The big update is here! Desktop Pals 2.0 has been published. This is the first major update and aims to address the many issues that popped up during the release while also adding some fun new content. This update contains the following improvements and changes:
2 New free Pals have been added! Pearl (a panda) and Duke (a dog) have been added as free new Pals! They are just as cute as the cats and are the first of many free pals which I hope to add in the coming updates.
The settings have undergone a huge overhaul. You can now easily reset them. You can change the volume of the game, and moving the pals around is much easier with the hold function.
The UI has also been improved. The pal menu is now dynamic, and you can scroll through the selection. This makes it easier to move through it without getting confused.
Many bugs have been fixed. This came with a complete overhaul of the code that I used (boring stuff), as the previous one was lazily written and terribly unreliable. This code overhaul will improve the overall stability of the game.
I would also like to discuss an upcoming price change. In 2 - 3 weeks, I will change the game from f2p to paid; I am currently planning to make it cost 1$. I feel it is now at a point where I can charge a small fee for it, allowing for more support and fewer troll players.
This gives those of you who are not interested in purchasing it a lot of time to play around with it without being cut off straight away. This price change is in line with my future plans for this game, which include a Steam Workshop.
As always, I am open to any questions or suggestions. Many thanks to everyone for the support; the game received amazing reviews so far!
