Snail Simulator News

[p]I wanted to get this out before the Snail Party changes on Snaturday. Controller + Steam Deck users: please let me know if you have any issues![/p][p][/p][p]Quality of Life[/p][p]- Menu is bigger and scales more with bigger screens/window[/p][p]New Shtuff[/p][p]- Can now push Ctrl + Home to quickly teleport to spawn[/p][p]Controller (including Steam Deck) Support[/p][p]- R1 + Dpad down -> Ball Mode[/p][p]- Quick Appearance Changes - Hold down R1 and push dpad...[/p][p] - Up -> Randomize color[/p][p] - Left -> Cycle head hat (same as ctrl + u)[/p][p] - Right -> Cycle shell hat (same as ctrl + y)[/p][p]- Teleport Commands - Hold down L1 + R1 and push dpad...[/p][p] - Up -> Teleport to hat! (same as ctrl + t)[/p][p] - Down -> Teleport to spawn! (same as ctrl + home)[/p][p] - Left -> Save Sneleport Position! (same as F5)[/p][p] - Right -> Load Sneleport Position! (same as F8)[/p][p][/p][p]In the future I'll be making it so these controls show up in the menu and/or in an onscreen prompt.[/p]

[p]Bug Fixes[/p][p]- Fixed an issue where your "hello" couldn't be heard when wearing certain hats[/p][p]- Camera no longer moves or zooms while in menus[/p][p]- Fixed some weirdnesses with ball mode and dying[/p][p]Other Shtuff[/p][p]- Reduced Ball Mode gravity to match regular gravity. This means that rolling down hills will be slower, but you will also fly thru the air for longer (more "floaty"), which means The Ramp will still launch you just as far :)[/p]

[p]Rather than tell you why you should vote for Snail Sim for the Labor of Love award, I'm just going to post some random pictures.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]

[p]## New Hats & Achievements[/p][p]- Backpack (thank you for the 3D model, KawaiiFira!)[/p][p]- Shellmet - FINALLY our skaters will be safe (and have a waypoint for the skatepark!)[/p][p]- The Tire.[/p][p]- More time-based achievements[/p][p]- Two new achievement-achievements[/p][p]- Soccer ball (but it's not wearable yet, oops!)[/p][p]## Other New Shtuff[/p][p]- YOU CAN SEARCH HATS NOW![/p][p]- New super secret very fun feature :)[/p][p]- Hardcore Mode: Ctrl + H = no speed boosts[/p][p]## Fixes[/p][p]- Controllers (including Steam Decks) using the Steam Input system should have much, much better default movement and camera controls. If you aren't using the Steam Input system, you will likely want to enable it. NOTE: There's still a lot I want to do here, like adding controller bindings for the various different Modes and making the menu navigable with a controller.[/p][p]- F5 sneleport location now syncs with Steam cloud[/p][p]- Fixed Kazoo teleport[/p][p][/p]

[p]Heck it's been a good week.[/p][p][/p][p]We just hit 1,000 reviews on Steam with a 98% positive review rate!! Thank you all so much I've been feeling overwhelmed and grateful for the Snommunity and the growth this last week [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Having a high ratio of Steam reviews is tremendously helpful, it helps the game get on lists like Under $5 & Multiplayer. We're #2 on that list when sorted by User Reviews (link below)! So thanks again everysnail.[/p][p][/p][p]https://store.steampowered.com/search?sort_by=Reviews_DESC&maxprice=5&tags=3859&supportedlang=english&ndl=1[/p][p][/p][p]Lastly: I've got some new changes coming up for November's Snail Party I'm SUPER excited about... I have been giggling to myself while developing them. Super excited to show them off [/p][p][/p][p]🐌SNAIL💞🐌STRONG💞🐌TOGETHER💞[/p]
