Girl Genius: Adventures In Castle Heterodyne News

Minor update

[p]We have changed how the sidebar in the main menu behaves. Here's how it used to work:[/p]
  • [p]The sidebar would be maximized / open from the beginning.[/p]
  • [p]It would never open or close on its own.[/p]
  • [p]It would save, with a "now saving" indicator, whether or not it had been maximized by the player, and stay that way.[/p]
  • [p]There would be no indication that new items had been added, if minimized by the player.[/p]
[p]Here's the new behaviour:[/p]
  • [p]The sidebar will be closed when you open the game, with one exception.[/p]
  • [p]It will be maximized / open when you return to the main menu after playing.[/p]
  • [p]It will be maximized / open the second time you start the game.[/p]
  • [p]After launching the game, if the sidebar is closed (this in not the exact second game launch), and there are new items to see, there will be an indication on the up arrow (maximize / open button).[/p]
  • [p]We no longer save the minimize / maximize state of the sidebar.[/p]

Mac version has been temporarily rolled back to 1.0.8

Because of some game-breaking technical issues with version 1.0.9, we had to roll back to version 1.0.8 on macOS.
We are working on a proper version of 1.0.9 for the mac.

Minor bug fixes and sidebar update

  • Updated the sidebar to show platform icons for game links
  • Added graphics and default mapping of the DualSense controller on Windows machines.
  • Fixed all-white skybox visible when flying into the abyss in one of the levels with Dingbot

Patch Notes: Version 1.0.8

[h2]Patch Notes: Version 1.0.8[/h2]

This patch addresses some issues regarding saving of data, that could lead to a softlocked gamestate if the player hard exits the game inbetween certain stages of gamestate and saving.

  • The arena console will no longer save twice after the first engagement, to avoid broken save states.
  • Updated logic on certain gameobjects in many scenes, so that they don't save too early and create a temporary broken save.
  • The banner with links now show up-to-date content from Rain.
