OOOOOOOOOOOOOOPS

Achievements work again


I reverted to old Chromium and old Greenworks from the ancient summer of 2020. You can get achievements again. I hope they don't break anytime soon because I'm running low on achievements to get when I need to test this out.

You can no longer meet yourself twice, I hope


Thank you Khitosan for discovering the bug and also Darkshoxx for suggesting the change in case I failed to fix it. I don't know why this happens, but I changed up a number or two, maybe it helps. Maybe not. If it didn't, it is now cannon that you are the other version of you and can meet yourself again.

You can no longer give food to the antiquarian if you don't have 5 food


Not a big bug. Technically, you would just give him less food and have 0 food in the end. If you're worried if the key is still completely useless, don't worry, it still is.

Save&Quit to main menu rather than shut down the game


This mostly bothered streamers that didn't like to show their desktop by surprise. I hope people can find the quit button in the main menu, it's a bit small-ish and backwards. Eh, you'll manage.

Version 1.21

New version number!


Some of the more discerning players have noticed that I forgot to change the version number in the lower-left corner of the introductory poster. Worry no more, it is change now. Nobody will be left wondering if it's the newer or older version. All your problems are gone now. Your life is finally good and so is ours. And god bless us everyone.

Trader bug fixed


Trader from another universe had a weird bug where you could give one more fuel than you had and be left with -1 fuel. As this kind of abuse makes the game too easy to win, it is now fixed. We are still discussing an in-game explanation why you are no longer able to have negative amounts of fuel in that particular instance. You will be posted if we ever come up with anything.

Four pirates and the dog fixed


If you communicated with the pirates and shot them with the laser afterwards, a wrong scene would occur sometimes. Somehow I changed two variables instead of one, but that is also fixed now. I hope this increases your gameplay enjoyment even more.

Speedrun record now stands at 9 minutes and 40 seconds for any%


[previewyoutube=ehpMPrlwII4;leftthumb][/previewyoutube] As you can see, darkshoxx clicked and clicked until the game couldn't take it any longer and just let him win. If you think you can do better or at least good enough to be mentioned at speedrun dot com, head on over to this link and let the games begin: https://www.speedrun.com/general_horse

Big sale and update 1.2

I could write far and wide about the update, but I think this trailer explains everything better than real words ever could. [previewyoutube=uKuzfZE4Xwo;leftthumb][/previewyoutube]Yes, it's a new random encounter. While other encounters might be a bit banal and expected, this one is highly artistic and introspective. But you have to see it to believe it. The chance of it appearing is something like 1:30something/40something, depending on which encounters are unlocked, and that depends on many factors of your gameplay. This game is a finely tuned machine built to give you the tightest and highly balanced performance, with great care around your story's continuity, so the encounter chance can't really be explained that easily. Yes, we're on a huge surprise sale! Now is the perfect time for everyone to buy the game. It's great for movie parties, twitch streams with friends and, of course, playing alone in a cold embrace of a gaming bedroom. Take advantege of this amazing discount, now!

The Linux Update

If you're curious what happened and what was fixed... eh... The exported game turned all the media file references to lowercase, and a lot of videos had uppercase characters. It's not a problem in Windows, but Unix systems like to have more characters at their disposal and chaos was born. Every file with uppercase characters was just ignored. Just doing a shell command to rename everything to lowercase did not do anything because Steam also ignores uppercase, so it just told me they're all the same files and refused to rename any of them :( Guess what I did for the last five days (besides sleeping and hiking and drinking too much tea and lazying about and hating myself). Yes, I renamed hundreds of files, both in the code and the directory. I made them all lowercase and also added a character at the end of each offending file, so Steam would finally make the extreme effort of changing those file names to work. On the upside, I finally had a chance to go through our chaotic naming convention and make it even worse. Turns out, this problem is plaguing Steam since 2013. and some pretty big games also had chaos with their Linux distribution. Unlike them, we don't have badly paid slaves to do the hard work, we only have badly paid ourselves, but here it is, finally. I tested it out in most encounters, but who knows if I did EVERYTHING correctly. Both Windows and Linux users, please, if you see a black screen where a video should be, please let me know, it means I messed something up. My "QA team" still consists of whoever publishes their gameplay videos on youtube and twitch D: I would also like to thank Linux users who went to game discussion to report the problem, find a quick fix for more impatient users and help me out with this embarrassment <3

A few silly bugs

  • Buffed the amount of potential food on planet Broccoli 998, just a bit to push you further in the final act of the game.
  • Tiny alien Bruno (from your alien egg) is no longer invisible while on helm.
  • Meditation on Bipolaria would not cure your disease, if you had one. Heh, oops. All good now.
  • General Horse's member may or may not be slightly bigger in this update. Pay close attention and let us know if you see the difference.
