Hey all, I've been responding to private bug reports as well as just generally updating and tweaking the game and it's associated Steam demo relatively frequently, with the most recent patch being just a few minutes ago. Below is a general overview of all the tweaks and changes made since I launched the demo just over a week ago:
Fixed soft locks during basic & advanced tutorials
Fixed issue with display during matches scaling whole scene into view causing distortions and and losing panning
Fixed issue with losing a match during the cup that would get you stuck with incorrect menu display
Fixed display of text shadow during tutorials when at higher than 640x360
Made it so changing the music volume in the options will also effect the intro music
Fixed some crashes related to game looking for objects that no longer exist
Added support for Dualshock 4 Controllers with associated sprites and button mappings
Added support for Wireless Xbox One controllers when detected as "Bluetooth LE XINPUT compatible input device"
Added support for keyboard typing of names for match templates and profiles
Changed application icon to indicate it's a demo
Added new melee & move animations for Piro
Improved the small hit fx animation
ZONERS Demo is now available!
Tired of waiting for the official start of Steam Next Fest? Well I've got good news for you! The ZONERS demo is now live featuring:
- 4 playable characters & 5 stages in the single & multiplayer Match Maker mode - 2 difficulties & 1 playable character in the single player zoners cup mode
REMOTE PLAY I tried remote play with one of my fans across the atlantic an hour ago and it was predictably laggy, yet we still had a blast. If the game does well enough, I'll be sure to invest in some proper online play support for you all, so make some noise if you like what you see!!
BUGS & FEEDBACK If you downloaded the demo earlier today or yesterday, you might have had some issues in the cup mode when you lose. I've since updated the demo with a small patch which should fix a few things.
But if you come across any other bugs, report them to me on here, via email or twitter and I'll get them fixed ASAP!
Or if you just want to say hi, let me know what you like about the game, then don't be afraid to reach out either.
Thanks for reading & happy gaming,
