Patch 1.2.5
Hey everyone! I have just published a new patch that fixes a few of the issues that popped up over the last few days.
Here are the details:
Balance changes to regular enemies
Fixed bug where certain items would be usable in battle
Fixed bug relating to Big Scrib
Added monster room
Fixed crash during certain shmup minigames
Fixed audio bug in some areas
Fixed some collisions in some late game areas
A few typos...........
Please update to Version 1.2.5 before continuing! Additionally, if you are planning to continue your PC save on a new device (PC or Steamdeck), make sure you run the game on the original device after updating. Otherwise there is the possibility of save files being wiped!
Thanks.
Patch 1.2.3
Good afternoon everyone, I have just uploaded an update to the game. Please update to Version 1.2.3 to continue your Knuckle Sandwich adventure. Here's what's new:
Added new way of handling save files.
Fixed issue when using Auto Fight option during Chapter 2 tutorial.
Fixed incorrect text in Chapter 6.
Fixed crash when viewing using certain non-damaging skills with animations turned off.
Fixed crash during Math Magic.
Fixed audio issue in Statues.
Fixed missing phone call dialogue.
Fixed issue in sliding puzzle late game.
Fixed visual error in late-game Skill.
Fixed an egg-related problem.
Removed option to view Kickstarter credits early.
As you may note, I have added a new way of handling save files. The game will now create "savefile.ini" in its install folder from this version onward. You will be able to use this file to move save data between devices. I will be using this to test cloud saves in the future, we just gotta make sure it's working correctly beforehand. I do not recommend messing with this file if you do not know what you are doing!
Thanks heaps!
