- Changing monster position on LightsOff anomaly so player won't die immediately
- Some anomalies visual change

Outside of the store page, we haven't really shared much about what GGS is about, so here's a rundown:

• Goofy Goober Simulator (We'll refer to it as GGS Classic) was a small top down one-screen shooter filled entirely with placeholder art. Our lead programmer found it funny, and tinkered with it to be a bit larger scale, which became the first build of GGS.
  
• GGS has gone through, what, roughly 5 distinct major builds so far, with the steam release being the latest. This build is hopefully close to the true potential of the original GGS classic, while remaining in its original engine. That original engine is, uh, Turbowarp*.
  
• While Turbowarp is *excellent*, especially in its modding capabilities, it's MUCH harder to make something compared to Unity or Unreal, leading to a much lower scope than originally planned (one previous build was a objective based shooter closer to DOOM, but that quickly fell through.)
  
• To stay true to its roots, we will be remaining in Turbowarp for the rest of GGS's lifetime. Don't get your hopes up, lol.
  
• Oh, and this is a rage game. this is going to be difficult. good luck.
  
  This is, at the end of the day, a passion project, and thus isn't a full priority, BUT we've still been cooking up some features!
  
  Since the store page was set up, we've...
  
  • Finished the level route, start to finish
    
  • Ported features from the original GGS Classic
    
  • Added a handful of weapons and items
    
  • Filled (almost) every level with a fair variety of Little Guys that want to bite your hand off
    
  • Finished... some kind of plot...
    
  • Worked on polishing as much as we can to brush off the rougher edges
    
  • Implemented Steam Achievements
  
  it's certainly something. we hope you all call this game "something" too. in fact, one could even call this game "really Something".
  
  .....When's this coming out? Uh expect sometime around
  
  EARLY APRIL 2025
  Count your stars until then. Stay... Goofy? Spooky? something like that. I still don't know if there's gonna be a fishing minigame yet...

As we approach the early access release, I want to share with you the updates I've made based on all the valuable feedback you provided throughout the demo period. I've listened closely to your suggestions and made changes to enhance the gameplay experience, making it more enjoyable and immersive. All of these updates will be available in the early access release.

👥 NPC Updates: The NPC mechanics on the map have been completely revamped. A total of 22 new NPCs have been added, and they can now interact with their surroundings. Be careful when driving , as NPCs can be run over!

🏢 Custom Vending Machine Branding: The panel on top of the vending machines has been improved. You can now design your own company name and logo and see it on your vending machines.

🏦 Bank System: The bank feature has been added to the game. Now, in tough situations, you can take out a loan to progress faster. But beware , make sure to check your daily repayments before taking out a loan!

📘 Tutorial Menu: 💻 You can now access all useful information about the game via the Tutorial Menu on the computer.

• 🖥️ Main Menu Animation: A small but charming animation has been added when entering the main menu.
  
• 🗺️Early Access Roadmap: An early access roadmap that you can follow in the game has been added.
  
• 🔘 Main Menu Button Update: The buttons in the main menu have been resized to prevent text overflow.
  
• 💡 Vehicle Lights: Vehicle lights can now be assigned to a button and can be turned on or off as needed.
  
• 📋 Quest Tracking UI: A detailed quest UI has been added to the top left corner to make tracking quests easier.
  
• 🛠️Vending Machine Selling Feature:You can now sell your vending machines for a slightly lower price than you purchased them for.
  
• 🌐 Language and Translation Fixes: Translation errors in English and other languages have been fixed.
  
• 🚗 Vehicle Driving Mechanic: The driving mechanics have been reworked to provide a more stable and realistic driving experience.
  
• 🖥️ Resolution Restriction Removed: You can now play the game in any resolution supported by your graphics card.
  
• 🖌️ General UI Improvements: Various adjustments have been made to the user interface.
  
• ↕️ Misaligned Products: Some misaligned products inside the vending machines have been fixed.

