The Halloween Event lasts from midnight before Friday the 13th until midnight after Halloween, UTC. During this time, compete for the fastest time possible. Rewards will be granted to players for various criteria!

• 2023 Halloween Champion - Title awarded to first place
  
• 2023 Halloween Top 10 - Title awarded to all top ten players
  
• Golden Pumpkin - Badge awarded to the players in the top 5%
  
• Silver Pumpkin - Badge awarded to the players in the top 25%
  
• Pumpkin - Bade awarded to all participants
  
• One additional hidden reward will be granted to an unlucky player!

An update is coming very soon which will add two types of cosmetic unlockable items to the game: titles and badges. Titles will appear under your name on leaderboards, and badges will appear next to your name. You will be able to select one active badge and one active title at a time in your profile. I plan on dropping some titles for the existing player base, given based on their current stats.

This event adds the capability for me to create events, but that doesn't mean an event is immediately playable. The first event, Halloween 2023, will begin on Friday, October 13, and end November 1.

• Admin can create events, specifying event information, event colors, a time range, and a pack
  
• Admin can create rules that drive event rewards. More on rewards below. For example, a rule might state that the top 10% of scores get a special badge.
  
• An upcoming or active event will show on the main menu under News. It will also say how long until the event starts/ends.
  
• The active event will display at the very top of the Official tab in the play menu. It will also be searchable like a normal pack.
  
• Reworked the sidebar on the main menu. It allows the possibility of not having any news and hiding the news section. It hides the messages section if there are no messages for your user. It also hides the event section if there are no events active or in the future.
  
• Allow the sidebar on the main menu to scroll if there are too many items on it to fit on the page
  
• After an event ends, you will get a message on the main menu about the rewards you earned

• When you open your profile, show the list of your badges and titles. You can pick a badge, and it'll show an icon on your leaderboard entries. You can also pick a title, and it'll show text on your leaderboard entries.
  
• Badges and titles have an associated rarity value, which can be used in the future in creative ways.

• Instead of the fullscreen option using borderless windowed fullscreen, it will now use exclusive fullscreen. This will improve framerate and response time, allowing a higher degree of control.
  
• Fixed the starry background lagging behind the player during teleportation, resetting the level, and switching to the win screen
  
• Sound effects can now play at the same time, so each new sound doesn't cut off the old one. Try picking up a ton of keys quickly to see the difference!

• Fixed the leaderboard going off-screen in ultrawide
  
• Fixed the report feature on the backend, so I can once again see what packs you're reporting
  
• Fixed a bug where using the escape button to close pack list menu would cause the back button in a different scene to take you back to the pack list menu
  
• Fixed inconsistency with Main Menu vs Menu, making it Main Menu everywhere
  
• Middle mouse button and right click will no longer trigger sound effects on clickable UI elements
  
• Fixed jerky scaling effects on UI elements when hovering over them and hovering away before the animation is done

These system improvements will allow me more flexibility for adding features in the future, such as showing the date of a score in the leaderboards.

• Store data on the date and time packs are uploaded
  
• Store data on the date and time scores are submitted

This update primarily focuses on the pack editor, with some miscellaneous fixes and improvements elsewhere too.

• Pick ANY color for your walls now, with a color picker tool
  
• The fill tool now works instantly
  
• Added an option to disable colored walls in the settings. Turning this on will cause all walls to appear light gray.
  
• All your packs in the editor menu will sort by most recently edited, so you don't have to scroll to the bottom anymore
  
• Loading and resetting packs is now 15-20 times faster. This is mostly noticeable on packs with lots of spikes, keys, goals, and portals.

• Link lines in the editor now have transparency so it's easier to see when they overlap each other
  
• If you try to place two links on the same two endpoints, it will ignore one
  
• Links that aren't valid will be removed when saving the level
  
• Improvements to the UI in the pack overview editor
  
• Making a new pack will jump straight into the editor

• Changing tools while creating a link will clear the link in progress instead of creating a bad link
  
• Quickly unpausing and pausing will no longer put you in a weird half-paused state
  
• Tooltips should no longer get stuck on the screen
  
• Paging left or right too quickly in the search area will no longer let you page past the last page or down to page zero
  
• The page left button in the search area will no longer flash and then disappear when opening the community tab for the first time
  
• Pressing escape from the win screen will now take you back to the pack on the play menu instead of going back to the main menu

These are upgrades that make my life easier but users won't recognize them.

• New pack file format: after launching the game for the first time, your local packs will all be converted to the new format. It uses a single JSON file for the entire pack rather than a folder with separate files for each level. Changing the file format was necessary for adding color palettes, so I went all out on the file format upgrade while I had the opportunity.
  
