Thanks for this! The game is awesome, I really loved it. BTW are there any plans on content updates in the future?
Shirow May 2, 2018 @ 10:50am 
so the lever and crank bug in the toy dungeon is also solved? The rooms with the spikes and the lever that lower them, without opening the door?

"Many fixes to level layouts and maps that were previously generating impossible rooms"

Probably.

Just installed this update now having issues with the lever in dungeons not opening doors. Unplayable at the moment for me unfortunately. Any way to reset to the previous version?

I am stuck too. The dungeons are real hard when you can't open the doors... :D

I had the same issue. A lot of switches weren't doing what they were supposed to. I'm wondering if the patch messed up my game in progress. At least I was able to offer the pendant from my last victory against mormo and get a permanent time extension for the first time, so the run wasn't a total bust. AND I managed to defeat Mormo with no anchors destroyed, so that's another plus. Here's hoping the next run works better.
Gatitowo May 2, 2018 @ 1:14pm 
Switches not working here either, and killing enemies won't open doors either, so im stuck. Hope it get fixed.
onebitbeyond  [developer] May 2, 2018 @ 1:18pm 
Can someone show a screenshot of a room where the switch doesn't work?
onebitbeyond  [developer] May 2, 2018 @ 1:32pm 
Yep, I can see that there is a bug in the switch code. I will have to revert this version for the moment.
onebitbeyond  [developer] May 2, 2018 @ 3:29pm 
OK, I updated a fix for Windows (Mac & Linux will be tomorrow as they take hours to build).

EDIT: if you still have trouble, use the pre-release branch to revert to the previous safe version.
