It Was Still Broken And Almost Stayed That Way


Losing my goddamn dick over this thing.

A GameJolt user who's played the last few versions of the game, the only person I've ever loved, informed me that the supermarket crash is fixed.
Also, that it was replaced by another one. Also in the supermarket. And another one in the menu.
So I fixed these single-line issues and quickly implemented a new feature - the patch system! Now when things are fucked I can just upload a patch file that doesn't require an entire redownload for users or an entire re-export and re-upload for me. So I re-exported and re-uploaded one more time with this new system.

It didn't work.

So I re-worked, re-tested and re-uploaded the entire thing again and maybe it'll actually take this time. Nobody downloaded the busted version here so none of you got to experience my trauma, the people on GameJolt were slightly less lucky.

I'm lucky this is a demo run and not an actual release because the nonsense this production cycle has gone through is truly bad. I'm one hobbyist so I know we were never expecting anything good to begin with but I'd still like to aim for things to be a bit better. We'll find out how that goes in the future.

In any case I took a break from a game jam that ends in like 2 days to work on this so take from that what you will k bye

EDIT: I've since recieved word that the latest version CAN in fact be finished, the game-breaking bugs finally eradicated. The tension headache I've had since I uploaded this thing has finally started to subside.
