Hey all, Paris here!
Just a little update with a few small fixes in v1.44 of ERSATZ. And woo, it just hit 2000 keys activated!! In all honesty, it hasn't translated in a lot of money, but that doesn't take away from the achievement at all.
I have another announcement tomorrow too so stay tuned!
ERSATZ v1.44 Patch Notes
------------------------------------------------
JOURNEY MODE
-Fixed time penalty display at the end for real this time (this doesn't effect your recorded final time just what is presented to you)
-Grade no longer shows in pause or game over screens as it isn't relevant to this mode
SYNTH RUSH
-Time start is consistent between restarting from game over and restarting manually on Grovelin Chief fight.
LEVELS
-Level 02 'REGULATION' - Footstep and landing SFX would not be correctly set for a level under certain circumstances, this has now been fixed
MISC
-Fixed issue where pausing the game on the same frame you fall into a pit would cause a crash