• Updated the level editor scenes to use my scene manager system for passing data around when switching screens
  
• Modernized a large percentage of my codebase to centralize major pieces of functionality and to make it easier to develop new features
  
• News banner and message are only loaded once when you launch the game instead of every time you go back to the main menu

After update 2.5, ultrawide monitors were unable to play because the button was off-screen. Before that, the experience for ultrawide wasn't great. Now, ultrawide monitors should have an equally awesome experience as 16:9 monitors.

Impossible packs used to be impossible. Now they're a walk in the park for top players. People consistently put out packs much harder than the official impossible packs, so I added two new difficulties: Solar and Black Hole.

Solar difficulty should be beatable by any of the top players with lots of dedication, whereas Black Hole is reserved for the packs so hard that I would never have a chance. I added two new Steam achievements unlocked by beating each of these difficulties.

This update adds some enhancements for pack searching and other miscellaneous improvements.

• Added a link to the uploader's profile next to their name in the pack selection screen
  
• Added a button to clear search filters in the pack search tab
  
• Updated the main menu sidebar to have a more aesthetic layout
  
• Pack descriptions will no longer default to "Add a description", because half of the packs uploaded had "Add a description" as their description!
  
• Added the escape hotkey to navigate back in the overall leaderboards and cosmetics menus
  
• Fixed the buttons in the title bars sometime acting funky
  
• Fixed the spawn particles not going away immediately when resetting a pack

This patch adds a fix and a few quality of life improvements.

• Fixed a bug where you can click "Browse" in a user's profile before it finishes loading and it'll take you to the search tab with no filters selected.
  
• Enhanced the profile screen to show a cleaner placeholder box while the data is loading instead of the awkward "No world records" and "? packs played"
  
• Added the escape hotkey to navigate back on all screens with a back button, including the win screen, pack selection screen, profile, and leaderboards.
  
• Added the escape hotkey on the tutorial to open the "are you sure you want to skip the tutorial" popup
  
• In the level editor, aligned the Clear and Test buttons to the left to match the shape and size of the block selection buttons

This is a hotfix for the most important issues that arose since update 2.4. Here's a full list of the changes:

• (Existing bug) Fixed an issue where the mouse wouldn't be visible on the win screen sometimes
  
• (Existing bug) Fixed a visual bug where one layer of the starry background appeared above the trail
  
• Fixed a visual bug where the trail appeared above the player in the level tester
  
• Improvement to pack loading in the pack selection menu. It'll no longer flash with an empty overview box while it loads for the first time.
  
• Resetting the pack now correctly hides the split timer from your previous run
  
• Fixed the UI on the pack upload screen for resolutions other than 16:9
  
• Switching from the overall leaderboards to player profiles and back now works
  
• Resolution dropdown doesn't contain duplicates anymore for the different framerate options

Major Changes:

• Recreated the user interface for all screens. Some screens are similar to the existing screens.
  
• Created a tooltip system to provide context on buttons which might be confusing. Used heavily in the level editor.
  
• Removed the "Search" tab and the "Unplayed" tab. Combined that together with the community tab.
  
• Added a "Only show unplayed" criteria to the pack search
  
• Added pagination to the pack search so you can page through the results instead of only seeing 50.
  
• Added a setting for requiring Ctrl+R to reset the pack instead of just R
  
• All menu scenes have a title bar on them with the name of the screen and the standard controls, like "Main Menu", "Back", "Upload", etc.
  
• Improved system for switching scenes, where it'll remember information about the scene. For example, you can play a pack, look at the leaderboards, and when you return to the pack selection menu, it'll remember what tab you're on, your search criteria, and the pack you had selected.
  
• Created a common style of popup that's used throughout the game
  
• Removed lives
  
• Graphical improvements, including sharper tiles in the game and better looking tiles in the level editor.
  
• New click and hover sounds
  
• New animation system used primarily for button hovering

Minor Changes, more Details, and Bugfixes:

• The settings screen shares a starry background with the rest of the menu screens
  
• Better style slider control for the settings screen
  
• Made the resolution and fullscreen settings more intuitive
  
• Fixed the bug that caused glitched times on the leaderboard
  
• Prevented empty pack names from being uploaded
  
• Fix an issue with the parallax background not tiling properly and having a jarring edge
  
• Fix a subtle flashing effect when resetting a level or pack
  
• Prevent rich text in the pack name field. This will probably be added back later in some capacity.
  
• Fixed issue where the tutorial wouldn't open automatically for new players
  
• Fixed issue with all leaderboard placement achievements being given even if the user didn't meet the placement requirements
  
• Fixed issue where links wouldn't be hidden in the level editor after switching from the link tool to a color directly
  
• Added a new fan-made skin Emerald
  
• Made the description on packs scrollable, allowing for longer descriptions without clipping
  
• Fixed tied entries on the leaderboards so they will show as getting the same placement. If two people get 10th place, the next will be 12th place.
  
• Cool new splash screen for the game's startup. Only really visible if it takes a few seconds to connect to the server.
