Happy Haunting and Happy Hunting!

Launch Options and Virtual Desktop Stream fix.

This is a quick patch adding an additional launch option for Oculus VR mode, as well as a fix for people using Virtual desktop for streaming to quest headsets (hands were rotated strangely).

New Content: Garage Barage!

Hal!

It appears the Takelings have trapped you in the garage. Grab your nearest tennis racket and prepare to defend yourself. These pests will throw anything your way so remember: if you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a bowling ball!

Make use of your trusty wooden racket to knock away projectiles. Takelings causing mischief just out of reach? Clock em' good with a well thrown racket and it will return to the hand using Bungie Cord Technology, oooo, it's the future!. Beware, the racket can only take so much damage, so dodge the heavier items.



Takelings are drawn to these common garage items:

  • Old damaged lawn mowers that you were intending to repair the next moment you have some free time.
  • Coolers filled with bottles of your favorite unlabeled brown liquids.
  • Corked bottles of non-descript toxic substances.
  • Bowling balls teetering on high up shelves.
  • Sparking wires tucked up behind your garage opener... for safety.


Good luck out there Hal!

New Content Around the Corner!



Hello Hal!

I'm delighted to announce that Takeling infestations have been discovered in new rooms of the house. Yes that's right! You'll soon be able to experience previously unexplored lands such as: GARAGE, and, BACKYARD. While I'm finishing up renovations; clearing cob webs, squashing bugs, here's a sneak peak of what's around the corner!




iOS App Patch

There's been a quick fix sent out regarding previously missing entitlements for the iOS app.

-iPhone users will now find much more reliable connectivity on the Takelings Controller App. Make sure to update the app at: Takelings App

Animations and Effects Update

This patch comes with a few animation updates as well as some fixes to physics jank in the kitchen level.

-Takelings now look directly at Hal (eye contact for maximum sympathy).
-Takelings now stand up on their own, rather than some instances where they would freeze upside down until the player provided a movement input.
-Teleporting rigidbodies back into the play zone now plays a smoke puff particle animation.

Launch Bug Fixed

Fixed issue where launching the game would hang.
Players would hear the music of the game and see a still image of the title. The game would either freeze here, never progressing or resume after a delay.
