Adventurers!

New year, new patch... or what they say! Found some additional improvements in the process of porting the game to Nintendo Switch. So here is a small list of some of the fixes!

• Last level will get a heart once finished (When a level is 100% it will get a heart, last level don't have any collectibles but a heart will now appear once finished).

• Hide UI and option to start dialog when certain cutscenes start

• Hopefully lowered the risk of rocks getting stuck once thrown on screws (World 3)

• Smaller adjustments to objects that clipped through environment or floated above ground

• Boss healthbars are visually improved for readability

• Falling from a high distance could risk falling through environment when playing on a lower end device, should be improved.

I hope you all get some well deserved break this holiday, and what better is there than to do than PLAY PAPERKLAY?! :D

All jokes aside, in the process of porting the game to Nintendo Switch I've improved on systems and in general taken the time to look over parts of the game.

Changes / Fixes

• Camera should be even better at avoiding walls.

• Player collision is improved on lower end devices.

• Added a flythrough of the hub when you reach a new world, properly presenting it.

You're free to vote on any category you'd want but I think PaperKlay does stand out with it's visual style!

I have never really felt the need to push for awards with my games but this is the first time it feels like I've made something worth celebrating!

Anyway, I hope you all have a great winter!

Hello everyone!

"Wow another update so fast?" Yeah I'm surprised myself, wasn't planning on dropping it now but Unity announced this morning that more or less everyone had to update their games. Not going to dive into boring details but here we are.

Some things I found while working on the last parts of the Switch port is now coming into the game on Steam.

Changes / Fixes

• Added Korean language!

• Viewing settings in other languages should now look better (keeping it all on the same row if the words are too long)

• Fixed a ground piece that was in the wrong layer (probably not a risk of falling through but still)

• Fixed a rare bug when changing language and going back to the stats screen, "teleport to hub" prompt would sometimes not use the new language.

• Smaller bugs that occurred when resetting settings to default.

• When deleting a save, the controller would vibrate on the highest setting for 1 second (my bad, it was a debug purpose that slipped through)

Whenever I patch PaperKlay and I spend time playing the game I get very happy. I'm glad that I'm looking at PaperKlay with joy. Grateful that people are enjoying it as well. Been seeing some people talk online which is appreciated and helps a ton!

Hello everyone!

Funny story but.. I think last patch introduced some issues in the Remix / Challenge levels at the end of the game. If you want the inside scoop, some of the optimization for the Nintendo Switch version got through and wasn't fully stable on the Steam version so it threw some errors which caused some players to not being able to finish those levels.

That should be fixed now and in general work better (fingers crossed).

IN OTHER NEWS, my company WhyKev turns 6 years old on the 27th of September. There's always room in the comment section if you want to say congrats down below!

Now.. back to porting this game, I appreciate that some of you have kept asking for console versions!

Take care,

Kevin

Hello Egg Collectors!

I hope your summer break have been great! I've managed to find time to update some smaller issues and continued the port for the Nintendo Switch version (are we allowed to talk about that stuff here?).

Either way, for the upcoming console release and future of PaperKlay I wanted to make sure the artwork reflected the tone of the game (for context, the previous artwork was made after working on the game for 5 months, and the full release took almost 3.5 years so the game changed in tone a bit in that time).

Patch Notes:

• Floor is lava puzzle should now be more stable when on low framerate.

• Fixed small visual issue in last Nugget level.

• Cogs on the side of the screen in pause menu are now hidden when not able to be used to avoid confusion.

• Secret door in Wool Tower now have collision... forcing you to actually solve the secret.

• Changed a platform sequence in the third remix level, this should improve framerate.

• Fixed issue where the black shadow below player would sometimes get stuck when jump off a ledge.

This is the "full artwork" but I'll mostly use a version with less characters to make it more readable!

Take care everyone

I was waiting for this part. Had to wait a bit with "regular patches" when fixing some last stuff with this patch to get the game verified on Steam Deck.

While I'm still trying to "take vacation" for a bit, I do fix some smaller things from time to time. I also want to say hi to all new players who bought the game during the summer sale! I hope you have fun with PaperKlay!

Nintendo Switch version is still being worked on but no news yet, just that it's coming along.

Adventurers!

Some further improvements have been added to the game and even some fixes have been addressed! Let's dive into them right away!

Patch Notes

• Cutscenes should properly adjust the volumes based on audio settings.

• Current button amount is visible in the outfits and badges tab in the pause screen

• Outfit sprites added to the outfit tab

• Addressed a small issue where sprint particles could still be playing during cutscenes.

• When standing by a book and you don't have enough orbs, they'll shake and change color for further communication to the player that they don't have enough orbs.

• Using Alt + Tab should not swap to keyboard input while playing with a controller.

If no major issues are coming up, I will probably focus on console version and vacation for a while. Have a fun adventure everyone!

Hi Egg Hunters!

I've been watching a lot of streams, videos and getting messages from players. Feels really good to hear how fun you guys are having with the game! I myself have been able to relax since the latest patch!

Patch Notes

• Increase range for when picking up creatures and throwable stuff.

• Increased checkpoint triggers at end of Purring Depths to prevent a small chance of falling forever when respawning.

• Improved spawn position when entering levels (used to spawn inside or on top of a book).

• Scissors should no longer be able to push player through the ground.

• Increased attack range (4 -> 4.4).

• Fixed an issue where language wasn't properly set when starting the game.

• Dialog fix during last boss battle.

• Nugget should no longer be able to fall out of levels.

• Row distance in dialogs are increased to prevent bigger fonts from overlapping (Japanese and Chinese languages)

I hope you all are doing great and let me know if you find issues and I'll get to it! :)
