Some players have been experiencing a problem with specific controllers when changing the game controls. We appreciate the patience and all the details on the reports that are helping us track this down.
This update should avoid any player to be locked on the start screen.
Important:
- If you're locked on the start screen, try disconnecting your controller and progressing with mouse and keyboard.
- Make sure you're playing the 1.1.11 version.

BUG:
Some types of controllers are totally unresponsive after trying to remap the buttons

We worked on a couple more bugs reported by players.
BUGS:
- Levers of a room in Aberrations Chambers were not clearly visible
- Some controllers are totally unresponsive after trying to remap THE BUTTONS

[ 2020-04-27 19:10:00 CET ] [ Original post ]
These bugs are now fixed on the 1.1.08 version. Most of them were reported by players! Thanks a lot for the help!
Bugs:
- Eva projectiles don't move to the bottom of the room when you have the Rabbit's Herb
- Double chest spawning on top of the player makes him/her stuck
- Fireballs shot by Defiant Flames are too slow
- 2 Driders transforming each other at the same time softlock the room
- Boomerang stuck on Magnetic

We're happy to announce we're launching a new DLC called FORGOTTEN CRYPTS!!
Your game should automatically update.
How much does it cost?
For players who gave us their support before the price rise: ZERO! After the DLC launch, the game base price will have a rise to reflect the price of the new content.
arroww A BRAND NEW CHARACTER
She attacks with a boomerang! The boomerang also marks enemies as target for her loyal dog!! Galiana, the Naturalist, dedicates her life to study plants and animals and how these can help humans survive.
arroww NEW SCENARIO & NEW ENEMIES
New challenging floors to explore and put your strategy to the proof.
arroww NEW UNLOCKABLE: SKILLS
A new NPC has joined us in the encampment. He has some valuable knowledge to share about new combat techniques.
arroww NEW ITEMS
We had 31 in total, and we're adding 21 new ones! These are some of our favorites. We hope this is going to add a lot of variety to the runs. And one more thing...
arroww LOCAL CO-OP MODE
On a Sonic & Tails fashion, now you can explore the dungeons with a friend! The Player 2 gets to control the dog while Player 1 controls any of the 4 characters. This is not meant to be a hard challenge, but rather a very joyful two-players experience.
ABOUT SWITCH
Qubic Games is the publisher responsible for the porting of Mana Spark on Switch and they're working to port the DLC. They also helped the development with part of the funding, so, it's in their best interest to port the new DLC as fast as possible. We still don't have a launch date for Switch, but it'll not take long now. That's it. We worked hard on this and we really hope you like it! Cheers, -Ed

Some days ago we were approached by Lee, asking if we were interested on the Korean Translation he had made. And of course we were!
We're happy to add a new language translated by the community.
Thanks a lot! .
Remember: This was a work by the community. Be respectful, and if you find any mistakes, let us know so we can fix it.
Welcome Korean players!! We hope you like the game!

Quality of Life Update v1.0.21
Since the launch in September we've been updating the game, fixing bugs, removing and adding things players have pointed out to us. Today what we have is a slightly bigger update that we think will make playing our game a better experience: New Map Movement System Open the map / choose any room already visited / there you are!
Faster movement when out of combat More mobility! Can be disabled on Options Menu. New Poison System Stepping on poison won't get you poisoned immediately. It's only fair, right? Convenient Loot Grab Gold and runes are automatically collected after you clear a room. Why not? Reducing Loading Times The game now loads faster between floors. A Bunch of Bug Fixing Some were simple, some were more severe, but what matters is that they've been fixed. Supported Languages We now have:
- English
- Portuguese - Brazil
- Russian
- French
- Spanish - Spain
- Spanish - Latin America
A Word About New Content
We're not blind. We've seen your feedback on the forums and on reviews requesting new content. New enemies, new items, new areas. It breaks our hearts to read this from players that loved the game, but think the game is not on its full potential because of the lack of content. And I agree with that. We've been making some evaluations and we were even talking with a publisher that had some interest on investing on a paid DLC. The truth is, the sales of the game were not terrible, but it didn't let room for a significant update. If we work on this and it doesn't bring enough results it could put us out of business. With all that being said, I'd like to know from you:
- What kind of new content would you like to see?
- Would you be cool with paying (between 2$ and 5$) for the DLC?

Were putting the final touches of the new boss.
Id love to hear your opinions about the visuals of it:
We tried to design a really different boss and it was a lot of trouble to make it work properly. Im looking forward to see some of you becoming dragon food!

There was a backtracking problem on Mana Spark.
This happened when you had explored an area on the game to find a lever, and then to reach the exit you had to go all the way back to where you were before, in a long boring walk.
Other games that also have this problem usually solve it by allowing the player to teleport somehow, like on Enter the Gungeon or Dead Cells.
But it seemed to be a cheap trick to me.
I didn’t want to introduce random teleports on Mana Spark.
So this is the solution I came with:
A new Mini Map.
Yeah, that’s the solution. Before our mini map looked like this:
The rooms of the floor were only revealed once you’d visited them. Everything was hidden. Why? I didn’t had an answer. Because everybody does it like that? The player had no idea where the rooms were, so he couldn’t plan a good route. That’s what was causing backtracking at first! So here’s how the new mini map look like:
The floor layout is completely at hand right when you get to it. You see where the exit is, and can decide where you want to explore first. That way you can make a smarter exploration. Also now there’re icons that show if there’s still something left in the room. Like a lever or meat. This was a feature requested by some people from the community.
That’s it for now. Again, if you liked, leave a comment so I know it’s worth to do this kind of more elaborated post. Let’s build this together! -Ed BEHEMUTT
