Update v135 - Food types, quality of life improvements & bug fixes


This update also contain the content of v132 and v134 updates that I published last year on Steam. I will make sure to update Itchio accordingly for any upcoming updates in the future.

The content in this update is already paving the way for the next one, but after weeks of fixing bugs and improving some features I thought it was time to release them so that I can focus on what's next: latest cave levels.

Here are some more details about what this update includes:

Additional food types

I've been asking around on socials what kind of food you'd like to see in the game and from your responses I've added the following:

Name Sprite
Apple
Banana
Fromage
Pizza slice
Strawberry

On the character select screen, you can press the F keyboard key (or Y button on an Xbox controller) to swap between food types. Your food type preference will be saved automatically.

If you want to see a specific food type in the game, let me know in the comments below. I will review it and do my best to add it to the roadmap.

Quality of life improvements

I regularly read reviews you leave on the game store page, and based on your feedbacks I added a bunch of quality improvements such as:

  • On overworld map, you can now see the total number of eggs collected;
  • If an egg has been collected already in a level, this egg will have a fade effect of 50% opacity in that level so that it is easier to understand it has been collected already. You can recollect it, but it won't be added to the total eggs you own;
  • Added some screen transition animations between the overworld map and levels;
  • Simplified layout on character select screen by removing a couple of not so useful texts and replacing them with icons and input sprites related to input method (gamepad or keyboard);
  • New input buttons and less texts on following screens: character selection screen, overworld map screen, dialogs in levels;
  • Back action on overworld map screen now redirects players to character selection screen instead of start screen;

I'd like to thank you again for giving me your feedbacks as it helps me ship a better game for you and others.

Bug fixes

And as usual in any updates, some bug fixes such as:

  • Start screen: fixed a bug where sometimes the “Zzz” animation was shown when baby dino was walking to the right of the screen;
  • Savegame file: fixed a bug where egg collected was added twice to total eggs collected;
  • Character select screen: fixed a bug where dinos for player 2, 3 or 4 were not shown sometimes;
  • Level 17 (Beach): fixed a bug where it was impossible to break the egg crate preventing players to collect the egg in this level;
  • Level 22 (Cave): mushroom was not falling down after tnt explodes resulting in players being stuck and can not go back up to finish level;

Thanks for reading so far.

Talk to you later,
Antoine G.
