2022 Patch 3Feb 28, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsNew feature: Press Backspace to skip the current clip. Fixes for bug in Patch #1: Two fonts not displaying Russian characters. 2022 Patch 2: The Big OneFeb 26, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsIt's the Big One! Game updates: PlayStation button prompts option. By popular demand! We went into George Lucas mode and made minor changes to 10 clips to smooth out some remaining editing issues. Global Stats detailed breakdowns: Ever wanted to know how many other people also tried to watch Christina shower today? Now you can find out! See how much you’ve contributed to the Global Stats! Note that it has only been recording properly for the last two weeks. Steam updates: The Soundtrack DLC has been updated to Steam’s new Soundtrack format. New images added to fully support Steam’s new Library view. Our Library page is all spiffy looking now! UPDATE 2/28 Now Patch #3 is out! New feature: Press Backspace to skip the current clip. Fixes for bug in Patch #1: Two fonts not displaying Russian characters. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/10372035/0418b215d0e791b7ef49ca99629308618166b74b.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/10372035/b946bfbba93cb851ea9d570432c8bffd418749a5.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/10372035/a6e7f9504239ef262b0359b9e009fb34ca46ba8b.jpg2022 Patch 1Feb 10, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsA Press X to Not Die update in 2022? It’s true! We’re working on cough something new cough and taking the opportunity to port some of the new features we're developing back into Press X to Not Die. This patch is happening now cause we wanted to get recording Global Stats out ASAP, with cooler stuff coming later on. In this patch: As part of modernizing our dev tools, we’ve migrated the game engine from an FNA/XNA hybrid to an FNA/MonoGame hybrid. This fundamentally changes how the game handles all text and art assets so please let us know if you notice anything amiss! Global Stats: We never got these working consistently before but now they are. Ever wanted to know just how many times people have died or tried to watch Christina shower? Well, unfortunately, we were only able to record those numbers about 9% of the time before but we’ll be recording them 100% of the time from now on! Mouse makes more sense now. Ever click on one menu item and then the game opened a different menu item instead? Yeah, the old mouse code was weird and just kind of simulated a gamepad controlling the menus. Now it actually functions like how you’d expect a mouse to work! 1994 Mode: Now pixelates absolutely everything, including pop-ups. Other bug fixes.

What does this mean for you? Glad you asked! Improved compatibility: The XNA Framework was incompatible with certain hardware including some models of GeForce GTX graphics cards, rendering the game completely unplayable for a small percentage of users, frustrating them and us alike. Those users should now be able to play the game! Faster video loading: The XNA Framework always froze the game momentarily whenever loading a video, making for a less than smooth experience when a lot of video switching was going on. FNA totally loads videos without freezing! Native PS4 controller support: Plug and play, the way it should be, no third party software required! Note that the button prompts will still display Xbox button icons but, you know, Steam itself does that too... Will address in the future! While we were at it, we also made a few tweaks. Higher video quality: We had to re-render all the video to use with the FNA Framework which also gave us new render settings that we used to increase the video quality! Improved crash handling to more easily give you the information you need to tell us that we need to help you! (That sentence made sense, right?) You can now select options in pop-up menus with left and right on the keyboard! A number of minor edits to videos to improve flow & correct some editing errors. We've tested it thoroughly but of course we can only try a tiny fraction of the thousands of possible configurations out there so please let us know any issues you may encounter!
