Update 1.19 Is released! and along with some much needed changes to the boat controls, we're proud to announce that Guns of Midnight now has Steelseries Gamesense support!
LED keys on your Steelseries keyboard will now light up to indicate your Health, Rapidfire, and Spreashot reserves. All you need is a Steelseries LED keyboard and the Steelseries Engine 3 software on your computer.
The boat's movement is now controlled in the same way as the player's movement on foot: (WASD, Arrows, Left-Stick, or D-Pad), and boat's guns are now controlled with the Right-Stick or Mouse.
v1.19 Patch Notes
Updated boat controls to L-stick/R-Stick + Keyboard/Mouse.
Added fullscreen toggle to options menu (alt+enter also works)
Window can now be resized.
Integrated Steelseries Gamesense
Fixed audio volume bugs including menu music not playing if game is started with 0% music volume.
Update 1.17 Released!
Hey guys. v1.20 is still in the works, which will bring control re-mapping and custom resolution/performance settings, but in the meantime we have another big update that we just couldn't keep from you guys any longer!
Due to popular demand there are now checkpoints throughout the level, hopefully this will mitigate the torturous frustration of having to restart after every death. Still, in order to compete for the best times and to get a sweet new achievement (yes we added those as well), you'll want to escape without dying!
Far easier said than done. Enjoy!
v1.17 Patch Notes:
Added Checkpoints
Added Achievements
Fixed various block placement issues.
Fixed error with mouse-clicks on leaderboard menu.
Reverted collectible name of "Iron Ingots" to "Silver Ingots"
Update 1.15 Released!
v1.15 Patch Notes:
Reduced Icarus spawn rate over open water by 14.2%, and increased boat movement speed by 42.6% (balancing difficulty of the boat run)
Added control tips for the boat.
Fixed mouse compatibility issues with menu.
Fixed boat player direction bug.
Corrected score readout on endscreen and stats readout in leaderboard menu to show commas every 3 digits. (e.g. 1,000,000 instead of 1000000)
Fixed display issues.
Enemies can no longer shoot through closed doors.
Upcoming minor fixes, v1.15 in the works.
Hey everyone, we've noticed some feedback regarding the boat section, particularly that the controls are not clear. Among a few other tweaks in the upcoming patch, we'll be adding a visual control prompt that shows the boat's controls. In the meantime keep in mind that in the boat: Jump button accelerates, use/grenade buttons decelerate, your movement keys aim the autoguns, and of course the fire button remains the same. Dodge those bullets, escape the city!
