UPDATE

IMPORTANT: RESTART CURRENT CHAPTER

If you were playing before this update and do not wish to start a new game / reset your save, please restart current Chapter from the beginning to avoid bugs, prevent invalid softlocks, and ensure the new bugfixes are correctly applied.

CHAPTER | FIXES

• Chapter 0: Objectives accomplished / new objectives were silent in CH0 intentionally, to not be too disturbing to the atmosphere. An additional change is now to only have 1 objective: “Investigate the Red Platform”, instead of first “Reach” then “Investigate”. This is to avoid disturbance too. Please let me know if you think it should be reverted or if it’s better like this ;)
  
  
• Chapter 1: When coming from Chapter 0 to Chapter 1, some objects, like moving platforms, some doors, vents, and other objects, could be significantly darker than expected. A restart of Chapter 1 was required to fix it. It should now be fixed and be correct, even when coming from Chapter 0 to Chapter 1.
  
  
• Chapter 1: Cannot use cables to skip the dual laser cages with 2 cubes anymore
  
  
• Chapter 1: Added “Reinitialize Cube” button in the dual laser cages/cubes area, in order to prevent a potential softlock. This may be making this part too easy, so maybe it will be removed, if enough players suggest its removal. But maybe it will remain if we see it does indeed prevent the softlock, and doesn’t add any confusion. I prefer this rather than an auto-respawn in this case, as the auto-respawn might respawn the cube by mistake / when not necessarily desired.
  
  
• Chapter 2: First room: Vertical moving platform above the space gap will now crush you if you stand in between the void and the ground. It will still not crush you if you have no ground below your feet (intended), but will do if you get squashed between the platform edge and the ground. There is still some tolerance, if you are far away enough from the gap’s edge, you will still be pushed back instead of crushed (intended)
  
  
• Chapter 2: Fixed visual rendering bug with windows that caused a window to be rendered on top of another window.
  
  
• Chapter 2: Fixed a bug that caused Power Core to indefinitely respawn in a loop showing Power Core Respawned, after reaching the first Zero-Gravity room.
  
  
• Chapter 3: Fixed a bug that could cause infinite relocation just after the first Hyper-Speed blinking lasers.
  
  
• Chapter 3: Fixed a visual bug at the very end, that could cause some “white lines” due to the blinking lights in the corridor, when looked at from outside / above.
  
  
• Chapter 4: Fixed a rare bug that could cause the Secret Passage to be in an inverted state, blocking the player.
  
  
• Chapter 4: Fixed Hyper-Speed Suppressor sometimes not showing the “red cross” above Healthbar, meant to show that Hyper-Speed is currently unavailable.
  

BUG | FIXES

• Taser: Fixed an exploit that allowed you to control the direction of a pushed Cube by rotating the camera very fast just after a Hyper-Shot.
  
  
• Cameras: Destroying them right as they detect you, will ensure the shield is disabled (to avoid camera football)
  
  
• Moving Saws: Fixed a rare case in which Saws would rotate incorrectly sideways when not needed.
  
  
• Moving Saws: Moving saws, which need to rotate sideways, could sometimes not be perfectly aligned with their moving direction. They should now always be aligned in a straight line with their moving direction.
  
  
• Moving Lasers: Fixed remaining edge cases with Moving Lasers, which could become de-synced from their intended pattern. There should not be any remaining cases of Laser movement de-syncs anymore. To be tested, though, as this fix might have broken other specific cases of Moving Lasers.
  
  
• Flashlight: When triggering a cutscene with Flashlight currently ON, the flashlight will no longer move along with the cutscene camera during the transition (it will remain where it is, as intended). In addition, some cutscenes will now force Flashlight state OFF during the cutscene, and restore it after the cutscene (intended). Please report as a visual bug, if you see cutscenes in which the flashlight should be forced-off to avoid various visual bugs or strange-looking situations.
  
  
• Bug Reporting: Should no longer be possible to interact with objects or other actions while the Bug Reporting page is displayed.
  
  
• Bug Reporting: Video URL field could sometimes be resized to be taller than intended. Shouldn’t happen anymore.
  
