Hey everyone! As we're entering the final stages of Early Access, we've made a lot of performance enhancements and changes to several shaders and just general rendering overhauls. We felt it was necessary as several of you have been experiencing lag on some levels and the whole experience wasn't really consistent. We're in the middle of the Soundtrack Update, and we already have over 1 hour of music for the game, but we're aiming for even more than that. That's why we're choosing to release this performance update already now, so you can play around with less lag and higher FPS - as well as better outlines.
New Features and Major Changes
- Overhauled the rendering system and shaders to increase performance
- Optimized level geometry (FPS more than doubled in several levels)
- New outlines that are faster and look better
- New music player that switches between calm, area, combat, and boss music smoothly depending on the context
- Removed terrain foliage in favor of prefab foliage, which is what Goldflipper Base and onward has been using
Fixes
- Fixed (most) missing materials found in several levels
- Fixed tree leaves textures that weren't compatible with the outlines effect
- Fixed terrain textures on all levels to ensure smooth transitions
- Fixed uneven/impassable terrain in important areas of levels
- Fixed floating trees and bushes

The Heists
Penguin Heist features a variety of heist locations that all have their unique flair. One heist will have you stealing boats full of fish, and another might have you stealing valuable works of art from the world famous Walking Fish Museum of Modern Art. However, it is the job of a penguin to figure out the way that they want to execute their heist. Loud or silent, lethal or non-lethal - there is no right answer... there is only the way you play!The Base
To support all your heists you are provided with a base that exists in the most remote parts of Antarctica. In your base you have the possibility to construct new buildings, purchase new weapons and items for your heists, and find the perfect looking outfit for your penguin.- Processor: TBA
