• Added a discard system for getting rid of items that are no longer needed. For example, the king key can be discarded after opening all the king doors and the radio can be discarded after solving the puzzle.
  
• Added a singleplayer option that will allow the game to be played offline without an internet connection.
  
• Added the option to choose between starting a private and public lobby when hosting a game.
  
• Added a new menu for finding public lobbies that have available space and have not started yet.
  
• Added the ability for the host of a lobby to kick other players.
  
• Items will now be retrieved from players who disconnect midgame and store them into the item box.
  
• Ammo will now automatically split into stacks of 20 when storing it into the item box, allowing players to share ammo amongst one another.
  
• Made it so that a key will no longer spawn if there isn't any doors for it to open.
  
• Pause screen will now display the list of players in-game.
  
• Fusebox for the elevator will now be highlighted.
  
• Added new notification if test tube resets back to default when mixing chemicals.
  
• Added new notification for when wrong valve handle is used in the greenhouse.
  
• Made the colour of the blue valve more distinct to avoid confusion with the green valve.
  
• Fixed issues with French translation for ammunition not displaying the amount.

I want to continue to work on adding more content to the game, but if you run into any issues with the latest update let me know and I'll make it my priority to fix it first. I have some cool ideas planned for this game which I'll posting more about in the near future!

Added the option for the host of a lobby to change the size of the map. This will allow newer players the chance to learn puzzles/game mechanics in a much smaller environment before delving into the full-scale manor.

Since the large map is technically still the main game, most achievements are disabled for small and medium map sizes. Only 'Mastermind' and 'Runaway' will still be obtainable. This is only temporary as I do plan to add more achievements in the future.

The number of zombies and resources will also change depending on the size of the map:

Small Map

• 1 Floor (Around 40 rooms)
  
• 30 Enemies (1 special enemy type)
  
• 3 Ammo boxes per weapon
  
• 4 Puzzles

Medium Map

• 2 Floors (Around 65 rooms)
  
• 40 Enemies (2 special enemy types)
  
• 4 Ammo boxes per weapon
  
• 8 Puzzles

Large Map

• 3 Floors (Around 80 rooms)
  
• 50 Enemies (3 special enemy types)
  
• 5 Ammo boxes per weapon
  
• 12 puzzles

I also added an objective bar to the inventory screen that shows which escape route has spawned and the player's progress toward accessing it.

I'll be working on implementing a discard system, as well as a few other additions that were suggested. If you have any feedback always be sure to let me know in the Steam Discussions board, thanks!

Other Changes

• Made the numbers for morse code a bit slower and easier to hear
  
• Fixed issue where players would fall out of the map and get kicked from the server. In the rare case that it does happen again I've made it teleport players back to spawn instead.

This new weapon is unlike any other, and much more powerful than the rest. Using explosive ammunition you can instantly kill any enemy in the game with only a single shot, the blast radius of the explosion also allows you to down multiple enemies simultaneously. However, the biggest advantage of this new weapon that truly sets it apart from the rest is the ability to temporarily stun the ghost that lurks throughout the manor. This will disable her for 60 seconds before she respawns back at her cell.

The flare gun is only available for Standard/Casual difficulty, you can find it inside the room marked with a skull on the door. Ammo for this weapon is extremely scarce, 10 rounds for Casual and 5 for Standard. It is up to player to decide on the most efficient way of utilizing these bullets.

Added a few achievements to reward players who managed to beat the game, as well as a few other challenges. I plan to add more in the future, but for now the 10 achievements are as follows:

• Resident: Finish the game on Casual difficulty or higher.
  
• Escapee: Finish the game on Standard difficulty or higher.
  
• Survivor: Finish the game on Hardcore difficulty or higher.
  
• Champion: Finish the game on Nightmare difficulty.
  
• Perfectionist: Achieve an S+ ranking on Nightmare difficulty.
  
• Executioner: Kill all monsters in the manor.
  
• Speedrunner: Beat the game in under 1 hour.
  
• Untouchable: Beat the game without using heals or revives.
  
• Mastermind: Complete all puzzles. (This requires multiple playthroughs as the puzzles are randomized)
  
• Runaway: Escape using every route. (This requires multiple playthroughs as the escape route is randomized)

• Instructions for the generator puzzle has now been translated for all languages.
  
• Hint above generator has been removed, it is now included in the instructions.
  
• Due to the addition of the flare gun, I've reset the speed of the ghost for Casual.

• Fixed collider in one of the rooms that made the keypad inaccessible.
  
• Fixed collider in one of the kitchen rooms where bullets couldn't pass through.
  
• Fixed collider for the staircases where bullets couldn't pass through.
  
