Thank you!
Hello, Infiland here, the main dev.
Thank you so much for playing The Colorful Creature for the past... 5 years at this point.
5 Years! Wow, that's a pretty long time.
I was working on this game by myself for the most part, it wasn't a full-time commitment, but it's a project I am very proud of, because it is my very commercial/serious project I worked on.
On my behalf, I wanna thank everyone who has contributed to the game, some of the things like art in credits or workshop support would be impossible without you.
Now here's some things I do wanna say:
I wanted this game to be more, but I realized overtime that what I have added is pretty much complete. I added everything that I wanted, yet I still keep adding before the so called "full release". Because all I was really doing over the past couple of months was just change a couple of levels, add some quality of life changes to the level editor, but everything is already in the game, and it's just kinda rework on the existing systems while I'm not really adding anything "new" to the table.
Don't get me wrong, I did add new stuff to the game, for example, the restart challenge button is a good feature for speedrunners, but it can be seen as features that are like "Post-Game Release". Everytime I do something to the game, it just feels... finished to me, but I have no idea what others think of the updates.
So I have decided to stop endless release date pushing.
On 28th August of 2023, the game will be released as a full game.
However there's a couple things to mention:
- Local Files has been renamed to TheColorfulCreature instead of The_Colorful_Creature, this WILL reset your progress! However if you want to keep your original progress, when the 1.0 update drops, make sure to just drag the The_Colorful_Creature files over to the new folder. For android users, progress is reset regardless. The reason why I did this is because when I compile to Native Linux, the compiling fails with the old name.
- I'm fixing Local Multiplayer a bit to be more playable for the final release, every time I add something new to the player the multiplayer version just crashes. So I'll make sure IT NEVER DOES AGAIN!
- From this point I'm adding new levels, quality of life improvements, it is indeed unfortunate that I haven't added anything big inside the game but if there's no new players trying out new things so why bother. I feel like adding additional things will just add in the repetitive factor of the game.
- Going to REALLY nerf World 7, for 2 years nobody has beaten it other than me and dha, so I'll do that.
- The fate of events, custom skins and items is unknown
- Will fix that stupid bug where dying on android will play an ad every time
- I'd like people to help me translate the game in as many languages as possible, there isn't the time when it has to be done, but if you wanna help me with that go over to https://discord.gg/mKeVMtZgfa
- Please let me know what you want added/fixed before the full release
