Halloween season is upon us and so is the Mr.Hack Jack: Spooky detective update !
Fear not, the police bot squad is as ineffective as it always was. But this time, their incompetence shines through all-new Halloween themes costumes and hats!
it also seems spiderwebs and pumpkins have taken over the Mr.Hack jack world! Spooky!
We also took this opportunity to squash some pesky bugs, fix some translation issues and improve all round performance.
Mr.Hack Jack 1.3
Thank you all who made videos! It allowed us to find and squish more bugs.
We're thinking about new content, what situations would you like to investigate?
1.3 is a minor update but we're giving a round-ish number as it signifies that we (think) fixed all the major outstanding bugs.
CHANGE LOG
In the tutorial section, removed a UI panel that was floating outside of the world's bounds and was still visible.
Fixed some material issues on the good ol' police chief.
