#bug fixes
Hey everybody!
If you've already downloaded The Last Utopi after yesterday's nighttime upload, I want to say a big thank you. This game is the first 3D first person project I've worked on in a long time. It is also my first crack at the psx style, so any interest and support means quite a lot!
In my playthrough of last night's build this morning, I discovered two bugs. One minor bug, and one major, game breaking bug.
Here's the rundown:
In the tutorial, when Eli asks you if you'd like him to repeat any of the topics he covered, one of the options says "Pausing." I was going to implement a pause menu prior to the jam, but things got so hectic that I ended up cutting that feature. So I went back and switched the "Pausing" text to say "Crouching," as that option rerouted to Eli explaining the crouch mechanic anyways.
After observing the PC monitor on the customer service desk, your inventory would no longer be accessible. That was down to switching a simple bool from "false" to "true." This was a major game breaking bug if you were to observe the monitor early on in the experience, so for anyone who downloaded last night's build, I apologize and highly encourage that you download today's update!
Those are the two fixes I immediately saw as necessary to make for today's early morning build. There are still visual updates I'd like to make to this project, so stay tuned for that!
Thank you for your interest and for playing The Last Utopi.