  
• Jetpack Notifications: Low Fuel sound and text notification system have changed. It now is as follows:
  
• - Low Fuel Sound: Played when going from "normal fuel" to "low fuel" state, with a minimum allowed interval of 3s. This prevents it being spammed when you are letting it recharge slightly, then using Jetpack again (avoids spamming the low fuel beep sound)
  
• - Low Fuel Text Notification: "Low Fuel" text notification when going from "normal fuel" to "low fuel" state, is now shown only once per game session. This allows new players to see it the first time they use the Jetpack and reach Low Fuel. Then, only the sound plays. Every time you restart the game, you'll see it once, just as a reminder of associating the notification to the sound. Then, only the sound is played. This change is to avoid having "Low Fuel" notification appearing too often on the screen.
  
  
• Encryption Keys: Approaching a Formatting Terminal, with a Power Core or Cube, would play the dialog and show Incompatible Device Notification, whereas this was meant to only happen when approaching them with an information Tablet. Also, it used to only appear once. It will now always appear if the player approaches a Formatting Terminal with an information Tablet instead of an Encryption Key.
  
  
• Custom Resolution: The -allowCustomResolution argument to allow custom resolution, to use with -screen-width and -screen-height was working correctly for most PC configurations. However, it should now also work for more specific setups and Windows versions. If you still experience resolution resets, please try also by adding the new -noForcedRefreshRate (but only as last resort, as it should not be needed, in theory)
  
  
• Leaderboards: Potential fix for Cycle leaderboard, which would always incorrectly round legitimate scores milliseconds to 0. It should now send the correct entire game duration value, with correct milliseconds. To be tested if properly fixed, though. To test this, make sure you never enable Debug Mode in your run.
  

ADDITIONAL HOTFIX 0.603

• Game install size on disk increased, because of a test using a different type of compression
  
• The change should significantly speed up loading times on older PCs
  
• The change should not change anything for modern/powerful PCs - it should feel the same
  
• Performance in general should be better on older PCs, same on modern PCs
  
• Chances of crashes during loading times should be reduced on older PCs
  
• This is a test, if too many players are affected negatively regarding level loading times / performance, let us know, it might be reverted
  
• Screenshot Mode: Default shortcut changed from F3 to F11 to reduce chances of mistakenly activating it

UPDATE

IMPORTANT: RESTART CURRENT CHAPTER

If you were playing before this update and do not wish to start a new game / reset your save, please restart current Chapter from the beginning to avoid bugs, prevent invalid softlocks, and ensure the new bugfixes are correctly applied.

BUG | FIXES

• Audio: Hopefully, sometimes hearing electricity sounds in the background, should be solved. Maybe not yet fixed for 100% of cases and 100% of hardware combinations? To be tested.
  
  
• Audio: Hopefully, sometimes hearing electricity sounds for 0.1-0.5s upon respawning, should be solved. Maybe not yet fixed for 100% of cases and 100% of hardware combinations? To be tested.
  
  
• Taser: Could fire Hyper-Shot through walls, if a piece of broken glass or breakable window was the first object to be hit by the Hyper-Shot.
  
  
• Taser Ammo: Fixed a bug which could cause you to have the wrong amount of maximum Taser Clip ammo after Upgrading Capacity. Starting from Chapters page should always start the Chapter with a full clip (at current max ammo value). Transitioning from a Chapter to another should continue to keep the amount of ammo of the previous Chapter.
  
  
• Power Cores: Fixed a hard crash, if you were to quick load shortly after it entered “Unauthorized Object” state, and various other textures-related bugs along with it for this situation.
  
  
• Power Cores: Fixed a bug that could cause Power Core to be invisible / inexistant, after a Quick Load performed just after it was “Unauthorized Object”.
  
  
• Power Cores: Could remove Power Cores from Slots, from a specific angle that was undesired.
  
  
• Power Cores: Should now be possible to insert through broken pieces of glass (could prevent it previously).
  
  
• Cube / Tablet Surfing: Recent fixes to prevent Cube Surfing / Tablet Surfing was not working as intended for Tablets. Should now be harder to exploit Cube Surfing / Tablet Surfing, even with Hyper-Speed enabled. It’s still somewhat feasible, the idea is just to make it harder to break the game by making it not easy and less efficient.
  
  
• Chapter 1: If you skip the door that closes in front of you using Hyper-Speed (red saws area just after the first lift), then enter with a Dodge from below to return back inside this room, the button to open the door will now be unavailable (intended). This makes it hard to come back out, but it’s also not intended that you re-do this from inside, once you have been past it already.
  
  
• Chapter 1: First Cube ever area: Could somehow skip the door closure, get back outside, and climb the wall and skip many parts. Shouldn’t be possible anymore.
  
