Greetings! It's time for another bi-weekly Sipho update! We are experimenting with a major scoped improvement which is allowing to visit different breed zones in other than current order. Replaying the game should be much more enjoyable as you could start the game in Cra'than zones and finish the game just after fighting against beefier Seanus. In addition, if we give you ability to choose which zones to visit first, this would enable more strategic choices whether or not you would like to fight against weaker Buginis now or in later stages. We will keep you updated on our outcome of this experiment in our further updates! While these experiments are happening in a separate branch some changes have slipped through the cracks to reach you:
Version 0.5.5
- Add several cheap Cra'Than built-in layouts
- Add an unused rising bubbles effect
- Some improvements to the perspective shader
- Add a shader that's capable of doing perspective, sort of
- Update Utilitarian achievement to only start checking after first level
- Clamp minimum camera size to 0.1 so it doesn't crash everything
- Limit pusher effect sound count to 3
- Add Zooid Top sorting layer and fix Muck sprites being badly ordered
- Prevent head selection from attempting to load save with empty layout
- Do not lock cursor to hovered object when using aquarium eraser with relative input - fixes locking controller simulated pointer in place
- Hide all aquarium sub-menus when closing Aquarium - fixes possibility to enter bad UI state when opening Growth mode from Aquarium

- Sipho Linux [211.44 M]
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.
