You can view the register form in the dev-console and the nicknames of these amazing people too. Experimental Steamdeck Support I've also extended the experimental Steamdeck support. Feature-Removal I've tried to maintain the YouTube player asset (yes, it's a bought asset) for years now and it just keeps breaking, so I sadly had to finally remove it and with it the achievement too. This was the amazing progress-bar-history documentation. I asked them back in the day if I can include it directly in the game (which would always work) or license it, but they sadly declined. So here is the YouTube video about the history of progress bars. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34658072/18da1e9f9e96e1569cc5896f4b5f66dab146c590.png NEW GAME We are also working on a new game: Light Switch Simulator.

UPDATE: This Update was delayed, because we couldn't make a new sale, because our game was "too cheap", because we never updated our prices and they went below thresholds on all of our games. Unity wanted to introduce a completely insane runtime fee for every installation of a game ever made with Unity, which would had bankrupt many studios. To honor this very "interesting" decision, we added a new achievement: BANKRUPT. Install our game 5 times and you would had cost us more money that we would had made on a sale * * WAY before that, because of all the fees, but we are going for gross revenue here ^^" You can read our statement here: The state(ment) of Unity A lot of people put videos together about what happened, here is a playlist with Callum Upton and Lost Relic Games who summed it up pretty well. PLAYLIST We also added a rudimentary Steam Deck support for the main menu (dev console is still a work in progress), better firehorse error message and the reviews of Miky11 review and blueskies9968. Also added "date" command to the terminal to show what the date is that the PBS receives from the operating system (which for some people seems to be not what they expect under certain circumstances ^^") Happy progressing 🩹 PATCHDAY 0.9.9.8 🩹Mar 12, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsHello progressing people, Today is patchday, so ready your bars to progress right into it! Mystery Activity A player had some concerns about the CPU-load of our game, so I looked into it. While I could answer some questions, I found a bug I fixed in another project but never patched it back into the Progress Bar Simulator (which I thought I had done a long time ago). So thanks AROAH for the findings :ghsmile: !

It is still a bit limited, so I might do something more with it in the future.
