TEASER for V1.4
Introduction
Hello everyone! Long time no see! I've spent the last few months working on version 1.4. I figured it was time to post some of the progress, and answer some common questions I've gotten about what the update will contain.
Warning this post will contain spoilers! And warning this is a work in progress!
What will Version 1.4 Contain?
Version 1.4 will contain more content for Easymode, and the first 16 levels of Hardmode (up to the Dragon boss).
What kind of Easymode Content?
I've been fleshing out the existing content, fixing bugs, and adding more levels after the Boomerangs. Specifically I've been working on a small series of content focused on chapters and characters from "Journey to the West" (西遊記):
Journey to the West Entrance:
Journey to the West Temple:
What does Hardmode Content Entail?
Hardmode is a mix of new and old content. The best way to explain them is "remixes" of levels for Easymode. I do not intend to recreate every single level from Easymode, but I'd like to recreate the main ones, and focus more effort into Hardmode levels.
Hardmode Grandma/Dog Level:
Hardmode Cop Level:
Hardmode Dragon Boss:
When will Version 1.4 release?
I am aiming to complete this version within the coming months. I am currently debating on sidetracking to make some Halloween Themed levels for the holiday, so let me know if that is something you'd enjoy.
When will the MAC Version release?
With V1.4 I am going to procure a MAC computer to compile the game for MAC users, so if all goes well they should release at the same time.
For Time Wizard Fans (Forsen's Community): Will there be more Time Wizard in V1.4?
The easy answer is yes, but how much? I am not sure just yet ;)
Any New Language Support?
I have made some friends that have offered to translate the game in a multitude of languages. But I am always looking for more translators. Specifically I am looking for someone to do future Chinese, Japanese, French, and Spanish translations.
Will the price of Jump Off The Bridge increase for the update?
It will increase, but I have not yet decided by how much.
Outro
Feel free to message me directly on Steam, or my email jumpoffthebridgex@gmail.com regarding any other questions, comments, complaints, level ideas, suggestions, criticisms, or if you are interested in translating the game in your native language.
Thank you everyone for your patience, and comments. I'll see everyone again soon!
Small Bugfix V1.3
V1.3 Notes:
Bug fixed where you could softlock the game by throwing the items from the city into a hollow gap near the Immovable Pig.
Version 1.2 Update! Partial 官话 Support! Checkpoint System! 存档! 谢谢!
V1.2 Patch Notes
Mandarin Support for game text. (All menus will be converted later.)
Archive/Save/Checkpoint System in place on key levels!
Infinite Bridge Solution Transition improved.
Hey everyone,
I've been getting a lot of messages about archiving/saving progress. With this patch, I have introduced a system that saves your progress. The first checkpoint is located at the "Puzzle Dog Level." When you've unlocked a checkpoint, it is denoted by the large green lock that appears on your screen. I may add text for that later. When you startup Easymode, you will be taken to a screen that allows you to select the checkpoint you'd like to start at.
I've also been asked about Mandarin support. I've added a menu on load that allows for you to select between English and Mandarin. All the NPC's in game text has been translated via Google Translate, I will be hiring a proper Translator at the end of the month to get better translations. I also will overhaul the menus in a future update to allow the entire game in Mandarin.
Next update will be a content update with more levels in several weeks. Until then, thank you for playing Jump Off The Bridge!