  
• Chapter 2: Fixed illegal skip from roof of very first room using Hover.
  
  
• Chapter 2: Fixed some visual bugs when backtracking just before meant to enter the Zero-G Room.
  
  
• Chapter 2: Fixed being able to remain in-air during the trapped lift with saws.
  
  
• Chapter 2: Fixed various gaps and visual bugs.
  
  
• Chapter 3: It should be possible to use previous Power Cores to open the Crypto-Locator door - it used to Destroy them as you approached the Power Core Slot.
  
  
• Chapter 3: Mysterious “saws rotated the wrong way”: Unsure if fixed, as I cannot reproduce it, but maybe it is fixed? To be tested.
  
  
• Chapter 3: Fixed case where backtracking inside the newly re-designed room, after Crows cutscene, would cause it to re-save the checkpoint inside.
  
  
• Chapter 3: Fixed incorrect default insertion position of Power Core protected by Camera (for the first Electrified Water area)
  
  
• Chapter 3: Bonus Room accessible around the Sequencer Room area, could sometimes have the Cube misplaced, not on the desired button to keep the vent open, resulting in a closed vent. Should now be fixed.
  
  
• Chapter 3: Various visual bug fixes, including some disappearing objects, etc.
  
  
• Chapter 3: Fixed seeing noticeable missing switches when going through the Bonus Rooms and looking through the window towards the platform/cube puzzle before the electrified water.
  
  
• Chapter 4: Train Ride: After passing the final saws, you
• *cannot backtrack anymore**
• (Imminent Termination)*.
  
  
• Chapter 4: Train Ride: Prevented softlock if player goes on left, then right side of the laser fields
  
  
• Mines: Mines explosion should be louder and heard better (they used to be mostly silent)
  
  
• TAA: Enabled could cause some blurriness like “motion blur through walls”
  
  
• Custom Resolution: More small changes were made, hopefully should help avoiding reset resolutions. However, having multiple monitors connected, might be the source of the issues experienced. I think it should work fine with a single monitor, maybe having a second one and rendering on a different monitor will cause issues? To be tested.
  
  
• Error: Fixed a possible game error when very quickly requesting to restart the current Chapter, just as the game is currently auto-saving. To be tested.

NEW

CHAPTER 3 | Re-Design

• You should no longer be able to skip past the first Crows cutscene.

• There is now also new optional/secret area here, but we will let you find it for yourself :)

The reason why players awaiting for Steam keys have still not yet received them, is because we have run out of Steam keys and have reached the authorized limit.

We will be migrating the game to the Steam Playtest system to override this limit. This will likely change the way you access the Pre-Alpha, even for existing Pre-Alpha testers.

We will keep you updated on when and how this migration will take place.

Once this update is stabilized for the first major bugs in Chapter 1 New Game, and the Demo is safely updated on Steam to 0.598, we will take some time to work on a maintenance update for the Pocket Edition. It will include many bug fixes and some first visual improvements.

We'll keep you posted on that, but you can expect a BETA very soon!

NEW

LIGHTING | Rework

• G.Round Playtest was very positive, but the most frequent complaint was that the "Flashlight was too bright and hurt the eyes"
• Some areas had lights with too strong intensities, which could be a strain on the eyes as well

• All shaders and textures of the game have been modified, in order to less exaggerate the "lighting highlights" from objects, and have a more neutral rendering. This was the main source of the issue, as having a light source next to an object or flashlight would result in very strong metallic highlights, that could be a strain on the eyes
• Every single light in the game has been manually re-balanced to avoid being too bright
• All textures and shaders are now slightly darker, which means that in general, the game feels darker in many areas (lighting highlights are no longer / much less exaggerated). Many more lights were added to counter-act this in some areas.
• Extremely bright/white metallic highlights are greatly reduced to avoid strain on the eyes (door frames, cube frames, vent walls, etc.). They still remain, to give a metallic feel, but are less exaggerated.
• Grounds and ceiling tiles are now slightly darker, which adds contrast, and reduces the over-bright lighting in many areas.
• White pipes (ones attached to various fans) are now much less reflecting white/bright colors, meaning they will have less situations in which their lighting is "too bright” because of a nearby light. They also now feel more metallic with a real-time light source nearby.