I've made significant adjustments to the economy system. My goal is to make the game more realistic and enjoyable at the same time. Just like in real businesses, the more time you invest, the more profit you can make! Here are the updates in this context:

• 💳 Loans: When you're in a tough spot or want to progress faster, you can take out a loan.
  
• 🏷️ Vending Machine Prices: Vending machine prices have been increased.
  
• 🔓 Vending Machine Unlock Levels: The levels required to unlock vending machines have been changed.
  
• 💰Starting Money: You now start the game with $650.
  
• 🎯 Level and XP Balance: Early levels have been made slightly more challenging, but overall progress has been made easier.
  
• 💲 Product Prices: Product prices have been adjusted. As you level up, you'll be able to buy and sell more expensive products.
  
• 🍲 Hot Food Vending Machine: The capacity of hot food vending machines has been increased to 60 products, reducing the need for constant refilling.
  
• 📍 Vending Machine Location Rent: The daily rent for vending machine locations has been slightly increased.
  
• ⚙️ Vending Machine Failures and Attacks: The rate at which vending machines fail or get attacked has been reduced, so you won't need to monitor them as frequently. 🤕
  
• ⏳ Game Day Duration: The game day has been extended, giving you more time to work and pay the next day's bills.
  
• 🏠 Daily House Rent: Daily house rent bills will now be due.

I would love to hear your comments and feedback about this update note. 📝 With your support, I will continue to improve the game. ❤️ See you in early access next week on November 8th! 🎮🚀

• adjustments to npc vehicle routes around town

Dear Players,

We hope this message brings you good news. In light of recent developments and the valuable feedback we've received, we have decided to make some adjustments to our previously announced skill adjustment plans.

***"Mirrorcraft" Skill Adjustment***

Based on actual testing and feedback, we have decided to prioritize the adjustment of the mage skill "Mirrorcraft." The original adjustment plan remains unchanged, and the "Mirrorcraft" skill will be updated according to the previously announced adjustment plan as scheduled.

【Mirrorcraft】:
[Before]: Single-target skill: Summon a copy of a target creature
[After]: Single-target skill: Summon a copy of a target creature. Has no effect on elites.

[Before]

[After]


***Compensation Standards and List for "Mirrorcraft" Modification***

The compensation standards and list for the "Mirrorcraft" adjustment will be executed according to the original rules. We appreciate everyone's understanding and patience as we work to ensure that these changes and compensations are properly implemented.
The final confirmation time for the compensation list is server time[[b]October 30, 2024, 12:00 Beijing time[/b]].

Compensation Standard:

[For each “Godlike” quality card]: Master’s Skill Pack IV *5 + silver *2,000,000 + Medal of honor *200 + Lunar Chest (Legendary) *2
[For each “Legendary” quality card]: Master’s Skill Pack IV *2 + silver *500,000 + Medal of honor *100 + Starlight Chest (Epic) *1
[For each “Epic” quality card]: Master’s Skill Pack IV *1 + silver *100,000 + Medal of honor *60

***Temporary Suspension of Other Skill adjustments***

The adjustments to other skills mentioned in the previous announcement (Blood Exchange, Impartial Decree, Death's Door) will be temporarily suspended. We believe this decision will allow us to focus more on refining other skill changes to better meet everyone's expectations and enhance the gaming experience.

***Adaptability of Other Planned Skill Changes***

We would like to further clarify that the originally planned adjustments for other skills may be adapted based on the actual situation in the game, which means that the final implemented skill changes may differ from the initially announced version. These adjustments are based on several key factors, including player feedback, game balance, and data monitoring and analysis. Therefore, although we initially had a clear plan for skill changes, we will adjust flexibly based on the above factors to ensure that the final skill changes bring the best gaming experience to all players.

We value everyone's support and understanding, and we will make these changes with your assistance. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us. We are here to listen and improve the game.

Thank you for being a part of our gaming community.
