Hi everyone, We are releasing a hotfix build for growth issue that has been introduced in last patch. It appears that scaling physics time is required for stable fade-in to growth mode. It wouldn't manifest as destructive explosion but actually leave the physics world in a different state than portrayed in game when having entered growth mode. This would result in weird Sipho deformations when ungrowing parts and inconsistent placement of new parts. This is now fixed. We have reverted changes for this exact case while leaving kill-slowdowns deterministic. Best of both worlds it appears. Some additional changes have sneaked in that would have been introduced in later patches. Reacting to your feedback, we have partially tweaked Vagorian breed. Check out full changelist for details:

Version 0.4.2

Fix bug in The Matrix 2

Select Dialog button only when it's shown rather every frame

Optimize Matrix2x2 accessors, speeding up deformable

Still change fixedDeltaTime when pausing the game - deformable needs to fade-to target positions

Disable Wind package

Buff Peapod health to 6 and make it half as slowing as expected

Killed bombs explode at half range with half damage

Slow down Burstopod weapon animation so it is only visibly ready when actually ready and make it scale with skill speed

Use Particle System Force Fields to move ambient particles instead of Wind Zones

Disable many unused built-in packages - this time for real

About the game

Sipho is a game that combines eerie real life underwater creatures, insects, body parts with building, combat and exploration. Create your own creature by combining various parts, called zooids. Each zooid specializes in some sort of function– some zooids eat food, others are responsible for movement, attacking other creatures or providing structural support. Most zooids have active and passive abilities. All of the zooids combine into a single creature, Sipho, whose main goal is to climb to the top of the food chain, by using cunning weaponry and various skills.

Collect nutritious food, grow your own creature to become the best of them all. Beware though, there are powerful enemies out there to stop you.