Below are a few screenshots to illustrate these differences mentioned above

• Shooting a dynamic light (not static lights) with Hyper-Shot will now completely turn it off forever. Later on, a light destruction effect will be added (not yet implemented). In addition, regular shots and Hyper-Shot will now also reduce the associated reflections to make the area significantly darker (as it should, because less light present means less visible reflections).
• Bloom has been reworked to be less intense than before, to avoid overbright areas with some lights. In addition, many lights in all Chapters were changed to be less intense, in order to avoid overbright areas next to them.

Now that the game is less blinding, and more realistic, we will likely add a few more highlights in the future, but they will remain less intense and not on large surfaces.

WHITE REFLECTION CIRCLES

CHANGES

• Power Cores: Interaction ranges to remove / insert Power Cores has been slightly reduced, as you could remove them from very far away.

• Cutscenes: Black top/bottom cutscene bands now remain visible when the game is paused (but behind the menu)

BUG FIXES

• Chapter 1: Fixed “Tablet Destroyed” in Chapter 1 after the “I’m not your shrink” lasers room.

• Infinite Jump: Fixed a bug that could sometimes cause the Player to be able to indefinitely continue jumping from the air, after repeatedly jumping from Moving Platforms / Lift buttons surface. Thanks Latte, Chris & Aidan for the videos ;) The infinite flying / jetpack bug is separate than this though, so fixing this bug doesn’t mean the other cases are solved as well yet.

• Power Cores: Latest update that improved Power Core physics collisions, also made it much harder to insert them into Power Core Slots while in Zero-Gravity. This has now been fixed, and it’s easier, as it was before 0.596

• Object Respawns: Latest 0.596 update made many/all respawn systems areas for Power Cores / Cubes to be non-functional. This has been fixed, so respawn areas should be functional correctly again.

• Pressure Plates: When multiple Cubes are placed on a pressed down Pressure Plate, removing 1 of them would deactivate and reactivate the Pressure Plate within 1s. Should now no longer react this way and remain pressed down, when another Cube is already actively pressing the Pressure Plate down, and the other second one is removed.

• Pressure Plates: Fixed a new bug with Pressure Plates, introduced in 0.596, that could cause Cubes to be ejected / catapulted fast from Pressure Plates upon deactivation (return to unpressed red state). Should now behave normally, pushing them gently upwards instead of sending them off flying in the air.

• Zero-G Boost: Fixed a bug that could cause being able to Zero-G boost indefinitely, after a Last Checkpoint load with Speedrun Mode disabled.

• Crouching: Fixed a rare bug that could cause crouch/standing up transition to provoke the Player to die on some moving platforms / lifts.

• Saving: Dying while reloading Taser, and while a save is happening, wouldn’t always save the Taser as full upon loading the save later on. Should now work as expected.

• Reported Bugs: Hundreds more in-game reported bugs and suggestions implemented.

Since the Demos will be updated soon to 0.596, if you don't have much time to test, you may focus on New Game only, in Chapter 0 & Chapter 1, as the Demo content is limited to this.

NEW

ACHIEVEMENTS

• Death by electrified water
• Destroy first Camera
• Destroy 10 different Cameras
• Stun first Camera
• Stun 10 different Cameras
• Enable Zero-Gravity the first time

CHAPTER 0

Here's an image of the new red volumetric light beam in Chapter 0:

• The word "presents" is now more readable in the introduction sequence

• Fixed some potential softlocks in which the player could get stuck in corners. Some might still remain.

PRESSURE | Plates

• The slightly higher edges are now taken into account in the Cube’s collisions, and they now need to be placed more to the center to be considered valid:

• They remain tolerant, as to not be frustrating, but a small part on the corner, or too much on the outside, will no longer activate it:

JUMP | Improvements

CUBE SURFING | Props Flying

CHANGES

• Chapter 0: Show HUD no longer plays any sound (whether the first Objective will be shown or not). This is now intended.

• Chapter 0: Current upgrades display on Pause Menu is now fully hidden in Chapter 0, even if you have started from Chapters page - they should remain hidden in that sequence. They will be restored when you reach Chapter 1.

• Chapter 1: Added a new Checkpoint, when the first Taser Battery is retrieved in the Lockdown room. If you die before retrieving it, it is intended and normal that you see the “wall explosion” moment again. This new Checkpoint is to be tested!

• Chapter 3: Musical hacking minigame is now too hard for some players, as new players are unable to get past it and report “bugs”. This puzzle is now reverted back to the previous logic, that fails upon any mistakes in the code.
  Later on, when the difficulty system will be implemented, the 0.595 logic for this puzzle (fail only on first mistake), will be used when Puzzles Difficulty is set to Hard.

