macOS Support & 1.2 Update
Please Fix The Road News — November 19, 2023
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
macOS
Please Fix The Road was originally released for Windows and Linux and was quickly Steam Deck Verified (some say that our Lord Gabe Newell himself verified my game, but that's just a theory). Today, I am completing the platform collection and adding macOS support (both old Intel and new Apple silicon).
Update 1.2
I am currently working to deliver you the Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation ports of the game. I really wanted to fix all of the bugs I've discovered for these versions and bring these changes to PC as well. The game should perform even better.
- Updated the Unity engine to the latest LTS version
- Performance improvements for water, physics, and UI (you can thank the Switch port)
- Faster closing of the game
- New particles and developer logo in the intro sequence
- Bugfix: Sometimes, the bottom UI doesn't show up mid-tutorial
- Bugfix: Rare crashes on less powerful machines or during heavy lag
- Bugfix: Rare animation bugs on less powerful machines or during heavy lag
- Bugfix: It was possible to bug out the undo/redo feature with specific actions
- Bugfix: Missing script errors in the log file
- Bugfix: During very long play sessions, some level switch animations glitched a bit
- Bugfix: Tile icons at the bottom UI are sometimes off-center
Arrghh!
On the game launch date, I released a special unlicensed version of the game on torrents as a sign of good faith to my "unpaid clients". From now on, you can enable this mode by adding a super-secret "pirate" command-line argument ːsteamhappyː
