Cats & Dice News

A short one today.

[h3]BUG FIXES[/h3]

- This patch fixes issues with cats that limit dice placement (such as The Professor and Giant). There were some issues when a passives buffing cat like the Shieldmaiden interacts with them but this should now be fixed.

[h3]Patch Notes:[/h3]

- Increase of $1 in starting gold for Hard and Brutal mode. Their text description indicates that you will start with $5 in Hard mode and $4 in Brutal mode but in actual fact you will be starting with $4 and $3 respectively. This change has been made to reflect what the text actually says.

- In the pause menu, a new "Disable Screenshake" button has been added so you can turn off screenshakes if you want to.


BUG FIXES

- Certain screen resolutions will no longer cut off the edge of your screen when you enter fullscreen. Do note that if your resolution is significantly different from 16:9, entering fullscreen will mean you'll be getting non-pixel perfect sprites.

- Fixed visual bug for Bonus removal tag sprite not aligning with its actual position.

- Fixed misaligned Boon and Bane display bars (from clicking the Boon & Bane button).

These visual bugs only happen on non 16:9 resolutions. Do let me know if you come across any more bugs.

[h3]STEAM ACHIEVEMENTS[/h3]

- Due to an inability to trigger Steam achievements in v0.0.1, achievements tied to cats and items unlocks will be forever unobtainable if you've already unlocked them in v0.0.1. This has now been fixed by running an achievement check whenever you start up the game.


TEXT FIX

- Added a missing "to" in the Auctioneer's text description.


BUG FIX

- There's an issue with continuing the same run across different computers if you've previously exited the game while you're in the SHOP. This issue has now been fixed. However, if you've ever encountered this error, your latest SHOP save-file "P0_Save_ShopData.sav" would have been corrupted by this bug.

The other save-files are fine. Either start a new run OR use the local files from the computer you were using before encountering this bug. Do not use Seam Cloud's save-files as the corrupted "P0_Save_ShopData.sav" would have been sent onto the Cloud. If your run cannot be recovered then I'm sorry but you'll have to start a new run. The Meta-data save-file is fine so all you will be losing is one run.

- Fixed sprites and text misalignment with non 16:9 resolution. Please do let me know if you still encounter any such issue.

- Fixed visual bug in the glossary. There shouldn't be any lingering images of cats and items now.

- Air Pump-FOUR was given the same ability as Air Pump-THREE, making both of them essentially the same item. This has now been fixed, Air Pump-FOUR correctly gives all dice faces +4 value instead of +3.


[h3]KNOWN ISSUES[/h3]
- Going into fullscreen in certain resolutions will result in the game window extending beyond the screen. I'm still trying to fix this so please give me more time.


That's all for this patch. Thank you for playing and please let me know if you encounter any bugs or issues! You can do so here in the Steam forum or in discord.

Cheers,

First off, a huge thank you to all who have bought and played Cats & Dice. Your support means the world to me.

Secondly, I apologize for a missing code that led to Steam Achievements not being recognized. This has now been fixed. HOWEVER, if you've unlocked any Cats or Items you will be locked out of getting any of their related achievements. Another update will be coming later to fix that, so there's no need to restart if you're keen on getting those achievements.

That's all for this patch. Happy playing!
