Hey folks! It's been a little while but thank you for everyone who's gotten the game! I've had a really fun
time developing it and like I said, will continue to. Just not as frequently. Before I start talking about
nonsense here's the patch notes for this update:
-Fixed issue with achievements not granting after chapter complete
-Fixed issue with graphics settings not saving between sesssions
-Made some sound effects less brutal on the ears
-Fixed some backend stuff that (should) make the game run better
-Small changes to how the player interacts with sounds
-Small environment changes.
I'm planning on sometime in the near future putting out another map for the game and finish polishing it
before I leave the projects main updates. But I hope you all have enjoyed your time playing The Fire!
Also...
There might be another game in the franchise in the works to look out for.
So stay tuned ;).
