We were debating what to work on next for Shattered Planet (in addition to bugfixing, of course), and decided to open it up to the community!
If you haven't yet, please take a moment and vote in the poll to tell us devs what to do first!
Patch Notes (2.0.3 to 2.0.5)
Hi guys! Someone recently asked, "What are all these updates?!" and I realised not everyone reads the forums voraciously.
So! We've been mostly focusing on stability and crashes, so if you had a black screen recently, it has a high chance of being fixed now!
But here's a few other random bugs we fixed recently:
(Most) Achievements should now work in the OSX/Mac version
Venom Crablets and Crablet Princesses will no longer become un-attackable shadowpets on contact with Blight (they are now immune to Blight corruption, as intended)
Pets should no longer get damaged randomly by throwables that are not targeting/near them
Using the teleporter and clicking away shouldn't hang the game anymore
Datalog completion %% for the Companion category should no longer include un-earnable companions
The Crystal Jackpot level should now appear in Explorer Mode
Hope that helps! We'll try to be more vigilant about patch notes in the future!
Mac version now available
At long last, patient Mac players can shatter all the planets! No more waiting to punch those aliens!
If you have any problems at all, do feel free to contact us either on the Steam forums or email tanya@kitfoxgames.com and we'll try to fix it as soon as possible!
Launch Week Sales & Press
Shattered Planet sales across all PC distributors thus far (Steam, Humble, Desura)... over 2,500!
Indiegames.com said it was 'pretty great, IGN of Sweden called it 'charming and cozy', and various outlets use praise ranging from 'fantastic' to 'lovely' to 'incredibly fun and addictive'!
This is the last day of the 10% launch week discount, so if you're going to grab or gift a copy, now's the time. We still have a few bugs to fix, and some improvements in mind, but this is the cheapest it will be for awhile!
