[h2]July 20th V0.955[/h2]
[h3]Hello fellow players, ACT 4 is progressing well, meanwhile here is a load of new additions to the game![/h3]

[h3]Sunny District (Pine Lake North)[/h3]
A new district exists now in the northern part of Pine Lake. A tourist spot with a beach & hotel, Pine Radio, and other points of interest.
Images by LeeSpork

[h3]Flyer Glasses[/h3]

These glasses will aid you in flight with additional aviation data.
You can also buy cosmetic glasses in the 6/12 store.

The nose glasses disguise you from your past selves!

[h3]Plane Mode[/h3]
The wings are now moved to a separate flight mode system, which can be activated by pressing 'G'.
It only works correctly if you are already in air and allows you to glide across the clouds.

Use a runway to land your car smoothly.

[h3]New Landing Stage Mechanics[/h3]

You are now able to navigate your car slightly in hover mode and trigger the rcs to dampen your vertical movement.

[h3]Greg's Hot Dogs & Ice Cream[/h3]
Around Pine Island you may encounter Greg the hot dog dealer, or one of the ice cream sellers. Every day they spawn somewhere else on the island.

[h3]Remote Control Hover!
[/h3]
You can now control your hover car via remote!
[h3]
Retributionist Bandits![/h3]
In the old west you will find some new special bounties in Westwoods office.
These guys are wanted during the wild west era all over the Acoria Island Chain, they are very good in acting from the shadows, so you won't be able to find them. That is because they ignore unimportant do-gooders. That was the fact with you until you helped Westwood.

[h3]Radio Isla do Porto[/h3]
A new radio station has been added, which has its location outside the map to the south. Now you can listen to nice beach music!

[h3]Powerlines & Skylane revamp[/h3]

The skylane now runs around the island, covering the region of the sunny district, byroad, fisher bay
and cape dun!

You may also notice the new power line going around the island. The dam gives the island electricity!

[h3]ACT 4 Progress[/h3]

I am finally finished with the first altercation part with Mîm. Now comes the long last part of the act where you have to defeat him. There is another conclusion quest which I have planned after act 4, depending on your opinion I can release it with act 4 or spend more time with act 4 itself and release that conclusion quest later.

[h3]Make sure to check out all features listed below in the changelog!
Enjoy the update and God bless![/h3]

[h2]Hello dear players![/h2]

[h3]I have been spending these past weeks working on act 4 as well as some new additions for public release! More on ACT 4 below![/h3]

[h2]Grappling Hooks[/h2]

Press fire onto any object above you and hold the fire button to reel yourself in!
Press again to unlink the cable!

The car flipper has been replaced by the new gravity hook which pulls items towards you instead of being pulled in, meaning it has the opposite effect of the grappling hook!



[h2]Alaska Safe House
[/h2]
It's pretty cold here, use the new heater objects to keep yourself warm! Be weary, you are not the only living being that made its dwelling here!

[h2]Linux Port[/h2]

After some hiccups with getting it to work with STEAM I finally managed a proper Linux Port for No Time!
No more Proton, which means increased performance!

It comes with some increased performance as the Proton Layer has a poorer framerate than a straight port for Linux, which was my original reason to making a proper port.

Some video clips in game may still not work properly but that will be hopefully ironed out in the future!
This may or may not be also the first step towards any possible Mac build, thought these would be a bit harder to tackle, considering all the shader issues I had in the past when attempting a Mac Port.

[h2]Some smaller Additions![/h2]
[h3]
Torches![/h3]
Can be commonly bought in older and ancient stores prior to 1900.

[h3]
Space Weather[/h3]
Fog is back again for some planets, as well as cloud patterns and occasional thunder.

[h3]3rd Person zoom scroll!
[/h3]
Use your mouse wheel in third person to get a bigger view over your surroundings!

[h3]536 AD[/h3]
It was a year of darkness, a volcanic winter which was caused by at least three simultaneous eruptions of uncertain origin. (Credit to Hugestrike for the suggestion)

[h3]Revamped Full POWA flight![/h3]
Your flight in Full POWA mode has now been essentially changed to work similar to the jetpack flight.

[h2]ACT 4[/h2]
[h2]
I've spent the past weeks creating most possible set pieces that I need for the script!
It may still take some time to complete ACT 4 itself, it will be worth it though once it is done![/h2]

[h2]
The next few days will be me working more on ACT 4's story so I that I can have some first private tests on the side of some select players. Some work for the next public update has been already done in advance, so that I can focus more time on ACT 4's development.[/h2]

[h2]Thank you for your support![/h2]
[h2]God bless![/h2]

[h2]Hello fellow players!
[/h2]

[h3]It's been a while, I am back from my little hiatus which was back at the real world Fort Dun counterpart![/h3]



[h3]This time catching fish at the inner moat was in order, repopulating some of the outer moats around the fort with carp!
So with that experience in mind I thought it was time to finally make the fishing rod a real object.[/h3]

[h2]The Fishing Rod[/h2]


[h3]Fishing rods work now![/h3]


[h3]There are several types of fish now for salt and fresh water alike in different sizes![/h3]
[h3]They can be sold for a specific prizes based on fish type and size![/h3]


[h3]You can see fish above water based on the ripples they produce, but don't come in running or get to close or they will swim away![/h3]


[h3]A bit of patience, and voilà![/h3]


[h3]Patience is key! Sometimes all you get is an old branch or empty 2Can Soda![/h3]

[h2]Exo Suit and Leviboard Extensions
[/h2]


[h3]You can now customize your Exo Suit and Leviboard to your liking including custom coloring![/h3]


[h3]You can add the jet extension to both items! (This removes the jetboard effectively as a craftible item)[/h3]


[h3]You can pack on some heavy armor plating onto your Exo Suit for extra Beefiness/ Strength during melee combat![/h3]


[h3]Want to be a personal Shield Generator, pretty easy![/h3]

[h3]
With those new features comes also energy consumption. The previously introduced capacitors will control how far you can fly or how strong your shield will be! Top tier capacitors like those from mim will allow you to fly around in your jet pack indefinitely[/h3]


[h3]If your power is null, your suit will become sluggish and you won't be able to move at full speed![/h3]


[h3]You can toggle your hat/ helmet for every costume by pressing 'O'[/h3]


[h3]You can toggle the exo suit lights by pressing 'L'[/h3]

[h2]ACT 4 News[/h2]

[h3]Before my hiatus I have reached MÎM's base Du Utu, with a first confrontation of the evil doer.[/h3]
(Hover over black spoiler for image)



[h3]There is still much to do, given that I want it to be a proper ending with epilogue where all kinds of stories get resolved, if I were to work every day straight without pause it would take me about a month.[/h3]

[h3]Not counting the load of testing and potential voice work for new Narrator lines.[/h3]

[h3]I thank you for your support over this crucial time, it keeps me going as I see that you eagerly await this new and final entry to the main story line.[/h3]

[h3]Enjoy the update![/h3]
[h3]
God bless

[h2]Hello fellow players.
[/h2]
[h3]I had players reporting an increase in performance drop for some over time as they played on one save file, which turned out to be due to redundant copies of items caused by your past self taking an item back to its inventory.[/h3]

[h3]It should be fixed now and the redundant items will be removed out of your save file.
If you encountered this issue, save and load your save a couple times so it can cycle through your inventory and remove the fake copies.

This will work by the game checking if the item is in its box position, and later checking if it is not attached to any box in game.[/h3]

[h3]Below are more patches that were made throughout the weeks after the update.[/h3]
[h3]
