Cricket: Jae's Really Peculiar Game is 2 WEEKS OLD!

Hey all!

Wow, two weeks (and change) have already passed, and it's been a pretty wild ride! I wanna take a moment to thank everyone who has picked up a copy of Cricket: Jae's Really Peculiar Game thus far, and a double thanks to all of you who have left a review! Once again, your feedback is welcome and has identified many things for us to fix up. We're really happy about the positive reception to the game, with us finally getting a "Positive" rating here on Steam!

I'm really happy to be have seen messages from folks who have enjoyed the gameplay and story so far, it really warms my heart after a great many years of work. Not saying you have to send more, but I have appreciated all the messages!

With that, let's talk about...

[h2]FEATURES ROADMAP[/h2]

I want to be transparent with you all about what's being worked on currently. This game is coded up by one person (me) so I appreciate your patience as I handle each of these things one by one:

  • Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One ports
  • Playstation 5 crash bug deep dive (it's a nasty one)
  • Playstation 4 port
  • Remappable controls (all systems)
  • Language select menu
  • Quicksaving

[h2]FIXES SO FAR[/h2]

Thanks to all of your input, we've been able to implement the following changes and fixes:

  • Added more save locations (More than double!)
  • Options menu in the Main Menu
  • Reduced enemy spawn frequency
  • Fixed various NPC and cutscene display issues in later parts of the game
  • Added "Press to Sprint" option to the Options menu. Now you don't have to hold down the sprint button if you don't want to.
  • Added "Win Button" option to the Options menu. We heard you about it being on by default, so we moved it away.
  • Memory optimizations
  • Placed missing collisions
  • Notoriety meter display cleanups in various menus
  • Overall game stability is MUCH better

Feel free to make suggestions as you see fit in the Steam Forums, I check it regularly.
