Here’s our top 10 list of updates: 1. Respawn at Checkpoints! No more frustrations mid-level! We even place a little ghost granny in every spot you’ve died before so you can remember those difficult moments. 2. A proper campaign with over 50 levels across multiple planets 3. PERSISTENT GORE - it’s everywhere now and accumulates each replay 4. Gooey Moogu do so much more now! Stick monsters in place and build fuses 5. Maker Mode works so much better now with height adjustments to make more complex levels. Assigning paths to creatures is much smoother too. 6. Fixed so many mechanics - Beckon plants aren’t annoying now and monsters have clearer hitboxes. There’s even a poison cloud and tornado now! 7. Every level starts with a flyby animation that lets you see what you’re about to conquer. 8. 100+ new assets in Maker Mode - we found them between the couch cushions and figured why not? 9. New and improved animated cutscenes - honestly we’re just better at 3D now. 10. You actually have to confirm before we delete your Maker level. This was a stupid one that’s totally on us. RIP all those accidentally deleted levels. It just got bigger, bolder, and better! Terrorarium releasing July 28th, 2020Jul 17, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsTerrorarium will be leaving Early Access and fully releasing on July 28th, 2020, less than two weeks from today! We shared our Early Access game just over a year ago, and thanks to all of you, our earliest gardeners, Terrorarium has blossomed during that time. The feedback from fans (and haters, what’s up?) during this time has been inspiring; it’s all really helped us to cultivate the best parts of our game and weed out the worst. We wouldn’t be where we are today without everyone who took a chance and bought our weird little maker game about murder gardening. An extra special thanks goes out to everyone who participated in our level design contest this spring. The Inaugural Intergalactic Murder Gardening Contest was a huge success, and a real pleasure to run. We had over 200 incredible levels submitted to the contest that you can download and play right now (!), from Steam Workshop. The top 15 entries are baked right into the game in a special menu to highlight their achievements, and the grand prize winning level even made it into our story campaign. We are so excited to unleash Terrorarium on the world, and we can’t wait to see all the beautiful gardens, grueling gauntlets, and ridiculous puzzles that you come up with next. Some important notes: We are not able to support a Mac OS version of Terrorarium at launch time. It is something we will look into in the future. Some very old Workshop levels are no longer compatible with the game, and have been hidden. All levels created since the March 2020 update will work as expected. If you made a level in the distant past, we'd love to see an updated version! We have added additional metadata to Workshop published levels. Levels submitted between March and April 2020 will not display the level designer’s name when subscribed. This can be resolved by re-publishing your old levels. Terrorarium is all grown up. We can’t thank our community enough for their feedback, support and enthusiasm; this weird game is so much better for all of you being a part of it. As we take this massive step into the future with our official launch, we are so excited to bring you this version of the game. Onward to gardening victory! Workshop Integration & Bug FixesMay 1, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsWorkshop Integration This update unlocks the ability for users to download and play levels that have been published to Steam Workshop by other players. At this stage, the UI for this feature is temporary and bare-bones, but functional. Under the "Maker Mode" menu item, select "Browse Community Levels" Use the Workshop overlay to browse, subscribe to, or unsubscribe from community levels You can also manage your Workshop subscriptions directly in Steam, or via your web browser Subscribe to up to 25 levels at a time, which will appear in-game on the next load If you are subscribing to levels from the in-game Workshop overlay, you MUST restart your game before they will show up Navigate back to "Browse Community Levels", close the Workshop overlay, and your subscribed levels will be available in a list. Click any item to load and play it Unsubscribing from a level in Workshop will remove it from your game on next load This build also contains various minor bug fixes. Bug Fixes & New FeaturesMar 20, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsThis update fixes a few critical bugs, and adds 2 community requested features that should greatly improve quality of life in Maker Mode. As always, join us on Discord and let us know know what you think! New Features - Added an autosave toggle in Maker Mode - Added the ability to stack breakable items in Maker Mode Bug Fixes - Fixed Shroomovator so Thick Moogu no longer lower it when walking beneath - Fixed an issue where the Gardener would get stuck on top of breakable items. - Fixed collider issues in the Northern Mists map that allowed the Gardener to walk up walls - Fixed some audio looping issues that would play SFX across scenes. Bug Fixes - Feb 26thFeb 26, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsAn update that includes fixes for some of the most significant bugs identified by the community. Fixed a number of issues that caused monster paths to drift after saving a level. Monsters will no longer move during edit mode, and always default to the start of their path when you enter quickplay to preview your work. Added protection against edge cases where a path may drift that prevents monsters from walking outside of the map. Improved the functionality of the “Toggle all paths” button. Paths are now toggled OFF by default Fixed a number of issues with the preview snapshot generated when you publish a level to Workshop. Paths will no longer appear in these snapshots, and items that are in your level should always appear in snapshots now. The quickplay