Update 1.3 – New UI and Skins!



Hello guys! How are you doing?

After a long wait, we have finally set an agreement with the International Pigeons Association to release a new update for Pigeons Attack!

Check it out a brief explanation of what is new:


  • User Interface completely remade and improved;
  • Visual improvement of the main menu;
  • Added skins to the game;
  • New multiplayer lobby;
  • The dash ability doesn’t require a rune anymore;
  • Added new configs in the Options menu;
  • Added French as a new supported language (thank you Jessy);
  • Added Dutch as a new supported language (thank you Casper Vermeeren);
  • Added Hungarian as a new supported language (thank you Czeiner András);
  • Reduced the time of the splashed screen caused by the white pigeon;
  • Leaderboard now accepts high scores made in co op matches;
  • Fixed a bug that prevented some enemies to reach the player’s position, causing the round not to end.



Skins





Nothing better than putting a new cool clothing on and make the pigeons jealous of you during the war. Save your coins and buy skins to customize your hero, maybe this could even be a tactic to confuse your enemies. We will keep releasing new skins throughout the updates.


New User Interface





You can now look at the UI without feeling angry about it. In the previous versions, it looked more like an enemy pigeon that stands in your way of seeing the game. The user interface is prettier, more intuitive and with better transitions.


Options Menu





Besides improving its visual, we have added new options so you can customize your war against the evil pigeons:

General

  • Master volume slider;


Video

  • Textures quality;
  • Shadows quality
  • Anti-aliasing quality and mode;
  • Post Processing options;
  • Vegetation quality.


Controls

  • Crosshair’s size and color;
  • Confine or not cursor’s movement to the game window;
  • Toggle assisted aim while playing with joysticks.


New Lobby





The lobby is now a cozy place. You and your friends will have the opportunity to share a table in the most famous tavern from Almerath. It’s the moment you waited for laughing at your friends face for losing in a dumb way in the previous match and to show off the skins you have bought.
Now you don’t need to invite again your friends after a custom match. Everyone will get back to the lobby, where you will have the option to change character, map, runes, skins and start a new fight.


Novos idiomas



Pigeons are getting smarter. Now they know how to speak in French, Dutch and Hungarian, thanks to the amazing support of the players Jessy, Casper Vermeeren e Czeiner András who taught them the respective languages.


Thank you very much!



We are sorry for taking so long to release a new update. We are very grateful for your patience, for all the support and for trying to stop the pigeon’s domination


Thank you for your attention!

Discord Server



Pigeons Attack has a Discord server now! Join our server and find players to play with, talk about how incredible you are by surviving 30 rounds or just write pigeon noises in the chat. Pigeons are also welcome:

https://discord.gg/6espKPY

We will also keep posting some new things we are adding to the game there, other than just making a single patch note when a update is live.

Update 1.2 – New secret character!




Hello guys! How are you doing?

We have added a new (but secret) character to the game! Well, not so secret now that you all know about it… This new character can’t be bought via Main Menu as the others, you must find out how to unlock it ;)

Here is a summary of what has changed:


  • Added a new (secret) playable character;
  • Fixed a bug that prevented pigeons from pooping on the floor when playing offline.



I’m looking forward to hearing from you guys if you were able to capture it.
Hope you have fun playing with the new character!

Don’t forget to leave your suggestions and requests.


Thank you for your attention and support!

Update 1.1 – Map selection on multiplayer and Spanish!



Hello guys! How are you doing?

You can now play on the other maps on the online multiplayer mode! After knowing all paths from the Village by heart, guess it’s time to explore new regions of Almerath. We’ve also added Spanish to the available languages, thanks to David de la Nuez!

Here is a summary of what has changed:


  • Added map selection on the online multiplayer mode (Custom Room);
  • Added random map on the online multiplayer mode (Quick Match);
  • Added Spanish to the available languages;
  • Fixed a bug that prevented the "Don't touch me!" achievement from unlocking in some cases;
  • Fixed a bug that prevented the joystick controller from properly working when using Liz on a multiplayer match;
  • Bug fixes and improvements.



New maps on the multiplayer mode (Online)





All maps are now available for playing on the online multiplayer mode. If you are in a custom lobby (the one you can invite friends), the leader of the room will be able to select the desired map on the list. The available maps on this list will depend on having a player inside the room that has already bought it. In other word, you can play a map even if you haven’t bought it yet, as long as someone among you and your friends has already unlocked it.
The availability of maps works the same way on a Quick Match, but it will be randomly selected before starting the game.

