Hey everyone,

In case you missed the reveal during the Games With Wings Showcase, we just confirmed a free update is coming to A Little to the Left later this year, and amongst other things it'll feature three new levels.

Expect to tidy:

• auspiciously crumpled toothpaste tube
  
• off-season glow-in-the-dark vampire teeth
  
• perfectly normal flat head screwdriver
  
• seemingly misplaced ice cream cone

Plus many more everyday items.

Well done to everyone who guessed new levels were incoming from our previous teaser!

Watch the full video here:

It's still early days for this update and as we're aiming to support many different platforms (including mobile!) simultaneously we don't yet have a time frame locked in.

Our best estimate for now is mid-year, but we'll share more about the planned date and the update's other features when we can.

Happy sorting!

Hello everyone, you may have noticed that there have been a couple of updates released on Steam within the past month: v3.1.0 and v3.1.4. These updates are focused on fixing bugs introduced from the Seeing Stars patch that were causing some friction or inconsistencies. We still have more to look at (there always is), but this covers a good chunk.


v3.1.0

• Fixed an issue where clicking on objects in the DLC2 Boss while the drawer was closing would cause the Gems phase to be skipped, going straight to the next objects puzzle phase, leading to a blocker state where the level would not trigger completion upon solving all three objects puzzle phases
  
• Picked up Gems in the DLC2 Boss will no longer appear behind other Gems
  
• The Heart Robot in DLC2 Robots level could have Hearts placed down near its knees if the Robot had not first had its state changed, now Hearts can only be placed in the open chest cavity.
  
• Hearts container for Heart Robot in DLC2 Robots level can no longer become misaligned if the Robot was moved partially offscreen while the chest cavity was open.
  
• Objects are now unable to be picked up while a drawer is transitioning state. This behaviour could lead to a condition where objects could become stuck in a partially non-interactive state and unable detect targets.
  
• Objects can no longer be pulled out of a closed drawer if very close to the edge (such as in the DLC2 Materials Drawer level), which could lead to objects becoming lost out of play.
  
• When holding an object, drawer in DLC2 Combs level now only automatically opens on handle hover
  
• Selecting the “Play” button on the Title Screen will now resume play from last unlocked level (or last played level if New Game+) when main Campaign is selected.

• Improved action when clicking the toggle buttons in the Lamp level when Tap to Hold setting is active.
  
• Hacky Sack in the DLC2 Balls level now reliably collapses when hitting the floor, and will no longer become inadvertently rotated if had collided with another ball.
  
• Objects in the Buttons level, and associated sorting Daily Tidy level, now exhibit shadows.
  
• Radial Dance Party will now progress more reliably from Cat Toys and Soup Cans phases
  
• Improved compatibility of Quick Select functions in Radial Dance Party
  
• Cacti in DLC2 Cacti level can no longer get stuck floating in the air

• Added detail of interaction points on the Compass and retractable Protractor in DLC2 Math Set hints
  
• Increased the size of the interaction point on the retractable Protractor in DLC2 Math Set to be a bit more obvious, and updated level icon to match
  
• Icons on the computer in the Desktop Computer level will now detect placement if another previously occupying icon is moved out of the way
  
• Art for double-barrelled and banded Whistles in the DLC2 Whistles puzzle updated for clarity
  
• Hints for DLC2 Whistles level updated to clarity
  
• Background removed in DLC2 Whistles level to reduce visual noise
  
• Restored missing collision SFX for Whistles in DLC2 Whistles level
  
• Changed the Cucumbers to Celery in DLC2 Leftovers level to avoid confusion whether cucumber should be classified as fruit or vegetable
  
• DLC2 Leftovers column-oriented solutions now allow gaps between columns
  
• Corrected the “Levels” solution in DLC2 Leftovers to enforce order of least-to-most contents (or vice-versa) across the crosswise axis, as intended by design
  
• “Keeping Count” and “Top Heavy Slice” achievements are now achievable if the level was Reset
