Shift Happens - Matt


Post Release Patch v1.1 and 20% discount!
Almost four months have passed now and we have been quiet for a long time since the release of Shift Happens v1.0. To celebrate our first patch the game will be on discount for 20% for a week! :)
We were working on different other projects (contract work) but collected all the feedback in the forums and tried to squeeze in as much extra time as we could to improve Shift Happens.

We also felt that the hat feature we implemented was too hidden in the game to get recognized and so we changed it. Now you can simply select any hat in the lobby. You might also recognize some of your favourite youtubers amongst them:





We also fixed a few issues, mostly online multiplayer things:
  • Added "FXAA" Option for Anti-Aliasing in settings
  • Fixed "Don't be mad at your friend" timechallenge achievement.You will need to replay (and pass) any multiplayer timechallenge to finally unlock this achievement.
  • Fixed an input menu bug with custom settings
  • Fixed graphic issues in credits scene
  • Network: Improved sync in general
  • Network: Fixed chain coin async
  • Network: Fixed size async
  • Network: Fixed endless loading screen
  • Network: Fixed dead players snapping
  • Network: Fixed holodeck effect playing for client on restarted timetrials
  • Network: Fixed cutscene async in winroom

Huge thanks to everyone that bought the game, wrote a review or simply liked us on our social media channels. We appreciate it very much.

Cheers,

Team of Klonk

Happy Valentines Day everyone!
Although we said we are not going to have another update, we wanted to make a small Valentines Special.

Robin and Elena modelled special hats for Valentines Day during a livestream session and we put them in the game: Game Dev Stream in german
We believe Shift Happens is the perfect game for couples, families, friends, lovers and everyone that enjoys couch co-op. So obviously we have to celebrate Valentines Day in Shift Happens!

Enjoy this small little update, be excited about our release on February 22nd and spread your co-op love with our special co-op heart <2.

We created a small site where we listed all existing hats that can be unlocked in the game:
Unlockable Hats

Small Demo Update
On another note, we updated our demo site, because it was very much outdated!
Demo Up-to-Date

Rembember: Every like or follower supports us, so hit us up anytime on Twitter
and Facebook

Release!
I can't believe I am actually writing these words but we have a final release date for Shift Happens:
February 22nd, which is roughly one week after Valentines Day.

We couldn't be happier about it! Therefore I'd like to point out again that we are very grateful for everyone that supported us by either buying the game in Early Access, giving us feedback, writing a review or simply telling us that they like it.
Considering that Shift Happens most certainly wasn't an ideal type of game for an Early Access title (linear playthrough, depending on lots of content, very co-op), we still think it was good to put it out there and have the players take a look. We also learned a lot by going through the process and will take that experience into consideration for future projects.
We hope you are as excited as we are and are looking forward to the 22nd.

Livestream today
We will also have a livestream @ CET 7pm with Nora, our character artist and Simon our Shader/FX and 3D Art guy today on twitch creating some new hats for the game.

Cheers,

Happy new years!
Hey gals and boys! First off, a late happy new years to you all. All Klonkers have had their hard-earned vacations over christmas and new years and we are back in 2017 with fresh energy.
We are so very happy to tell you guys, that this will be the last patch before our final release. Everybody has been busy working on the game and finishing the last stage, the grotto!
Although the release date is still not exactly set in stone, we can definitely say it will be soon and launched for Steam, XBOX and PS4 aswell!

15% off, should I get the game now or wait?
For everybody that has had the game on the wishlist for a while now and always waited for the full release, I'd like to tell you that we will raise the price for the full launch to 14,99$. This means, you should definitely get it now since it will be a little bit more expensive when fully released. And you'll get the same version anyways.


As a reminder, the game will fully feature the following content:
  • Local and Online Co-op
  • 32 singleplayer level incl. 4 unlockable bonuslevel
  • 41 multiplayer level incl. 4 unlockable bonuslevel
  • Story cutscenes
  • unlockable hats via a code
  • 31 unlockable achievements
  • 6 Trading Cards

We also have a few small fixes for you :)

Fixes
General:
  • Fixed a bug where the "reset controls"-message always appeared for no reason
  • Fixed a bug that was caused when you lifted a crate over an edge
  • Added a new picture in the input menu for PS4 controllers

Netcode:
  • Fixed a bug where Bismo & Plom stayed inactive in the main menu when leaving an online session

We also updated the whole Store Page!
Enjoy everybody!

All the best,
Team of Klonk
