Full Release Notes

  • Increases difficulty of the last staff+circuit puzzle

  • Improves redundant sounding voice effects

  • Removes in game "view log" button (no longer necessary), and mitigates related crash

  • Tutorializes the fact that you can leave a level if you're stuck without losing progress

  • Better tutorializes undo/redo/reset if not used

  • Fixes annoying alternate solution for difficult crab puzzle

  • Adds zones above some large professor puzzles where camera zooms out to reveal the entire area

  • Fixed bug that affected the mouse cursor when the game is in the background on some setups

  • Improved usability of the secret area, especially on Steam Deck. Added a m*****p, increased spacing, and zoomed in slightly.

  • Made it clearer how to close the console

  • Hides the fastforward icon when the save icon is present

  • Improves audio mix, including turning down the select and elevator and Snow Crab voice sounds

  • Fixed gate skill icons vanishing near edge of screen

  • Improved visual cues in last puzzle in the game

  • Fixed alternate solution in end game puzzle

  • Fixed stars in the skybox looking repetitive when too far from origin

  • Fixed an end game puzzle that had an extra orb leading to a slightly less interesting than intended solution

  • Greatly increased difficulty of the last two crab + circuit puzzles in the end game

  • Fixed red herring where it looked like the crab could enter an area that was not relevant

  • Made navigable areas clearer in an end game puzzle

  • Discovered that there is *not* a bug where the interact doublet triggers--my keyboard is just broken (:

  • Improves fiddlyness on some of the ice puzzles

  • Stops showing speed icons over cut scenes they don't affect

  • Fixed a bug where under very specific setups, gates could press orbs through the floor

  • Fixed an area where scenery was slightly blocking a puzzle element

  • The UI showing the current song now stays around for a second after you start moving so you have time to read it

  • Removes unnecessary logs

  • Gives remaining untitled songs names

  • Fixed toggle UI button not hiding dialogue controls

  • Fixed alt solution to a puzzle in the last level

  • Improved calculation of per-level completion percents, fixed bug where they'd be slightly off on some ice levels

  • Adds UI explaining the various video options, and making clear what the recommended settings for most players are

  • Fixed bug where saves from older versions of the game would load into the wrong checkpoint at launch

Cheers, Mason
