Patch Notes / Known Issues / Bug Reporting

[Twoflower]

This thread is where you can report any issues you have with either the full game or the demo. Please be aware some issues are native to our game engine and are beyond our ability to fix -- these SHOULD be edge cases that only affect a small number of users, however. Where possible, we'll fix what we can!

Known issues...

• When using the SKIP button, sometimes music tracks don't play when it changes.

Version 1.6 released September 28th includes...

• Fixed SteamDeck support. Like, MORE fixed.
  
• Fixed Master Thief achievement. Like, ULTIMATELY fixed. If you've finished all the capers and still missing it, start a new playthrough and it'll auto-grant to you.
  
• Fixed typos.

Previous patch notes cleared out since they were getting lengthy and no longer applicable.

Hey so I just bought the game and I love what I've seen so far - I haven't gotten that far though and I noticed what i *think* is an issue? So you go through and pick pronouns for Penny and theyre referred to as (if you pick he/him) "mr x" and even in the cool little introduction card as "mister steal your stuff" but when you get the options on that page the second option says i'm the voice in *her* head. So that might be an issue? Or are pronouns just for the alias and Penny is actually normally she/her?

Edit: Okay I'm at the flashback where Penny meets Gib and he says "the human girl should move back from the ledge" just so you know if this isn't a design choice.

Edit: Just got to the flash back where Penny talks about parents - mom says "take care of her for me"

Again all of this is chill if its the design choice, but if not I figured you'd want to know.

[Twoflower]

Yeah, these are definitely bugs. I'll address them in a patch -- it's NEVER my intention to misgender Penny at any point. Thank you so much for reporting this!

Got a crash error in the Candy From a Baby plotline, crash log referenced candy_baby line 1440 and gave the error "face_middle is undefined"

Great report! The line number and details help a bunch. I'll slate this to go out with the next patch.

Meanwhile, can you click "Ignore" and continue the caper, or are you just deadlocked?

[CheeseLikeSubstance]

Happy to help! I was able to continue after reloading the game and hitting ignore at the same point when I got the same error.

Also encountered a pronoun mismatch, in Hate4000's storyline you have the line "But leaving /his/ hideout more often is a positive step," should be 'their' presumably.

One more bug unless I'm missing something: I didn't get the "Master Thief" achievement despite having them for all the individual capers

There was a bug which prevented "Long Live the King" from unlocking, which in turn prevented "Master Thief." I patched it so it'll auto-grant Long Live the King when you start the game, but for Master Thief to grant you'll need to re-play any normal caper first.

[Moral Wiz]

Huuuh. I've got Long Live The King... but Master Thief didn't trigger. And yes, I've gotten every other achievement; played through to the end (Awesome game BTW!)

[Moral Wiz]

Huuuh.

Well, I got it. I'm not sure what happened there. I played through multiple normal capers after getting Long Live The King: I hadn't done Farsight's timeline yet, so I didn't want to skip them. And I had Long Live The King trigger, so I thought I was good. But that hadn't triggered Master Thief.

But I just booted up the game again, ran through a caper... and this time it triggered? It was the same one I did after getting King in Yellow: Monumental Proportions. I'm confused, but... hey, just in case this is a thing, I figure I should share.

[Twoflower]

Yep, that's working, then. Good to know.

It won't be an issue moving forward now that it's fixed -- game should do what it was meant to do for anyone playing now on.

Found a potential bug: if you skip text, sometimes the music just cuts out and doesn't play again until you restart the game.

I don't know what exactly causes this issue, just that I've run into it when I'm skipping text by pressing the CTRL key. Hope that helps.

[Twoflower]

Thanks, I'll investigate. This may end up being an engine issue I can't fix but hopefully not.

edit, yea look like it happens with all the marks you talk to .

[Twoflower]

Thanks! I'll get the patch for this rolled out soon.

You can click Ignore anytime this pops up for now.

found a visual bug where doctor mayhem doesn't have his arms when you have a casual fling with him in the first caper and romance him in the second.

dialogue the bug appears on is "Oh! Well. Step into my office, then. Show me where it hurts."
