Demo Patch 0.5.6 - Basic Creature Interactions!

New:

• Creatures now occasionally go and babble with each other!

• Also added a sitting and looking at themselves animations to their wandering around time

• Added a mouse controls bar to help people know what controls are available

• Updated the Settings Menu with new options:

  • Added Resolution dropdown option

  • Added Graphics Quality dropdown option

  • Added toggle for hiding mouse controls bar

  • Added toggle to run game in the background

• Changed the color of the selected creature panel popup, and changed the Edit button to be the Edit & Share button, to make it more clear that you can share creatures

• Color grid menu now highlights all the colors that are applied to a creature for easier color matching.

• Gather button now toggles to a Disperse button after it's clicked, and vice versa.

Fixed:

• Creatures now no longer continue to move while the player is in Edit mode. This should hopefully result in some performance gains when a lot of creatures are in the Lobby.

• Removed the animations for the face option tabs to make the game more responsive in the Face menu. May add a toggle to the graphics settings to apply this for the entire Edit Creature menu for optional performance gains based on player feedback.

• Improved on-screen keyboard. Should now be better at taking hardware keyboard inputs at any time without having to click the input field. Still having weirdness with using arrow keys and the mouse to move the caret, but these bugs are noted.

• Feature toggle containers now do not show arrows unless there are multiple pages of features.

Steam Page settings:

• Completed game rating survey, so demo should now be available for German users.

• Added Steam page localization for Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese.