Spanish Localization



Pigeons Attack is now fully localized into Spanish! The localization was done by David de la Nuez Medina. Thank you David for the amazing job! If Spanish is your native language and you want to switch to it, just visit the “Options”menu to change. The language should initialize as default for new players.



Hope you are having fun playing the game!

Don’t forget to leave your suggestions and requests.

Thank you!

Update 1.0.1 - Invite Friends



Hello guys! How are you doing?

The option to invite friends is finally live! Just follow these simple steps:


  • Open the online mode as usually;
  • There is now a selection called "Custom Room";
  • After creating the room, invite your friends!


Forgive us for not having this feature since day one and thank you all for playing the game!

We'll continue updating the game, specially the online mode. The next things we're going to focus are making it easy to play again with your friends (not needing to invite to a new room after game over and being able to play in other maps as well).


If you find any wierd bug, please let us know.


Thank you again for your patience and for playing Pigeons Attack!

Update 1.0 – Out of Early Access!



Hello guys! How are you doing?

The day has finally come! Pigeons Attack is now out of Early Access mode and officially released on Steam! But don’t worry, this doesn’t mean the game won’t receive more cool stuff in the future.

Here is a summary of what has changed:

  • Increased lightmap resolution, in other words, shadows look better now;
  • Added an option to toggle Ambient Occlusion effect;
  • Fixed a bug in the online multiplayer mode where sometimes death and life amount weren’t synchronized;
  • Bug fixes and overall improvements.



Thank you very much!


As a solo indie developer, seeing people playing my game was my main fuel to continue the project, despite all the problems faced. Specially during face-to-face events, where I was able to hear the players laughing, making jokes and puns about pigeons and having fun with the game. That’s an awesome feeling that I wish all devs can experience it as well, in case you’re one or plan to be. The critics and suggestions were vital to improve the game. The online and local co-op mode were requests that you guys kept asking me, to name a few, and I’m really glad to have added them to the game.

Well, before I start crying and wet my keyboard (one must not show weakness while pigeons are watching), I would like to thank you all for playing the game! Thank you early access players, new players or if you just whishlisted it. Thank you for the suggestions, critics and for following/supporting the project for so long.


Hope you have fun playing the game, alone or with your friends!
Don’t forget to leave your suggestions and requests.



Thank you!

Update 0.9.8 - Achievements!

Hello guys! How are you doing?

We've added achievements to the game! Now you don't need to take a screenshot of your accomplishment to prove to your jealous friend that you made it to round 20. Just show off your achievement on your profile ;)

Some questions that may pop in:



I've already bought all the maps, how do I get the achievement now?

Don't worry, just open the game and the Steam achievements should appear as soon as you enter the main menu scene.

My highscore shows that I've already reached round X, but no achievement appears

Thanks for playing the game and making it that far, but unfortunately you'll have to reach it again to be able to unlock the achievement. The game difficulty has been tweaked throughout the versions, so the achievement will show that everyone faced the same challenges to unlock it. Sorry about that.



I'm curious to see the strategies you'll use to unlock some difficult achievements. Hope you have fun completing them all.

Thanks for playing and for reading!

Update 0.9.6 - Chinese, Russian and Japanese!

Hello there!

Just a quick announcement: we've added Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Russian and Japanese languages to the game!

Check out the "Options" menu to switch between languages.


Bye bye!
Valeu, falou!
再见!
再見!
Пока!
さようなら

Update 0.9.5 – Online Multiplayer!




Hello guys! How are you doing?

You asked, we did it: online multiplayer is now available on today’s update! You can play together with 3 more friends and help save the world from the evil pigeons (or join them by throwing bombs at your “allies”). The multiplayer is still in beta, so if you experience some weird bug, please let us know.


Here is a summary of what has changed. You can read more details below it:


  • Added Online Multiplayer mode (up to 4 players);
  • Local Coop mode now supports 4 players (joysticks required);

Now, the details…


Online Multiplayer






You can finally fight pigeons with all your friends or other players through the online multiplayer mode! It supports up to 4 players, no joystick required (but if you want, you can use it).

This beta works with a quick match lobby: you enter in a random room and wait for other players to join the lobby as well. As soon as another player comes in, the countdown of 10 seconds begins and if no one else enters, the game starts with the minimum of 2 players. That means, if you want to play with your friends, you should pay attention to the countdown so no one is left behind.

Don’t worry, we will implement an option for creating a custom room in further updates.


Hope you have fun playing the new multiplayer mode! Please let us know if you have some suggestions or found a weird bug :D

Thanks for the support!
