Game Versions/Version 0.2.3



January 12, 2016

Official Announcement

Changes:
 * Added the version number on the main menu
 * Added new tutorials for Largos and a general tutorial to let you know you've completed all the initial tutorials.
 * Added an invert view-y-axis option for both gamepad and mouse.
 * Make Tarrs in fresh water react as if hit by water.
 * Improved indication of selected item in various purchase and Slimepedia screens.
 * Moved game save file location (Was in a "SlimeRancher\SlimeRancher Prototype" directory, now in "Monomi Park\Slime Rancher"). Note: the game should automatically copy your files over so you should not need to do anything to get to old save files.
 * Added an indicator on the garden of how long the current crop will last before it needs replanting.
 * Adjusted the prices of several ranch features, upgrades, and expansions.
 * Decreased the number of slimes requested at one time on the Range Exchange.
 * Added some additional barriers to restrict access to the Ranch Expansions.
 * Added a (possibly temporary) "Emergency Return" option to allow players to knock themselves out and return to the Ranch if they're stuck. (With all the usual penalties for being knocked out)

Bugfixes:
 * Fixed bug where attempting to shoot a held largo or crate with a gamepad would fail. Note: You will likely need to set your gamepad options to re-set the trigger buttons for vac and shoot to enable this fix.
 * Fixed bug causing the Air Drive upgrade to be more powerful than intended.
 * Fixed bug where vaccing underwater did not collect water.
 * Fixed bug where an overcrowded Grotto or Overgrowth could still have disappearing slimes.
 * Fixed bug where expansion doors would trigger after they'd been unlocked*instead they properly pop up the Slimepedia page for their expansion.
 * Fixed bug where sometimes miniature fruits/veggies would be present in the world.
 * Fixed bug where Rock Tabby Largos sometimes had extra spikes.
 * Fixed bug where plort prices would stop updating.
 * Fixed bug preventing briar hens from spawning
 * Fixed bug where exiting the game from within the Grotto would leave the main menu scene incorrectly lit.
