- December 4th Update - 4 December 2022
Fixed a bug where the death xp screen and the post-credits logo wouldn't skip with Steam Input controllers. It's a PC-only update, pretty much useless for consoles.
- November 24 update - 24 November 2022
Changelog: - Fixed a bug where the game would randomly not launch sometimes, mostly on Windows. This was caused by a bug in the Steamworks extension that we use. - Rebuilt the macOS version again hopefully this fixes it :| By the way, the "secret platform" we were mentioning in our release notes was the Xbox One. We're preparing an Xbox One release of the game, expect news shortly (hopefully).
- November 17 Update - 16 November 2022
Changes: - Fixed a bug where you may start with -4 score in daily or weekly runs (this was an accident we swear) - Attempted to fix a bug where the floor might be blurry after "CHOOSE YOUR CURSE" screen (we are not sure why this happens, seems to happen more frequently on consoles, but we moved the fix to Steam as well) - Removed all attempts to uppercase the player name for the eastern font (foxlion intro) - Submitted this build (November 17 2022) for "???" to the "???" platform PS4 and Switch updates should come later this month, to keep the game on par with Windows/Linux/Deck/macOS/"???"
- November 16 Update - 16 November 2022
Changes: - Always use "eastern" font for drawing player names. - Fix erroneous notification in daily runs about "ur beating all". - Slightly reposition "ur beating" notifications. This update will be live on consoles this month.
- November 5th update - 4 November 2022
Fixes a crash in Steam Input when trying to do a haptic effect.
- November 3 Update - 3 November 2022
Changes: - Removed flags from the language selection menu. - Removed "NATIVE MOUSE" from settings, this only worked on 32-Bit Windows anyway, replaced with an option to enable free axes movement for the target crosshair in gamepad mode, enable this if you aim with a Steam Deck touchpad and the target will no longer be locked to a circle, it will be able to move freely inside it (and the radius is larger). - Upgraded the Steamworks extension to latest from YoYoGames. - Upgraded the Steamworks SDK to latest 1.55. - Upgraded to GameMaker 2022.9.1 runtime. - Rebuilt with latest Apple development tools (sorry about that, Apple forced our hand). This update actualizes Wally with builds Ver. 1.0.2 on Switch and Ver. 01.03 on PS4.
- 09 September Hotfix - 9 September 2022
PC only update that fixes a bug with Steam Input where if there we no gamepads connected before running the game it wouldn't read inputs from any gamepads at all and you had to restart the game to make gamepads work. Thanks to Austin from Valve! And yes, Wally is real.
- 07 September Update - 7 September 2022
A small update to bring everything in line with other platforms: - Fixed crashes in enable_joycon() for CO-OP. - Fixed a few Steam Input related quirks. - Fixed a possible video memory leak. - Force default to fullscreen 1280x720 on Steam Deck for compliance reasons. - Allow pausing in a few scenarios where it wasn't previously allowed. - Don't try to save the game on close now. (Steam will do this) - Added a new "Achievements" screen for folks who don't wish to use the overlay, you can track your progress there. Unlock pop-ups are still handled by Steam. - Some more weird fixes I can't remember. This update will be live on other platforms in a few weeks, we can't go any faster because of slow certifications there. Thank you for playing Wally and remember, Wally is real.
- A hotfix for macOS users only. - 23 June 2022
Sorry, it seems that we've forgot to upload a combined Intel + Apple Silicon build of our game ːsteamfacepalmː. This has been resolved, if you didn't get the update, try restarting your Steam Client. We apologize for this inconvenience. ːsteamhappyː We do care about macOS users.
- A bugfix update for Wally! - 18 June 2022

PS: Updated the macOS client icon, should be high quality™ now.
- MAC OS Support - 30 May 2022
Added macOS support to Wally and the FANTASTIC PREDATORS Enjoy!
- Fix an audio crash when no savedata is present. - 30 May 2022
A new small update has been released on the current branch which fixes an audio related game crash when no savedata is present at all, we're really sorry about that.
- Native Linux and Steam Deck support! - 29 May 2022
Hello, it's been a while huh. Wally and the FANTASTIC PREDATORS now has native Linux and Steam Deck support. Oh, also Steam Auto Cloud saves (set up to be cross-platform) and even Steam Input. These changes should allow for a smooth Steam Deck experience right out of the box, such as savedata syncing between your main machine and your Deck and also easy control rebinding. As for now, we don't have a "Steam Deck Verified" rating, but the Linux build has been tested to work on Ubuntu 64-Bit LTS releases. If anything, tell your Deck to run the default Linux build. To prevent any odd-looking behavior, the Linux version will always start in fullscreen if it's in Big Picture or Deck mode by default, even if you've synced savedata with your main machine. Thank you for playing Wally! (a macOS port is coming in the near future!)
- Final Update - 27 December 2021
I want to tell you something. It's 2018. I'm showing my Grandma the FOXLION thinking I'm some kind of big shot game developer. She smiles and tells me it looks nice. I'm so freaking happy. At the time my grandma had cancer. I didn't realize how bad it was, I probably would have used my time differently with her if I paid more attention to how bad she had it. She is my favorite person in the world and it meant the world to me to have her approval. She never was able to see the end of Wally. I wish she did, I think she would have been proud of the true ending. I would have really loved to have read her your comments. To see how many it resonated with so many people. When she died I was devastated. She's gone my family tried to convince me to be more religious and to think of her in heaven and in a better place but I don't want to think that. I'm scared that if I do I'll take things for gr…

When choosing the bomb barrel upgrade (your 3rd bomb throw contains 1 bonus bomb) You'll now have an onscreen indicator that you'll be shooting a bonus bomb so you don't have to manually track anymore. ......................... I want to make it harder to make it less consistent to find tons of bomb upgrades in Daily Runs. Since choosing a bomb upgrade is better than any other upgrade when you have to CHOOSE 1 option. It made choosing a…

- Hug Update - 17 September 2021
So you finally broke me down, all this, "BOON I want to hug backpack guy like all the time" to BOON when is the animated Wally TV show coming out!? It's like you're not even trying to stalk the Netflix Executives to pitch the Wally movie idea. Jesus Christ!

Changes you can now Major highlight You can now hug backpack guy in the regular shops After finally working on this game for years, I cannot believe I missed such a vital and crucial detail to make the game work.
