Changes
Added 'HasFunction()' function on all objects.
Doors without a code can be unlocked by any key.
The SetPosition() function has been removed from the computers who had it, this will invalidate some ways to beat the game that were a bit too boring. These computer have gotten a new function though – GetThingsOfType(), have fun with it!
EraseMemory() function for computers with a memory unit.
The extractor now has a 'CopyToClipboard()' function.
Can't teleport into inventories.
Dialogue with the Bouncer in the park can't get stuck in infinite loop.
Invariant culture is set by app, should fix bug for some Linux users.
An error at Blå Knuten when talking to the bureaucrat in there has been removed.
A bug where Pixie wouldn't come out to talk to you has been fixed.
Pressing ESC when slurping should not make the game hang with a white screen.
Boolean logic should work correctly in all cases (oops!)
Things that are not fixed yet
Flashing graphics on Linux
Unreadable screens on some hardware, seems to be more of a driver issue though..?
The Secret Arcade
For people who want to explore the deeper parts of Sprak (the in-game programming language) and the possibility to create your own programs in Else Heart.Break() – please check out the Secret Arcade!
The Github wiki has documentation on the language itself and a growing collection of programs that people have written themselves, many of them part of the arcade machines inside the game.
The Facebook page has some general discussion about Sprak and the Arcade machine functionality.
Obviously you can also share code and ideas here on Steam, but if you want people who have bought the game elsewhere to see what you've done, consider adding it to the wiki also. Just log into Github and add a page.
We're looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
Soundtrack is released by Swedish Columbia
A big part of Else Heart.Break() is the soundtrack – found on radio stations, floppy disks and by other means throughout the game. Now you can get these 56 (!!!) sweet, sweet tunes by El Huervo, Sasac, Hello World, Shelby Cinca, Tor Bruce and Philip E Morris so you can enjoy them at any time.
