Monstermon Card Ending is Out!!
If you have all the Monstermon cards you should have a new item in the middle of your bedroom. Good luck with figuring out what to do with it!

When are we leaving early access?
So anyone who has asked this question and received a response is probably thinking the full release is coming today. I'm sorry to say that it isn't. The work I was planning on getting done this weekend was eaten up entirely by the antivirus bug. I'm pushing the release date back another week hopefully for the last time.

However...

I know a lot of you have been waiting for the final ending that I've been teasing for when you get all the Monstermon cards. I feel like you have all waited too long and while I was planning on saving it for the full release, I'm going to be releasing it either today or tomorrow depending on how testing goes.

As for what you can expect in the coming days besides the full ending you can expect...

-A title screen.
-An extra save file for you replay enthusiasts and speed runners.
-More bug fixes (keep posting them in the discussions, they help me more than anything.)


Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Have a good day at school.

Game development is hard.
To all Kindergarten players,

What an awful couple days it's been for updates. The black screen bug has been wrecking havoc on everyone with a virus scanner. I'm happy to announce that it has been fixed. The file that was causing the false flag was identified and updated and should no longer cause any problems. If your version number 0.93.1, you should be fine.

On top of that, the update that fixed the black screen bug also made it appear that everyone's data was erased. This was an oversight on my part and has since been corrected.

Everyone's data is fine with the exception of one group of people who I owe a huge apology to. Everyone who started playing the game for the first time during the period immediately following the 0.93.1 patch will not have their data properly saved until they restart the game. This only occurred if you started playing for the very first time within 15 minutes 0.93.1 being launched. If you are affected by this, I am truly sorry. It was a negligent mistake and will not happen again.

Thanks to everyone who helped me identify these problems and thanks to all who have shared kind words about the game. I couldn't ask for a better community.

-Connor

The Antivirus Bug
If you are having problems playing the game, I apologize. The latest update did not go as smoothly as I had hoped. It appears one of the changes made in the patch has caused the game to be flagged in various antivirus programs such as Webroot and Norton. I assure you that the game does not contain any malicious files and that these are false flags. I will be reaching out to these antivirus companies to get Kindergarten whitelisted before the full release.

In the mean time, if you are experiencing a bug where you start the game and you can't see the character and all the items are unlocked when they shouldn't be...

1. Disable your antivirus.
2. Uninstall and reinstall Kindergarten.
3. Run Kindergarten to make sure it worked.
4. Turn your antivirus back on.

It would also be very helpful to me if you could let me know which antivirus program you are using so I can get whitelisted on as many programs as possible.

If your game still doesn't work, please post on the discussion board or email me at Kindergartengame@gmail.com.

Thanks for your understanding and patience.

KINDERGARTEN v0.93 Released!
We're coming close to the finish line. Over the weekend I intend to wrap up a lot of the other bugs people have been having and finish some other features for the full release. We're on schedule to release the full version in 1 week!

v0.92.1 (The one that allows you to quit the game again.)
The quit button didn't actually let you quit in 0.92. This version will allow you to quit again.

KINDERGARTEN v0.92 Released!
Hopefully this one goes better than the last one. We added a new help section to the pause menu. It will be getting revamped for the full release, but it should help new players understand the game a bit better than the tutorial from previous versions.

-Added proper reset message to the principal's office.
-Spelling and grammar corrections.

That was bad. To all our new users who weren't able to move when they bought the game, we're really sorry! You should be good to go now.

KINDERGARTEN v0.91 Released!
Sorry for the delay on this one. We're still working on a bunch of stuff for the full release.

KINDERGARTEN v0.9 Released!
Sorry for the delay on this one. It features fixes for some popular bugs. Also, 0.9 doesn't really mean anything toward how many patches are left before the full release. We'll probably do v0.91. That doesn't mean full release is that far away though. We're aiming to have it out within the next 2 weeks. Stay tuned!
