Jumping Jax Patch Notes — December 22, 2020
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello everyone, Sabien from Caos Creations here.
I wanted to apologize to everyone for my lack of patience when creating the 1.0.2 release. I have been working on Caos Creations' other game for a couple weeks and haven't been progressing as fast as I would like, so I got antsy.
Our commitment to our players
So, my commitment to everyone playing this game so far:
- I am instating a monthly release schedule. Starting on January 31st, we will be releasing updates MONTHLY. If there are small fixes we have done we will set them out there. If we aren't 100% confident in the changes, we will put them on a beta branch and release them the following month.
- I am gathering a Testing/QA team so I can prevent any catastrophic failures in the future. If you're interested in working with us, join our discord, I will paste the link below.
- I will be keeping an up to date roadmap. Everyone can be involved in the progress of Jumping Jax! More on this later
- If you ever have any questions, I am beyond happy to answer them. Comment on this post, create a forum discussion, or join the discord <3
Public Roadmap
The Caos Creations team uses GitHub for all of our code. All of our code is open source, as well as our roadmaps.
You can find them by either:
- going to the Jumping Jax repository, clicking on "Projects" and then "Alpha Release".
- clicking here
If you want to give feedback, or request a feature, please either:
- create a discussion post here
- ask in the Discord
1.0.3 Patch Notes
Features
- We have add FIRST PERSON GHOSTS! Watch other players complete levels to see how they did it.
- Added "Delete Data" button in Misc Options, that allows you to clear your level saves if they get out of sync with the Steam leaderboards
Bug Fixes
- Updated Physics timestep, you should notice less stutter on high framerates. This is a temporary fix for the large physics rework coming up!
- Ghost runs and leaderboard entries should ALWAYS be added to the leaderboard, unless Steam isn't responding and the request times out (I can't solve this issue on my end, sadly)
- Ghost is now properly toggling in the Misc Options
- Added a metric ton of debug logging. If you run into a bug I can much more easily diagnose it now.
- Added a ton of extraneous error checking to make sure you never hit an error! There's... probably still more to be done, sadly
- Added an explanation for ghosts in the Hop 1 tutorial text
