Mac OS release!

16 May, 2024

I've been working hard on getting A Difficult Game About Climbing running and notarized for MacOS. Apple has concocted up quite an elaborate process for making apps run properly on MacOS.

As satisfying as it is to finally get the game running on Mac, Apple users can now experience the same satisfaction if not greater by finally attempting to reach the peak in this difficult game... about climbing...

As always, please report any issues you may encounter in the official Discord Channel[discord.gg].

See you up there climbers!

General Improvements - Patch Notes v1.138

6 May, 2024

Fixed a few things that have been on the TO DO list for a while but never made it into a patch until now.

Added a button to reset your personal best time.
Further improved the save system to minimize corrupted save files.
Improved menu experience when using a gamepad.
In Game Timer becomes visible (if turned off) for a brief period when finishing the game to assist with speedrun verification. (This only happens on runs AFTER you've completed the game at least once).
Fixed some bad colliders. (Cloud colliders and extended blocking Ice on the right to prevent players from falling into the abyss on the last section.)

Small Tweaks - Patch Notes v1.137

15 Apr, 2024

Patch notes v1.137:

Pendulum in the cogwheel tower has a more predictable pattern so no more "bad cycles".
Clothes line should be less "crazy" when you reach it very quickly.
Turned up physics calculations a little bit so that there are fewer "errors" in the physics engine which should lead to more predictable gameplay behaviour.
Tweaked some friction values for certain objects (very minor changes).

Hotfix - v1.133

6 Apr, 2024

Small update with a couple of fixes:

The "Pull Up" feature is being affected by the "Mouse Sensitivity" slider - this was actually unintentional, but since Speedrunners are likely going to want a more aggressive pull from their "Pull Up" command than casual players, and since speedrunners also tend to run their game on a higher sensitivity - this actually makes sense :)

There was however a bug where if you reduce your sensitivity to the lowest - the "Pull Up" feature no longer worked, this has been fixed!
Fixed small issue where the hand would "detach" from a surface if you push into it extremely hard.

Gamepad Overhaul + Much more! - Patch Notes

1 Apr, 2024

Thanks everyone for continuously reporting bugs! I've been working non-stop to fix the most glaring issues.

If your hands were pulling in one direction constantly - please update to the latest version and try again as this has now been fixed :)

Having a Steering Wheel/Flight Sim rig or similar plugged in should no longer cause the player's arms to pull in one direction continuously.
Big overhaul to Gamepad controls - Tweaked for better playability and added sensitivity option in the menu.
You can now choose target frame rate (FPS) in the options menu.

Other small tweaks include:

Red balls in park are now frame rate independent.
Added some particles when you grab the mushrooms :)
Secret super gift should no longer trigger every time you finish the game.
There were some issues when grabbing rocks under water - these issues have been fixed.
Pausing during fade to black / fade from black was causing issues so pausing during those moments have been disabled.

Cheers everyone! Please keep reporting any issues with the game and I will do my best to fix them :)
