The highlight of this small update is of course, Steam Deck compatibility!
While Valve hasn't officially reviewed the game, I have tested it in my own Steam Deck, and with this update it seems like everything is working perfectly!
Bug fixes: Fixed an inconsistency in moving ice blocks speed, that made the game harder and prevented some shortcuts on speed challenges. Fixed a bug where breakable ice would remain after being deleted in the level editor.
New feature: You can click on a user's name in the challenge leaderboards (official challenges or custom ones) you will access their steam profile (they need to have uploaded their score in the past year, or have opened the game recently as in the first versions the steam ID of the user was not uploaded).
It's that time of year again where wearing a costume is expected!...no, we're not talking about those big family gatherings in December where you have to wear that ugly sweater Grandma got you....IT'S HALLOWEEEEEEN!!!
For this year, Kao thought long and hard about what costume he should wear. There's a new Halloween film out, but we've all seen so many Mr.Myers costumes.
How about Squid Games?...but people stopped talking about it. Hmmm...perhaps it's a good time to dress like a hero of the 3d platforming genre. Not a classic hero, but a modern hero. Who else has breathed life into such a genre...and then it struck them...Yooka!
Thanks to our friends at Team 17 and Playtonic, we're are ecstatic to bring you the Yooka X Kao DLC!
This DLC features a full costume based on Yooka to be donned by Kao in-game!
Additionally, a new bundle will be available containing both Yooka-Laylee & Kao The Kangaroo!
Introducing The Collecting Friends Bundle, featuring two full-time collectors without a big-head plastic model in sight! Enjoy the modern classic Yooka-Laylee and the returning cult hero Kao The Kangaroo in one neat bundle! You won’t need to collect 100 coins and feathers to unlock this deal!
Fans of 3D platformers will have plenty to chomp on while they jump, spin, dive, and dodge their way through two grand adventures fueled by the glory days of 3D platforming!
The «Trick-or-Treat» mini-game has already become a Halloween tradition. Have you been waiting for it?
On October 28th, we invite you to take part in our dangerous journey to search for valuable prizes!
With the server restart on Friday, from October 28th 2 AM UTC, the «Trick-or-Treat» mini-game starts on the special website. You will have time to conquer all the demonic islands in the afterlife and to grab all the prizes till November 24th, 2 AM UTC!
To get your tank move between mysterious islands, your tank will need fuel — lollipops.
Lollipops
They are the special event currency. You can track the number of your lollipop reserves in the interface of the mini-game.
Here are the ways you can get lollipops:
Complete a daily mission — 4 lollipops
Complete a special event mission — 40 lollipops
Catch a lollipop goldbox — 1 lollipop
Purchase Halloween special offers, packs of Premium Pass, and tankoins
Important: The «Trick-or-Treat» mini-game’s website is only available on PC; You still can earn lollipops by playing the mobile version of the game, but to enter the website you will need a PC.
How to start
To start your journey, you need to log in to the mini-game website, using the nickname and the password of your in-game account.
If you use Facebook to log in to your account, you will need to contact our customer service to get a password for your account to enter the website.
Islands
The mini-game map consists of islands and on each of them either a trick or treat awaits you.
Let’s start with treats — crystals, tankoins, containers and batteries. When you visit an island, a treat is sent to a special storage at the Checkpoint, and is not immediately credited to your in-game account.
When your launch engines of your tank, 10 lollipops are consumed and they may be enough to move one, two or three islands forward.
And now let’s talk about tricks — there will be special «Islands of Fortune» on your way. By entering them, you can move either forward, or go 5 islands back. Within the same lap, each trap can only work once, so if you hit an «Island of Fortune» and are pushed back, this one «Island of Fortune» will not push you back in this lap again.
Don’t worry, even if luck is not on your side and you get pushed back, you can receive a reward for each island that you pass twice on your way forwards.
Checkpoints
After passing the whole lap, a player gets to the checkpoint – the main island. There is a special vault on it to store all the prizes that the player received on these islands. When visiting a main island, the player can transfer the prizes from the vault to their in-game account.
Moreover, whenever you visit a checkpoint, we add more unique rewards to your vault.
A player starts their journey from the 1st checkpoint. The mini-game ends after 5 laps — when you reach the 6th checkpoint.
