Update #5: Bug fixes, redesigns and rewinds


Hi friends!

Ok ok, I might have told a bit of a lie about new decks, but in my defence it's only 2 and 1 is a replacement for 1 I wasn't really happy with. The other is a better intro level for Blobby as a few new players didn't quite click with what he did. I've also taken the opportunity to rename the directions of moves to hopefully make them a little less confusing and take into consideration the rotation of the board.

But overall outside of the above this update is mostly just little tweaks to card displays, adding the much requested reload the entire puzzle feature and some tweaks of the sfx across the game.

And finally I am super grateful for all feedback from players and with your help I've been able to find a squash some more bugs (well 1 is a hopefully, because it's another I couldn't get it to happen on my side (on 3 different machines.....)).

Full Update Notes:

New Features:
  • Hold down the reset button or key (r) to fully reset a puzzle
  • New naming conventions for the directions that cats to things in e.g. "Diagonal" is now "Adjacent", "Cardinal" is now "Diagonal" and "Top" is not "Top Left"
General Updates:
  • Stopped the cats that play a sound on show also playing the normal show prrrt sound
  • Many adjustments to sound audio levels
  • Replaced the button click audio
  • Replaced the "A box for everyone" audio
  • SFX and UI audio sliders play sound when being dragged around
  • Redesigned the move direction  icons to give them a little more flavour and hopefully make them a touch more obvious
  • Updated the resolution of the cat and box sprites
Deck Updates:
  • Removed the No Snacking deck
  • Added Smack Snacks deck
  • Added Blobby deck, which acts as an introduction to Blobby
  • Blobs: Renamed to Goopy Growth
  • Leftovers: Changed 1 box to a bowl and swapped a Snobby Siamese for a Bowl Cat
Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed an issue where maximising the browser window wouldn't update the background gradient until a new scene was entered
  • Fixed an issue where you could click through the pause screen and play cards
  • Hopefully fixed an issue where cats would sometimes not be added to boxes correctly and the game would stop allowing the player to play cards
  • Fixed an issue where reverting an eaten box would sometimes make it go massive
