Hey Everyone!
How's about that v1.3.2 release hey? 😂 But in all seriousness, I want to apologise again for the bugs that came through into production, all quite game breaking and really ruin the experience! Thanks everyone who reached out to let me know about them and help me solve some issues.
Some important things to note:
The issue occurring where the UI would disappear when you lose the game has been solved - some people have raised concern that their score will have been lost, fortunately this is not the case! All scores achieved during this build were successfully pushed to the monthly and all-time leaderboards and can be seen properly now when viewing the leaderboard or seeing a game over screen.Save/Load Fix
The other major bug was relating to loading games which had quests present on the board. There was an issue in the backend where it wasn't correctly saving the tile that they had been on so when the game went to load it would throw an error and freeze. This is now resolved and data will save correctly, however any data saved previously will still be incorrect. You will need to start a new game on this update to resolve the error. Again, I'm very sorry for this and for any data loss - it's a frustrating oversight and I can't apologise enough.
Outside of that, this release includes the following additional small tweaks:
- Minor visual improvements to Volcano, Mountain, Field, Lake and Marshland tiles
- Fixed a bug with the Volcano where it would launch boulders at the wrong tiles
- Tiles destroyed by the Volcano are now added directly to the bottom of the deck instead of adding Wastelands
- Fixed language syntax issues on description of Mountain tile
- Updated the Volcano to show a description of what it does
- Tile merges now cascade: When a merge completes that would lead to another merge, this merge takes place immediately so merges can be chained and better placed - the placement of any merge is always based around the tile placed that would cause the merge (i.e. the tile that you just placed down or that was the result of the previous merge in a chain)
- Resolved a visual bug with various tiles not rendering correctly in the deck
I hope you guys enjoy playing this fixed update! The score balance has changed a fair bit in comparison to v1.3.1 so if you have any thoughts or feedback please let me know! We're continuing to work on the game and improve it for future updates and some other exciting things that we're working on in the background.
Thanks and big love!
