What changed
- UI and audio
Released January 7th Major Changes: - New short introduction clip featuring Peter and the Player - Adjusted battle tutorial dialogue for better pacing - Item descriptions now indicate if they are Equippable -Changed "Charm" Equip slot name to "Amulet" to prevent confusion with lesser items -New Clint note describing each Status effect Minor changes: -Fixed Whiskers becoming "Normal" colored post-battle instead of Impaired -Fixed bug where players without Clint would recieve him near the end of the patch ( UPDATE: Now he will vanish if the players already had him before the fight. This will be fixed ASAP in a small patch. Thank you Discord Testers! ) -Other minor bugfixes and adjustments -Starting room now has details on controls on the floor -New pickup sound effects, and door opening/closing sound effects. I will be phasing out as many RTP placeholder sounds as possible in the coming months. Other News: Starting work on a possible experimental "Class" system and the ability to switch between recruitable characters. (You will be able to repair Lori, for example, and recruit her. You will also be able to swap Skid out for Whiskers at HQ or vice versa at any time.) EX: Tinkers will be strong against Softies Softies will be strong against Plastics Plastics will be strong against Amalgams Amalgams will be strong against Tinkers Souls (Human class) will be neutral against all others Many new enemy types will be added to reflect each of these Classes, with the color of their Essences dictating their Class. Expect Testing Branch patches reflecting these systems implemented in the coming months, along with regular updates. _____ Current saves should be retained per-computer. HOWEVER, (in the rare case that it is not.... Safe to carry over older version save file? -Go ahead. (Though you will be missing some bits) How do I save my current save file to use it in an upcoming update? -Go to the TinkerQuarry Steam folder and locate each file that says "save". Copy these to a separate folder and carry them back over to the new version once it updates. Until Steam Cloud is implemented, all saves will be wiped from the Steam Folder, so it is recommended to save them elsewhere if the next version is compatible. The details in this post may be updated and are subject to change. Thank you for all your help, and don't stop giving feedback if you find an issue!
