Letter Quest Remastered v1.0.4 Released

Letter Quest Remastered v1.0.4 should now be available.

Changes:


  • Added over 200 new words to the game's dictionary, and fixed/added definitions for another 100 words. This is a very time-consuming and manual process, and I'm looking into better ways to handle it.
  • Added a tooltip to the challenge text when playing challenge stars in a stage so that it is easier to see the current challenge restriction.
  • Added a yellow note label on the key bindings popup explaining that letter keys cannot be used for key bindings because they are reserved for typing words during battle.
  • Changed behaviour when a crash occurs in the game - now it shows an in-game error popup, and has two buttons, one button submits a bug report, and another exits the game. Please submit a bug report if you encounter a crash in the game and see this popup, thank you!
  • Added a custom error popup when the game cannot find Steam or Steam isn't running - in the general case, the game will cause Steam to start and then the game will start again, but for a very small number of players, Steam is running and they still have this issue. This popup explains that Steam should be restarted, and that a check for any Steam client updates should be attempted. It also mentions that if none of that works, to try adding an exception for the game to their antivirus, since there are a few antivirus programs that seem to block Steam connectivity in Unity games sometimes.
  • Fixed a visual bug on the score summary popup, where if there were too many entries, the text would be cut off.
  • Fixed a really rare crash related to how the in-game Steam functionality starts up (it only happened to 2 people).
  • Changed the text of a few tutorials to make them less confusing (hopefully!)
  • Added the game version to the bug report tool so that I can tell which game version the crash occurred in.
  • Added two more profile backgrounds (part of Steam trading card system), bringing the total to 5.
I'm still attempting to fix a couple of obscure crashes that a few users are seeing, and will release another update if/when I figure those out - they're affecting less than 0.1% of players, so it's tricky to figure them out with so few examples. Thank you to everyone that has explained what was happening, and what you were experiencing, your help is greatly appreciated! Have a great weekend everyone! - The Bacon Bandits

    About Bacon Bandit Games

    We're a two-man Canadian game dev team attempting to make great games. Letter Quest Remastered is a completely rewritten version of our first game, Letter Quest: Grimm's Journey.

    The original Letter Quest was written in Flash and limited the platforms that we could release it on, so we spent over 600 hours rewriting it in Unity and are now proud to fully support Windows, Mac, and Linux!
