XL I have been able to spend a lot more time lately learning more about game development and intend to release more bite sized arcade games like this as I also start to develop bigger and better projects. I really appreciate all the feedback and support the community has given me and I hope to see some of that same support for orbt xl and my future projects. Thank you to everyone for the support and I really hope that you have some fun with orbt xl. Please, if you do, make sure to leave a brief review on Steam and share with family and friends, it makes a HUGE difference in getting the game out there and having people give it a shot.

My new game orbt xl will be available April 21st 9AM (PST) for $0.99USD. Thanks to everyone that has supported my other arcade score chaser Bit Blaster XL, it has helped me rearrange some things in my life to spend more time making games like this. I hope that if you enjoyed BBXL you will have some fun with orbt xl too. My experience in the last year with BBXL has really helped me make orbt xl a much more solid package right out of the gate. Including a variety of features and improvements that you all encouraged me to add to Bit Blaster XL. While they are all small things like volume sliders, resolutions options, rebinding controls etc, they all make the end game experience a better value. As with BBXL, expect orbt xl to be a bite sized experience great for playing a round here and there while in a queue or binge playing just one more round for hours. Thanks so much for the support and look forward to much more from me this year as I have many more things to come now that I can devote more time to this. :) Adam Nickerson Nickervision Studios Follow Me On Twitter http://store.steampowered.com/app/615610/ http://store.steampowered.com/app/433950/
