V1.13 - Patch Notes
Helloooooo,
Quite a few changes in these notes, of bugs and other things I've changed throughout the week.
Changes: - New difficulty mode! Now there is an easy difficulty mode. Very simple changes but things to make your experience a lot more enjoyable when attempting to finish the game. We mostly added this because we understand some people are struggling to finish with the harder difficulty and realistically just want to get the achievements and say they have finished the game. - Glass added to basement window (insym your welcome) - Crouch bug in singleplayer fixed - Removed fire and reload in the controls scheme as they weren't used - Rope colliders on hooks are now bigger so you can place the rope a lot more smoother - Dying just after being revived fixed - Rope Bug causing animation to loop fixed - Revive syringe not being removing from hands when used fixed - Inventory UI now won't show up during jumpscare/cutscenes - Fixed basement floor texture - Being able to pickup rope after it has been broken fixed - Voice chat now has a open mic/always on option inside the settings - End cutscene being able to see players fixed - Fixed tesla trap bug which would cause her to agro during the trap.
And thats all folks :)

V1.09 - Patch Notes
Hi, me again.
Throughout the 32 hours of the game being out there have been plenty of bugs and problems that players and some twitch streamers have found. At the moment the importance is towards game breaking bugs and some quality of life problems.
Changes: - Animator changes and new functions to fix animation bugs and loops - Crouch bug after dying/being revived fixed - Far Rope Trap removed - Second rope trap breaking ropes instantly fixed - Basement floor changed to stop items from falling through it - Ghost being able to run through the rope fixed - Rope traps tinkered to stop her from running straight through it and not tripping - Players crashing or leaving bodies not disappearing fixed
We are aware of some other bugs including brightness not working, revive bug and more and will keep an eye out for more bugs.
Thank you :)
V1.07 - Patch Notes
Hello again!
Here are a few bugs and changes for this patch: - Changed low settings to help increase a bit of FPS (Nothing major) - Settings default to low (This will reset your graphic and game settings which you will have to change) - Controls 'Look' keybind removed from controls tab as it had no use (This will reset your controls settings) - Animator changes to help cause animation freeze on traps - Removed intractability on radio floor 1
For people who are still having fps drops and stutters with new low settings changed, we are still looking into FPS problems and will hopefully be able to bring a patch throughout the week which will help some pc's.
V1.05 - Patch Notes
Hi everyone! Thank you for buying and playing our indie horror game Agonize.
Here are some small changes and fixes from some bugs that we have seen within the community: - Revive bug (Not allowing revive) - Starting loading screen Loop (Not allowing people to leave the loading screen) - Ghost collider bug (Players not being able to walk through ghost players leading to a invisible wall)
Quick note that the game is very graphic intense and is known to have low fps and causing crashes if not enough vram. For now, make sure to lower your settings before entering the game to prevent any crashes if happening and improving your fps, as well as disabled rain particles. This will be looked into for the future to help improve fps for lower spec computers and will let you know in a future update.
Again, thank you all for supporting us and we look forward to creating a community for Agonize.