• Fixed navmesh for the staircases that should prevent enemies from getting stuck.
  
• Fixed missing ceiling texture in the one of the corridors.
  
• Fixed inventory icon for rifle ammo being affected by quality settings.

• Crosses are now set to 10 for Casual, but will remain at 5 for Standard.
  
• Disabled player collision for now, I plan on making it optionable in the future.
  
• Added note for the generator puzzle that will help players to solve it. For now this is only available in English, but I will look into translating it for other languages.
  
• Textures for notes and cards will no longer be affected by quality settings.
  
• Increased the size of the photo for the painting puzzle to make it easier to see.
  
• Added notification when all levers are pulled for the gate.
  
• Added notification when all fuses are placed for the elevator.
  
• Fixed bug where dead players could still take damage.

I'm currently working on adding a special weapon that will temporarily stun the ghost, as well as Steam Achievements to reward players who managed to complete the game.

Redesigned the puzzles to make them more in-depth. Previously, solving puzzles would always reward players with an escape item. However in the newest update, puzzles can now reward players with items used to solve other puzzles in the manor. This makes the game much more similar to an escape room. Due to this change I've limited the number of escape routes back to 1 and had to add some extra steps to some of the puzzles:

• Firing range button is now missing, players will have to find and place the button themselves in order to activate the targets.
  
• Sequence puzzle will now spawn with a cover over it, players will have to find a screwdriver to remove said cover.
  
• Doll room will now be barricaded by wooden boards, players must look for a hammer to remove them.
  
• Generator room now requires an orange keycard to open.
  
• Bar room now requires a blue keycard to open.
  
• Card puzzle will now only spawn 3 of the 4 cards, players will have to figure out the last digit of the code themselves.

Added self-revives, allowing players to automatically revive themselves when they die with a cross in their inventory. I added this as a way to make the game easier for people playing solo, although it does work for multiplayer too. If you self-revive, you get to keep all the items in your inventory, otherwise all of your items will be sent to the storage box. (Only available for Standard and Casual).

• Added Ghost to Casual mode, but at a much slower speed and deals less damage.
  
• Added warning for when players on different versions try to connect to each other. This will only work for version 0.2.1 and above.
  
• Added warning for when players fail to connect to the Steam Network.

• Fixed curtains disappearing after solving the piano puzzle.
  
• Fixed painting puzzle occasionally spawning the wrong item.
  
• Fixed gate for the boat escape clipping through the ground when spawning on the bottom floor.
  
• Fixed some of the item descriptions not displaying for players with unmodified settings files.
  
• Fixed collision for one of the chairs in the surveillance room.

The newest update of Enigma Manor is here and completely changes the way the game is played. The size of the manor has been expanded, now consisting of multiple floors. The map will now include 12 puzzles rather than 4, as well as multiple escape routes. This will allow players to experience much more of the content that's included in the game without having to replay the game too many times. Based on feedback I've also added revives for multiplayer and made lots of improvements to optimization.

• Added 20 new rooms to the manor, greatly increasing the map size.
  
• Added revives for multiplayer (only available for Standard and Casual mode), you will need to find a cross to use on a player's tombstone, However, just like other resources these are limited.
  
• Added 2 more storage boxes to the map due to the much larger size, these are evenly spaced out to allow for easier access.
  
• The manor now consists of three different floors.
  
• Map will now include 12 puzzles and all 3 escape routes.
  
• Put a warning for players who have their resolution set to high.
  
• Removed SteamAudio from the game as it was having a big impact on performance.
  
• Game Over screen will now display stats, just like the Results screen.
  
• Players will now take less damage on Casual mode.
  
• Enemies on Hardcore and Nightmare will now do increased damage again.
  
• Hardcore and Nightmare mode will now spawn less resources, which includes less weapons, ammo, and heals.
  
• Ghost is now more transparent and will spawn after 60 seconds for Nightmare mode.
  
• Syringes will now heal 100% of player's health rather than 50%.
  
• Half of the enemies will now spawn in unlocked rooms.
  
• Doll puzzle timer is now set to 3 minutes rather than 1 minute.
  
• Radios for the Morse Code and Piano puzzle will no longer play audio unless examined.
  
• Reduced the audio range for most of the sound effects.
  
• Fixed bug where players could interact with objects as they were dying.
  
• Fixed bug where resurrected players were not able to use items.
  
• Fixed issue with the game over and result screen being off center for certain resolutions.

Hope you guys enjoy the new update! As always, if you have any feedback or suggestions of things you would like to see added please let me know in the Steam Discussions board. Thanks.

• Texture quality will now default to "Medium" for new players that don't already have a save file.

If anyone is having performance issues please let me know so I can fix it, I want to make sure this game is playable for everyone!
