Hi Everyone! Ivan's here.
In this latest Hard Times patch I'm pushing some bugfix to the game (thanks to user plank'st for pointing them out).
-- The first bug was an horrid and blasphemous problem concerning the drag system, letting ghostly images remain on screen when someone initiated a drag action and then suddenly closing the original inventory. In that case ghostly images remained on screen until a restart of the game, scaring and terrorizing users worldwide.
-- Another bug was concerning the green ghost representing furniture images being placed, which was interacting with npc and people in general, pushing them around as it's collider was inadvertedly firing collisions. Now is, hopefully, fixed and won't be a problem any more.
-- On some machines the intro text was not being showed correctly, on the bootstrap screen. This was a very disappointing bug since i like that text very much, and i couldn't stay with my arms crosed staring at such a misfuncional software disaster. So i took actions to correct the problem and now everyone should be able to read it and make their considerations about it.
-- Lastly, this is not a bug (unbelievable uh?), but i would like to point you to the amazing Hard Times Official Soundtrack, composed and performed by my best friend "HELLO MY NAME IS" which is available for streaming and downloading on bandcamp:

Go listen to it now! It's an order!
This is it for this last patch, thanks to all the peolple who is playing the game and thanks to everyone who took some time to get in touch with me, asking questions or reporting bugs. Thanks, much love!

- Hard Times Linux [447.62 M]
Hard Times is an extreme urban survival game where you have to put yourself into the shoes of a homeless man, taking on all the challenges that daily survival places in the great metropolis of indifference.
You will have to look into junk, beg for money, escape corrupt policemen and citizens maniac about decorum. You will feel hunger and cold. You will suffer in the long rainy nights and be glad when you can get a decent meal.
You will have to learn to build your own tools by yourself, craft and recycle objects to gain resources. You will make artifacts of all kinds, including furniture, work benchs, kitchens, beds, cardboard boxes, storage containers for your little treasures and much more.
You will probably have to give up your innocence to survive. Small thefts and looting will become a gesture of self-preservation, beyond any moral judgment. You will know the thrill of introducing into an abandoned property to take possession of it.
You can choose whether to become a squatter and build your base in the city, live in a homeless camp or move your stuff daily with a cart to sleep every night in a different place.
You will be hunting for rats and fishing radioactive fish to cook them in the live fire of an old rusty bin. You will contract illnesses, use drugs and experience on your skin as cold and indifferent the great metropolis can be for those who live Hard Times.
### 10% of all revenues created by this game will be donated to "L'alternativa Onlus" a charity ngo organization, active in homeless people support programs in the Ostia Lido (Rome - Italy) territory. ###
