Found a bug? Let us know!
Hey everyone, I wanted to create and pin a thread specifically for bug reports.

PLEASE only post in this if you're reporting a bug that you don't see reported yet. Be sure to give a quick scan at the other posts just to see if it's already covered. (I know dupes are inevitable, we just want to minimize them as much as we can).

Please use this format for reporting bugs:

What happens?:
A quick description, i.e. "Crash when jumping off Santa in Blizzard of Balls."

How often does it happen?:
You can ballpark it, just give us an idea. All the time, some of the time, once?

What are the steps to reproduce it?:
Give us the best description of how to reproduce it that you can; this is HUGELY helpful, so more detail is always better. Particularly if you're doing something out side of "normal" gameplay, like trying to speedrun the game for example, knowing the steps you took goes a really long way towards helping us reproduce and diagnose these.

Do you have a screenshot or video you could link?:
This isn't necessary by any means, but if you want to go above and beyond in helping us diagnose things, I can't even begin to tell you how useful video of the bug happening is. :)

We're going to monitor this thread from now until we get another patch out, at which point if this is working, I'll put up another thread to collect any new/regressed issues so people have a place to report them.

(Provided this works -- if things get too unwieldy here we'll probably move over to using a public Trello board, but we'll see how it goes.)

For the record, the High Framerate Issues are fixed in the most recent hotpatch, so if you had a crash while sledding on Santa, or walljumping was acting very strangely, or you were having trouble with any of the bosses seeming bizarrely way too hard? Try them now, that was all connected to the same thing.

I think B.S. Man and Mike's idle animations don't work; I've not seen them.

Also, I think Mike's ability to see secret blocks is glitched somehow? In the original, the blocks would become photonegative, but now they barely highlight at all, and it makes some of them virtually undetectable (like the ones from Beat It and Eat It which hide B.S. Man. The only reason I got him was because I played the original game and remembered where he was).

You can't change characters while on a ladder.

Sometimes, B.S. Man's fire animation doesn't work if he's standing still or has just started to walk forward.

Mike's animation from the first game where he attacks while crouching doesn't work; it seems overridden by the default attack animation where he is standing still.

game just outright actsup (screen freezes for about 5 seconds,) whenever a power up is activated (smdc, glitch gremlin etc) by freezes I mean in a way that is obviously not intended . Whenever you enter a boss arena the game also freezes for the same amount of time.
It's not necessary to have both nagi and on screen button prompts during the tutorial..not sure what the decision behind this was. Nagi also dies when you activate SMDC instead of you manually choosing to kill her at the end to get the achievement.. the tutorial level design is just ..not good.
I beat buttholevania. Other than freezing it was great.

Other than that, it's ok.I will look to see if there is anything on my part causing this..but that's doubtful.

Obviously, if it's going to continue to have these issues within the next 12 days I will be requesting a refund, sad to say :(

I tried Blizzard of Balls again and still got stuck at the end of the Santa section. My current Content Build ID is 5765747. I don't know if that version has the hotfix or not.

In the Dungeons & D!ckholes stage in the first AVGN game, the entire row of bubbles (on the same horizontal space where you find Sh!tpickle) do not fully come up. Right as they are about to rise further, they disappear and continue to cycle that way, leading for the player to walk across without having to worry about getting hit by them.

This happens pretty much all the time. They never fully rise to be able to hit the Nerd in that specific location. I forget if it happens in other parts of the level too (I don't think so?) but I may be wrong.

Game breaking softlock!: got all of the pieces, quit the game, came back and there is no way past!

Bug: got teleported into the corner by jumping in the top right teleporter and getting hit before i did (possibly hitting the top trigger to spawn me under?)

There’s an audio issue talked about here:

https://steamcommunity.com/app/1162960/discussions/0/2997669078626208398/

https://steamcommunity.com/app/1162960/discussions/0/2997669078626208398/#c2997669078626659682

Or did it get fixed already?
(Patch notes said “Various minor bug fixes” and didn’t specify the audio.)

Can't play with my PS4 controller on a Mac. The game doesn't recognize the controller at all.
It worked just fine on the demo.

Thanks guys! We're keeping track of these for an upcoming patch (and I'm sure there'll be some more after that, such is the nature of the beast but eh you guys know the drill. <3)

Note that it'll take us a bit to gather everything together, run it through QA, etc. but we're working through 'em at a good clip so I expect we'll have some news for everyone pretty soon.

I've got all the upgrades in part II but didn't get the achievement.
I died as soon as i got the Uber scope, maybe it has something to do with that. But i have the achievement for the scope.
MightySunbro Nov 4, 2020 @ 3:41pm 
Same here about achievements. Got all the upgrades in AVGN 2 -- didn't get the achievement for getting all the upgrades. And I'm pretty sure achievement for finding all the future nerds in AVGN 1 is bugged too because I've visited every possible future nerd location and got nothing.

Enemies don't have a visual indicator they've been shot?

I don't know if this was an artistic decision or not but it definitely doesn't feel intended, I have a gif that shows it, the damage flash is just.. gone? If this was intentional is there a chance it could make a return?

EDIT: This seems to have been a frame rate related issue, my bad. It seems to have fixed itself and my only idea is that the game is properly displaying at 60fps and wasn't before? I used force v-sync with nvidia's control panel because steam's fps counter showed a frame rate in the thousands, and the game was suffering from screen tearing.

For what it's worth I'm running on a 75 hertz monitor. I'll post if I can figure out whether or not it was a frame rate issue for certain (if that's helpfuil).
