Hello everyone!
One month anniversary
Today Hypogea turns a month old! - Is what I would say if I had made this event in time... Still, I really wanted to express how thankful I am to see so many people playing and enjoying the game, and I can't express how glad I am to see the reception it has had. Thank you all so much.
Updates round-up
As you might have noticed, a lot of patches and hotfixes have been pushed since the game launched, without much details about their contents, so here's a non-exhaustive list of some of the fixes that have been done since release:
Fixed a had blocker that got you stuck after skipping the cutscenes when returning from level 4
Fixed many potential softlocks in levels 2, 3, 4 and 5
Fixed some of the sequence triggers in Chapter 6 which were triggering too early and making said chapter too hard
Fixed some sounds not being assigned to the proper audio channel (especially a certain explosion sound that bypassed the game's volume setting, sorry about that!)
Fixed an issue with the 'Raising the bar' achievement that made it too easy to get
Reworked how the 'Collect-a-thon' and 'Recollector' achievements are triggered to make them more reliable
Reworked some of the player character animation transitions and code to improve overall navigation and avoid some movements triggering when they shouldn't
Many additional level design tweaks & improvements
Added tutorials for switching the direction of the minecart when going in the 'wrong' direction
Added a tutorial on how to rotate the camera when interacting with the first recollection
Added cloud saves
Added Simplified Chinese localization
There were lots of other smaller tweaks and fixes but those are the main ones.
Hypogea Original Soundtrack
To celebrate Hypogea's (late) one-month birthday, the game's soundtrack is now available on Youtube!
You can listen to it right here:
And that's pretty much it for this announcement!
Again, thanks everyone for playing Hypogea, and have a great rest of your day!
