- Ceasing Development of Fiasco Restoration and Repair - 27 February 2023
Hello, Unfortunately I bring sad news today. We regret to announce that we will be halting production of Fiasco Restoration and Repair. Situations have changed and we no longer have the resources to devote to the project. As of right now we have no plans to return to it. We’re very sorry to leave it here but the demo version will remain playable for free. A big thank you to those of you that followed us along the way!

- Update 0.0.1 - 15 March 2022
Update 0.0.1 This update features a lot of quality of life additions and changes. There are also a ton of fixes for a bunch of reported problems. Thank you for all your feedback! Gameplay Smooth Placement Props will gently glide from your hand to the spot you are placing the object. This also prevents objects from getting stuck in the environment. Brush Stability Improved painting for small brushes including pencils, pens, and markers. No more dotted lines! Improved accuracy on wide brushes (wall brush, duster, and dad's toothbrush). Pouring Improvements Fixed containers not pouring all of their contents. Containers can now be entirely emptied instead of always having just one more drop. UI Additions and Improvements New Held Item UI Certain items will display their contents so you no longer have to guess how much paint is left on your brush. The indicator also changes color to match th…
- Demo Hotfix - 28 February 2022
Fiasco Restoration and Repair hotfix Patchnotes Physics and Stability Fixed an issue causing containers to send objects through the floor. Reduced container hitboxes to prevent objects from clipping into them when held. Loading and Performance Fixed a bug that caused the game to get stuck on the loading screen (Antonio shouldn't take forever to get Valentine's Day candy). Controls and Gameplay Some items, such as sprayers, now place themselves a slight distance from their target to make aiming easier. Readjusted the size of brushes to match the actual size of the brush. Pens and pencils no longer mark the canvas from a foot away. Increased the amount of paint brushes can hold. Paint and Liquid Fixed an issue causing liquids to appear more diluted when mixed. Misc. Added UI scaling. This should stop buttons from going offscreen when playing in ultrawide resolutions. Changed the color of…