• Chapter 4: Flames corridor before Processing Center: Now damages significantly more, as it should not be survived in most cases of NG. You’ll now need at least 1 Healthpack in your Backpack + Sprint + Dodge + Speed Level 3 + Health Level 3 to survive it consistently. Missing any of the last 2 mentioned upgrades is still theoretically possible (especially at low framerate), but harder to do consistently (not recommended), and will still require you to Sprint + Dodge.

• Power Cores: Fixed inaccurate collisions between Power Cores and pillars in the game. They should now be greatly improved, and collide properly with walls and pillars. This is a dangerous change, though - Power Cores functionality should be tested:

• Switches: Reduced manual interaction range slightly, for all switches in the game. To be tested if any issues occur in specific cases.

• Mines: It was possible to stand on Mines. It’s no longer possible - they will now explode.

• Recordings: Listening to a Recording from the Recordings page will now pause the Menu or Chapter music, and resume it correctly when finished.

LEVEL FIXES

• Chapter 2: Fixed visual black shadow bug on an Exit vent.

• Chapter 4: Fixed Solar Panels distorted texture. These Solar Panels will be reworked in the future to look better. This is just a temporary fix.

• Chapter 4: Fixed various Power Core related softlocks and issues with being able to pick them up from too far away

BUG FIXES

• Taser: Fixed a case that would result in reloading an invisible Taser, if you were to reload after / while using Scope.

• Taser: Pausing the game while holding the Aim button, would remove the Taser, and quickly show it again upon resume.

• Taser: Pausing the game while Hyper-Shot is currently charging, would continue the charging animation while paused.

• Taser: Pausing the game while charging Hyper-Shot would reset the Hyper-Shot charging to zero.

• Taser: Fixed a case that would cause Module Management to not work properly after using Scope.

• Laser-Equipped Cameras: Depending on your framerate, many hits from the shooting cameras would not properly register. This has been significantly improved, and you should now be more accurately damaged when hit by the Camera’s shots.

• Breakable Walls: Aiming exactly between small bricks of the wall, would not register the shot to destroy it. In addition, the screen will no longer show it’s a breakable wall, once it has been damaged at least once. In addition, remaining flying wall pieces should now happen much less frequently than before.

• Zero-Gravity: Fixed a bug that could cause indefinitely keeping “upwards gravity”, if a Quick Load occurred to load a Zero-G state save, while the game was already transitioning from Normal Gravity to Zero-Gravity. To be tested if this doesn’t provoke new bugs with checkpoints in Zero-G, etc.

• Quick Load: Fixed an exploit that could allow to spam Jump during Quick Load, and resulting in an additional (illegal) jump even while in the air. To be tested, and to verify if this doesn’t introduce new bugs with Quick Load in normal conditions.

• Game Saves: Switching from a Chapter to another would sometimes keep previous run’s quick save and checkpoint autosaves. All these cases should be fixed, and saved data should be cleared properly, thus preventing various exploits.

• Taser Batteries: Saving the game after picking up a Taser Battery, then exiting to main menu, and resuming again, would result in the Taser Battery being respawned and present instantly. It will now correctly not be present, and will only respawn after the intended delay.

• Reported Bugs: Hundreds more in-game reported bugs and suggestions implemented.

LEADERBOARDS | In-Game Page

CHAPTER 1 | Recordings & Tablets

Some Tablets now have a different text in New Game+, so it might be worth to revisit them!

CHAPTER 1 | Accessible Rooftop

CHAPTER 1 | Lockdown Area

In addition, IG will now react to activating the button manually instead of shooting at it (it's intended to be possible, but not the main path)

WATER | Option & Optimization

240 FPS SUPPORT | Framerate Options

240 Hz Screens

Note: It is recommended to keep Reflections to Medium, Decals at Low / Medium to reach higher framerates (Dynamic reflections is the most expensive setting)

Framerate Option & V-Sync

If you wish to simply disable V-Sync while still targeting max framerate, simply select the second-to-last maximum framerate option - it will disable V-Sync and sure no screen tearing will happen (best of both worlds), as the game will remain 1 FPS below than your monitor's refresh rate.

DYNAMIC REFLECTIONS | Rework

Note: They are now meant not to be present on all surfaces. It is normal that you’ll find various areas where you cannot see any Dynamic Reflections (intended for either performance reasons, or because they have not been implemented in this room yet, and sometimes because they would simply be too distracting).
