Hi.

This is the first 'important' update. Probably, the Spanish translation sounds like 'the big feature', but the improvements in loading times, bug fixes and the overall better optimization make the demo much more stable now.

The Spanish translation

It's not just a text translation. The demo has been 'rewritten' in Spanish and many extra efforts have been made to make it as good as possible. Including:

  • Manually adding the 'Ñ' and the rest of the latin characters to the game's font. ('á','ü','¿','¡','º', etc…)

  • Making again all the visuals and animations of the UI in Spanish (which uses pictures and not text, so… really fun!)

  • Making a system that dynamically replaces English graphics with Spanish ones! (I'm kind of proud about this one… it's really not that hard, but adds a lot to a translation!)

(*Example of English graphics being also translated. I'll try to keep this consistent with future translations!)

Optimization and screen rations

Sadly, the demo launched with no much time for testing, so it was not possible to properly optimize it or make it compatible with every screen ratio… until today!

Some of the improvements included in this update:

  • Save file loading times have been reduced from 10 seconds to 2.

  • The game no longer needs to load the first time is launched.

  • No loading times between different sets.

  • Sound no longer "bangs" after loading a save file.

  • Apart from 4:3, EVERY screen ratio should be now compatible. (And I'm working on the one left…)

Bug fixes

Many bugs have been fixed, but the most important ones are:

  • Music no longer fails if loading on the second floor of the cinema. Car animations are now always synchronized with the police agent's. During the battle, it was possible to break the game doing "something". It's impossible now. You can no longer take the empty glass with you if cheating (that could also break the game, actually!).

Please, let me know if I broke something else. Or if I should fire the translator…
