Today I'm just releasing a small patch for a character movement related bug. The next milestone will be to get geocaching included in the "classic" mode and give the gameplay more complexity with it. If you have any feedback or ideas, let me know.

Version 0.1.3 : ALPHA(EARLY ACCESS)

  • Enhancement: Display attention note in main menu when receiving new inventory.
  • Fix: Running down on a ledge from certain stones did cause the character not to show fall animation.

  • Fix: Rank did appear wrong if the game stats request was delayed in the main menu.

  • Enhancement: Drifting has now a noticeable advantage.
  • Enhancement: Rockfall will be triggered with a rising chance if you move closer to the edge terrains. Rockfall will not happen on the grass soil and is not a time-based event anymore. Rockfall will now serve as a level boundary.

  • Add: Midairjump.