button now automatically deselects itself after the user clicks it. This prevents the user from unintentionally exiting quickplay by hitting spacebar to beckon while previewing a level. Updated colliders on a number of assets to prevent Moogu from getting stuck on their edges. We addressed the worst offenders first. This will be an ongoing process. Added missing colliders to certain Moogu Corpse sizes Fixed a bug where Gooey Moogu blobs would sometimes kill the gardener. Updated the functionality of stacking objects. You can now select and delete objects from within a stack to delete them more reliably. This allows you to create things like walls with doorways for mazes, or structures with upper and lower levels of walkable terrain. Major Early Access Update, Feb 2020Feb 18, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsWe know it has been ages since you’ve heard from us. We’re sorry that we’ve been so silent, but we are excited to say that we are back with a BIG update to Terrorarium, and a lot of exciting news. The feedback that we got from our initial Early Access release made it clear that we had a lot to reconsider about the way that Terrorarium works. With your help, we spent the last months leaning into the good stuff, and steering away from the … less so good. With that being said, here’s a list of everything that’s new in this version of Terrorarium: Massive optimization, performance improvements, & bug fixing: The first Early Access release had some issues, we know that. All of your feedback and bug reports have given us insight into where we should focus the most work to improve. We’re happy to say that the result is a much more stable and smooth gaming experience! The game should run much smoother on almost all devices You should experience far less crashing Many, many, many bug fixes Known exploitable behaviours fixed: Teleporting through objects Falling out of the map Moogu death loops Path editor exploits Sweeping visual updates: We also took some me-time to fix a lot of things that we didn’t like about the last release. Things now look a lot more like we intended. Animations are smoother, visuals pop more, and lights really glow. You can now build some pretty sweet looking murder gardens. Better animations for almost everything 4 visual ‘biomes’ to differentiate assets: Lumina Flora (Bioluminescent Garden) Northern Mists (Frozen Garden) Torrid Wilds (Arid Garden) Sunglow Grove (Jungle Garden) New textures for most objects/monsters Lots of polygon smoothing Many new visual effects on The Gardener and Moogu Many new lighting & post-processing effects Maker Mode quality of life changes: At its core, Terrorarium is a maker game about designing and sharing your own cool little levels (called Murder Gardens). This release focuses heavily on improving that experience, since it’s the main thing that we want players to do within the game. Objects are easier to click and grab for editing Path Editor for moving monsters improved File saving process smoothed out Objects categorized by biomes to allow for map diversity Object scaling modified to reduce map-breaking placements Object colliders modified Various bug fixes and UI improvements Game mechanic changes: One of the game’s core goals is to make Moogu feel important but expendable; hard to control but useful; and symbiotic to the player character. Without them, you can’t do a whole lot, but too many of them become a liability. The last build of the game took this too far and the result was very chaotic. It was fun at times, but too frustrating at others. With that in mind, we significantly changed the way the player uses Moogu, and the Gardener in this update: Breeding: Moogu no longer leave corpses behind when they die, but can breed at ‘Moogu Graveyards’ the player can place with intent. This provides ...Version 1.2.5 releasedApr 26, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsGameplay Improvements Updated Moogu Tree fruits with a glowing particle effect to increase visibility. Monsters will now actually walk into the Gooey trap ability before stopping, instead of stopping on the edge. Minor Bug Fixes Fixed a bug that caused Moogu corpses created in Maker Mode to behave slightly differently than Moogu corpses created through… Moogu death. Fixed a bug where Moogu corpses would sometimes fall through the map in Maker Mode. Fixed a bug that made the Rolling Megacabbage sometimes not kill Moogu. Version 1.2.4 releasedApr 18, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsNew Feature: Maker Mode levels now have thumbnails When the maker mode level is saved a screen capture will be saved. When browsing your maker mode levels in the offline level select you will be able to see your preview thumbnail on the left hand side. When a level is uploaded to Steam, the Steam Workshop item will receive the image as a thumbnail Please note that levels created with previous versions of Terrorarium will need to be edited and saved again to create the screenshot Publishing updates to a level now updates the Steam Workshop item instead of creating a duplicate. Please note that levels published with prior versions of Terrorarium will need to be re-published to Steam Workshop one more time Gameplay Improvements Made an improvement to the Beckon ability. Beckon now wakes Moogu up from any state and calls them to the player much faster. Revisions to the force field impacts sounds. Major Bug Fixes Fixed a bug that caused the game to crash when beating or losing level 15. Fixed a bug that caused Moogu that died in the air to leave floating corpses. Corpses will now fall to the ground where they can be interacted with. Fixed a bug that sometimes caused the Gassy Moogu jump ability to leave a big weird Moogu-centipede thingy on screen and also prevented the player from completing a level. Minor Bug Fixes Backspace key can no longer be used to exit out of menus. Now the player can delete characters in the description of the publish level form. Fixed a bug where the player could spawn multiple Gassy Moogu jump balloons at the same time.
