Install Notes<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Linux<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Under Linux, you have to change the execution rights on the game file:
    \nchmod +x aThiefsMelody.*<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Mac OS<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Haha… I didn’t test on Mac, because I don’t have a Mac. But the beauty of Unity is that I can release on Mac from a Windows system anyway.
      \nSo, if Mac users out there want to give it a try and tell me what’s wrong (or what’s right, hopefully \ud83d\ude09 ), you’re most welcome!<\/p>\n

      What’s new since the last demo?<\/h3>\n

      You have to know the demo quests are more or less final at the moment. The next official demos (including this one) will only provide bug fixes and graphics\/sound\/music enhancement.<\/p>\n

      Since November 2015, a lot of things happened on the game (but not that much on the demo). I won’t list everything here, but the main updates are:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Polishing & refinement of the combat system<\/li>\n
      • Polishing of the magnetic gauntlet mechanics, especially visual feedback.<\/li>\n
      • 11 New levels<\/li>\n
      • 2 New Bosses<\/li>\n
      • Polluted Water Zones<\/li>\n
      • New UI including: a control remapping screen, a better quest archiving system, better tool tips, and visual enhancing<\/li>\n
      • Re-design\/correction of the first tutorial<\/li>\n
      • Design overhaul of Zephyr Island (not finished yet) including a shop, the zoological center and the Quack Shack<\/li>\n
      • Minor tweeks on the Bo Dojo<\/li>\n
      • Background continuous saves.\u00a0You don’t need to worry about saves anymore.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        What’s broken ?<\/h3>\n

        You didn’t expect everything to work perfectly, did you? I’m aware of a few bugs\/regressions\/problems:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Controls are displayed in English, whatever language you choose, and the button names are too generic to be easily understandable.<\/li>\n
        • The game is slower than before. I must clearly redo another optimization pass.<\/li>\n
        • Some assets still need work to be done or polished (Audio, Graphics, UI, …)<\/li>\n
        • Some camera moves are a bit harsh\/weird<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Have fun! Peace!<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
