Players can now cut their engines while preserving their forward momentum.
Fixed jittering issues from the client side. Now both client and server are updated at the same time.
Mouse steering controls have been reworked to more accurately reflect gamepad steering controls.
Subtle steering is now easier and more accurate thanks to the new input curve.
Boosting forces a higher throttle value making it so players can no longer move slowly while also boosting.
Impact sparks are now proportional to the player's speed.
Players are now momentarily slowed when coming into contact with the environment.
Acceleration now takes a moment to kick in again after cutting engines. This results in a smoother trajectory when changing directions with cut engines.
Various tick event calls have been rearranged to be more efficient.
The input system handling switching between gamepad and mouse inputs has been improved to be smoother.
Cut engines on keyboard is space bar and on gamepad is left trigger.
User ability on keyboard is E and on gamepad is Y or Up on the D-Pad.
The Shape On The Ground (Steam Edition) - somewhatsoftware
Are you ready to discover the intriguing nature of our new software, The Shape On The Ground?
TSOTG is part personality test, part walking sim and part horror experience. While the title contains no scares to speak of, it is drenched in a dark and morbid atmosphere influenced by the works of the Brothers Quay and Jan Svankmajer, while offering an opportunity for self-reflection akin to a horoscope or tarot card reading.
All in all, get ready for a video game experience like no other, available in one week, on Tuesday June 15th 2021.
Originally released on another platform in 2018, this new version contains new environments to explore and two new dioramas to find. Delve deeper into the mystic symbolism of the dioramas with this new content, which will hopefully give you a lot to reflect on.
Hello friends! Due to the fact that many people are now forced to be at home in quarantine, we decided to add another Let's Play Together competition in the middle of the week. This is an experiment. There can be different crazy levels. There will be no prizes. Perhaps this will last only for the period of forced isolation, but if everyone likes this extra competition format we will make it permanent.
The rules are the same: log in to our Discord server, keep it running, play a competitive level, complete it with 5 stars and have fun! Visit our Discord server (#lets-play-together channel) to learn more.
