No Time News

Hello fellow players :D


The annual update is here!

Some major fixes upfront. The major problems of clipping items have been fixed.

The issue of Edward being stuck in the sewers for example has also been straightened out.
With the update come a few new funny issues like being able to push cars like toys. Enjoy while it lasts because it won't be long ^^

ACT III is now in its end stages and roughly 95-97% Done :D

Remember that afterwards will come the revamp period, where in I will not make a public update for 2 months.







This will also be the time when I will move the last public version to the so called LEGACY BRANCH.

That will be done because of the save system revamps. Anyone after the ACT III release will not be able to play any old saves. To be able to continue them still, players will be able to play it on this legacy branch.



With the update comes a new water shader :D





It includes nice caustic effects as well! Some of the water colors will be fixed in the next weeks to look more fitting.



Now as it has been suggested in the past, boxes can be named now :D



And I revamped the box menu as well so it is actually visible ^^...



There are several other additions or changes and fixes, I will leave them as always down below.

Have a great day/night and God bless you :)

Hello fellow players.

A new update has been released :D

First and foremost. I am working on the last and major quest for ACT III and afterwards will come the epilogue.

Following that will be the revamp for ACT I and II and the save system, which will take hopefully till end of June. Do not take my word for it as I have a few ideas for these acts which will likely need a lot of testing. None the less I want the wait to be worth while.



The NPCs have received a major face lift :D

Gone are the pixellated faces even for higher quality settings.

While potato has still a bit of a lower quality I hope the result shows on higher levels.




BUY NOW OFFICIAL THE CAPTAIN PEN ACTION FIGURINE!

PACKED WITH ITS 15 CLASSY AND ORIGINAL VOICE LINES LIKE:

"WEEEE!",

"GET TO THE CAR, RAAWLL!"

and of course: "I AM A PENCIL, PUT ME DOWN I HAVE RIGHTS!"



There has been a change to the item handling. Gone are the days of wall clipping items :D

For the most part, unless the engine skips a frame again. Then you may or may not lose your item for ever ^^'

Try out the new item throwing feature! By holding down your right mouse button and releasing it.



Some new visual effects for the flying car have been added. Thrusters and statically charged hover engines.



Below is the full changelog. Hope this will ease your wait for ACT III as I am putting most of my time into it.

Cheers and God bless you all :)
