No Pineapple Left Behind

v1.1.0 Obstinate Orange

This update fixes a few minor issues. In particular, it was possible to screw up the first tutorial by not selecting Quantification at the correct time. While this is still possible, you'll pretty much have to TRY to do it :P

v1.0.6

This update fixes a few minor bugs involving lasers and brain hacks, and clarifies in the UI that a Vice Principal cannot hack a child that doesn't have a class to go to.

Hotfix v1.0.5

We fixed the UI! It looks much better on low-res computers now.
We also finally (hopefully) got the game to run on a Mac, and do so without stretching.

Hotfix v1.0.3

Fixes a ton of keyboard command issues. In particular, the game would not recognize the "secondary" commands listed in the options panel, and would never save any changes made by the user.

Hotfix v1.0.2

Fixes various tutorial bugs that people have been reporting. The tutorials now force the game to pause until you follow the instruction (meaning that it is much less likely for you to accidentally skip a section of the tutorial).

Hotfix v1.0.1

Fixed:

  • Mac version doesn't always download
  • Weird problems with Macbook Air displays

Released!

No Pineapple Left Behind is now available on Steam. There's a 10% discount for the first week.

It's been a long, long two years of development; lots of highs lows, hijinks, and shennanigans. Special thanks to our beta testers, without whom this release would not be possible. We hope you (yes, you!) enjoy the game.

Hotfix: Loquacious Lime B

We found a major bug! We just fixed it.

In the previous update, we introduced a new rule in which children that are missing subjects in their schedule once classes start cost -$100 at the end of the day. (Translated: you get penalized if you don't have enough teachers at the start of classes.)

HOWEVER, there was a bug that applied this penalty after firing teachers at the end of the day. This has been corrected. You will never be penalized for firing teachers so that you do not have to pay them.

There's a few other bugs, which can be found in CHANGELOG.txt

Beta Update: Loquacious Lime

This update will erase your save file. However, we've added debugging tools. In the splash (intro) screen, press 1-9 on your keyboard to restart at that level.
