'Trenches' Game Update V.1.2.4 - 28/10/21
Hello everybody! I hope you are all doing great.
First of all; Happy Halloween! I hope you get as much candy as possible! ːsteamhappyː
Game Patch: V1.2.4 is now live!
As always - I would like to thank you all for your support, suggestions and feedback.
This is a minor update unfortunately, I was very sick these past few weeks so I could not work much on the game. I am back again on my feet slowly, so I decided to work on something minor to keep up the pace.
Once again I was working mostly on the optimization and removing some unused files. I also added some new signs, few more decals and added a bit more details such as a simple footprints system which can be seen in the GIF below, and some others.
"Simple Footprints system have been made. If the player is stepping on the mud, and move on the wood then he will make a muddy footprint on it. This will mark the location where the player have been which can give you some time to know which way you came from in the Trenches (if you are lost), however within time - the rain will fade away the muddy foot prints."

This was something simple but was always on my mind - which will be improved upon hopefully.
Will you be playing this Halloween with the lights out? Let me know! I love to hear you out.
Also I wish to remind everyone that there is always the option to try the game out with less (at least) jumpscares if wish with the 'No Jumpscare Mode', so make use for that too if you are not a fan of jumpscares! ːsteamhappyː
I wish to once again take the time to thank you all for the support. Feel more then free to submit any feedback, criticism or suggestions for the game. If you like, you can also share it as this will also help out a ton to get into more eyes ːsteammockingː.. I LOVE hearing all feedback as this helps me improve. Thanks again, good day all and stay safe!

- Once again I updated the outline for the clue to be more visible. This means, each time the player uses the Trench Whistle to find the clue then it will highlight from a much more distance, as this was suggested too.
