fixedThis is a minor bugfixing release. The main change in this build is that we've removed a feature that makes Owlboy change to mouse and keyboard-mode if you press a keyboard key, and change to controller-mode if you press a button on your gamepad. The reason we are disabling this feature is that Steam has released the Steam Controller Configurator, and this would occasionally cause gamepads to be treated as if they were a mouse and keyboard, which would cause Owlboy to switch between gamepad mode and mouse and keyboard mode, and make the game unplayable without some additional complicated configuration. We hope that this patch will make the game perfectly playable for people who were getting this issue. Other issues fixed: - A rare crash that could happen if you gathered a lot of lava monkeys. - A crash that could be caused by missing Windows permissions, which was forcing some users to play in administrator mode.
