Hello all!
Welcome to update 0.9.3! This update introduces some new content as well as physics changes and some bug fixes:
- New Cat - Sphynx
- New Track - Haunted Mansion. Win at the 'Wild West' track to unlock this one!
- Ran an art pass for the Wild West track. The track should feel more populated now.
- Suburbs - Edited AI pathing so that AI cats do not cut the final corner
- Suburbs - Changed location of boost pads
- Added a new starting boost feature. If you achieve the correct RPM when revving your cat before the race starts, you will gain a boost of speed as the race begins!
- Fixed text error when choosing a locked track
- Further altered drift physics so that it is harder to spin out. Cats should also now be more stable when accelerating in a straight line. Based on player feedback.
- Reduced volume of skidding sfx. Based on player feedback
- Removed AI catch-up on 'Easy' difficulty. This should stop AI cats from rocketing into first place as soon as the race starts
- Further reduced AI speed on 'Easy' difficulty
- Increased base gravity to help with drifting difficulties
- Ran an AI pathing sweep due to gravity change
- Moved the turbo pads located on the Big City starting straight
- Fixed an issue with the main menu UI displaying incorrectly on screens using 21:9 ratios
- Part of the above fix included changing some of the UI on the main menu
- Nerfed leading AI skill on Medium difficulty. It should now be easier to catch up to the leading cats in a race on this difficulty
- Fixed bug affecting the 'Change Nickname' button. The window to change nickname should now appear after the button is pressed, instead of after leaving the settings menu.
