A great Randy & Manilla patch to start 2025!

As a reminder, the previous patch was very small due to development being on hold for Christmas. To kick off 2025, a much larger patch has been released, offering the following changes and additions:

For starters, a small counter with a number has been added to Manilla's runner levels, indicating how many jumps are left before landing again. This will make it easier to manage jumps while Manilla is in the air in order to complete the aforementioned levels.

In addition, some strange details that have been overlooked for a long time have also been fixed, such as a piece of cloud with invisible edges in level 4-2 of Wonder Race, visible in the game trailers.

Among many other changes:

• Time now freezes while pausing during super sprint

• Fixed parts where exiting to start menu from pause would result in black screen

• Revamped tag trigger system

• Changed third clue text in Blue Quantáramo's passwords level

• Minor correction to level 4-4 ranking

• Corrections to Sparky's dialogue trigger in Rol & Rogue

• Minor camera corrections

• Changes to the physics glitch in Manilla's shield boost

• Shorter stall time when climbing over Cracksom in his battle

• Slight framerate improvement in Abstractia level 5-4

• When Cracksom spins and damages Manilla, he steps back slightly to attack again

• Crackscorpio (Quantum City boss) can take double damage when his double shot is returned.

• Manilla will no longer lose level 5-3 just by touching the "water" of the sea (at least until she sinks to a certain depth)

• Rol & Rogue's supercrits will appear a bit more frequently

• Gameboss fights will no longer be improperly triggered by pressing C/Select without first reaching their combat areas

• Minor fix for Manilla's sprites in Rol & Rogue

• Player Randy/Manilla can clip through Randy/Manilla CPU

• Fixed muted sound of Randy dying in level 3-1

• Level 1-2 signs are now destructible

• Fixed a detail when leaving Quantum City, entering Rol & Rogue, and then exiting to the start menu to load the game: some Net-Cubes that entered ended up as Rol & Rogue

This is the Randy & Manilla patch with the most changes recorded to date. The idea behind this patch was to give the current Early Access the most polished version possible before we start the long road to the next major update (a preview of the characters making their debut was shown on the penultimate day of 2024). I hope that what this patch offers will be worth your time while you wait for the next big update.
