Version 1.1.5 patch notes

16 LUGLIO

Hello everyone!

Version 1.1.5 is out now!
This is a patch with a lot of performance improvements and a ton of small fixes and tweaks everywhere in the game. After having released Figment for the Switch last month, we are now taking all the optimizations made for that platform and applying them to the PC, Mac, and Linux release. Besides better performance across the board, we’ve revamped the level loading system so going between levels should be a lot faster in most situations.

Below you can find a more detailed and extensive list of changes made to Figment.

- Bedtime Digital Games

General Changes
Many performance optimizations
Controller Vibration overhaul. Vibrations are now a lot more prominent in the game. There’s a slider in the Gameplay options menu which controls the intensity of the vibrations. Note that you can also turn them off completely
Improved loading time
Reduced stutter when traveling on moving platforms
Added an option for controlling video overscan
Improved Chinese localizations

Bug Fixes
Adjusted various colliders on gas clouds to be more forgiving before hurting the player.
Fixed an issue where Spitting Plants in The Symphonic Lobe would stop shooting if Dusty was hit by them
Fixed a bug where you could sometimes take damage from the Tentacle Plant in the Garden of Creativity even when out of its range
Fixed a bug where you could respawn the Tentacle Plant in the Garden of Creativity prematurely if you walked out if its area and then back in
Fixed a bug where a platform would not rotate to the correct position when returning to the area after completing the game
Refined the save point for the last Plague fight in Freedom Promenade, so you don’t respawn in the middle of his dialogue after dying
Made the animation when Dusty is fired from the Catapults a lot smoother
Made the start of the animation when Dusty is sliding down the Snake Tails a lot smoother
Fixed an issue where it was possible to activate four of the organ's keys at once in Composition Row
Fixed an issue where new objectives didn’t show up between exiting Outer Cerebrum and entering Clockwork Town
Refined when and where you can interact with Enigma Boxes in Clockwork Town
Fixed an bug where you could start the second Spider Queen encounter twice, breaking the cutscene and sometimes your progress
Simplified the third-last boss encounter towards the end of the game
Various navigation and collider tweaks
Tweaked a bunch of problematic checkpoints
Many other small tweaks and fixes

Version 1.0.0.3 patch notes

23 NOVEMBRE 2017

Hello friends!

Version 1.0.0.3 is now out!
The issues where some achievements would fail to unlock properly have been fixed for both new and old players, meaning that if you have already completed an achievement but it didn’t unlock, it should now unlock automatically the next time you launch Figment. We’ve also worked on a lot of behind-the-scenes system improvements, which should result in a smoother gameplay experience.

- Bedtime Digital Games

Severe Issues Fixed
Fixed an issue where the two Kettle houses in The Bright Planes and Gardens of Creativity would not increment the progress of the Seeking Inspiration achievement
Fixed an issue where two rats in Gardens of Creativity would not increment the progress of the Exterminator achievement when killed
Fixed an issue where some Remembranes would not correctly increment the progress of certain achievements related to them

General Changes
Updated many internal systems with bug fixes and performance improvements
Fixed an issue where it was possible to get off any elevator while it was traveling, trapping you since the elevator was stuck in the other position
Fixed several issues where the camera would make sudden jerks instead of being smooth
Fixed an issue where one of the Spider Queen’s boss mechanics would activate when entering The Clock Tower
Fixed an issue where gas walls were still present when entering The Bright Planes again after having defeated the Plague
Fixed a bug that could occur at the Brass Bridge in Overpass of Originality where it would not accept any trumpet pistons after the first one

28 SETTEMBRE 2017

Hey all!

Severe Issues Fixed
The "Brass Bridge" will now accept your trumpet pistons, even if you had encountered this bug before patch 1.0.0.1
Corrupted save games are converted to working save games. Some players with previously corrupted save games will face a slight setback, however, all Remembranes are retained and can be viewed in the hub

Fixed an issue where you would not always hear the audio from a Remembrane
Reduced some stutter in one of Dusty's animations

Fixed an issue where the handle in the tree in The Bright Planes was a bit too hard to hit
Fixed a bug where you could activate buttons on the flying books in Ascension and Anchorage even if they were already pressed
Fixed a collider in The Summit
Improved the way English song subtitles are displayed to avoid typographic orphans
Fixed various instances of visual glitches and flickering shadows

Known Issues
After downloading the patch, “Restart Level” will be unavailable from the menu until you have entered another level once
The camera can move incorrectly when revisiting the Clock Tower after having defeated the Spider Queen

Hi everyone!

Thank you all so much for the kind words about Figment we have seen around the internet!

This patch contains mostly minor bug fixes, with a few big fixes for an unfortunate few players.
We are very sorry about any bugs that you may have experienced in the game.

We have also seen some discussions about the translations and their quality. We will have further information about this at a later time, but please do not hesitate to give us feedback if you see something. We appreciate it greatly.

Severe Issues Fixed
Fixed an issue where restarting a level could result in save data corruption. After updating, the bug will still be triggerable until leaving your current level
Fixed a bug that could occur at the Brass Bridge in Overpass of Originality where it would not accept any trumpet pistons after the first one
We have prioritized getting this patch out fast to prevent more people from experiencing these severe issues, so the problems above are fixed for people who have not currently experienced them.
