Repeated intro
Hello everyone! Thank you so much for playing Parcel Dash and providing lots of feedback. The support has been amazing! We’ve got a huge pre Next Fest update here!
What changed
- Maps
- Gameplay
- UI and audio
New Map!
We’ve got a spooky new Halloween themed map just in time for spooky season! Enjoy the fall colors, new routes and some new destructible objects to run over.
New Routes!
1 new route was added to The Ville and 2 were added to The Burbs
NPC Characters
Watch out! There’s now NPCs wandering the Burbs and Country levels… If you were to… Accidentally ;) Collide with an NPC there may be some ragdoll effects happening.
If you encounter performance issues in levels with NPCs you can disable them in the settings menu.
Parked Vehicles
We’ve been hard at work updating and adding new set dressing to the levels. This now includes some parked vehicles scattered around.
5 Second Warning
A 5 second countdown now starts when you’re 5 seconds away from not achieving the 3 star time. Suspense!
Vertical Inversion
Look down… I mean up! You can now invert vertical controls in the settings menu. Inversion can be selectively set for both player walking controls and van driving controls
Package Highlight Changes
Packages now glow their respective colors when hovering over them instead of the arbitrary green color it was previously. This is also the case when packages are in range of their destinations.
First Person Driving Camera
Switch to a first person hood view while driving. Camera switch control is currently defaulted to “V”.
UI Scaling
We’ve greatly improved UI scaling for those of you with wonky aspect ratios… You know who you are.
Par Time Tooltips
There’s now tooltips on the route select screen. When hovering on a route it displays the time threshold to unlock each star.
Minor Changes
The vans back doors now have a larger, more forgiving hitbox
Pressing escape now goes back in menus
Restart button is now also in the pause menu
Leaderboards now have the ability to go to different pages
Van third person camera collision detection improvements
Added fire hydrant icons to the map screen for better visibility
Added map name within route selection screen
Added a handbrake prompt
Added more mappable keys to the controls menu
Please continue to reach out with suggestions and feedback. You can join our Discord or create a post here on Steams community hub.
See you on the leaderboards!
