- Screenshake Update and Secret Level(?) - 19 October 2024
Screenshake update and secret level Hey! Marcos here! On this update, I'm adding an option on the main menu to disable/enable screenshake. In several parts of the game, the screen shakes slightly giving a more impactful effect, like when you teleport, step on an interactive object or when Clawbert's Dad strikes with his claw. Some people find this effect uncomfortable, so I'm adding an option to disable it! Just go to the game's Main Menu, then options, then select Toggle Screenshake. One other thing on this update is that the game now has a secret level. That's all I'm gonna say. It's very, very well hidden. Obviously there won't be any achievements tied to this secret level. It is so well hidden that I expect it will take a long time for even a single person to find it. I added this kind of as a joke, so if I were you, I wouldn't get too hung up on this. Just look for it if you are a…
- 🔑 The Key Update now available! - 7 October 2024
Key Markers on the Map! Hey! Marcos here bringing another update for Dimensional Animals! The latest update brings you a new map marker, for keys! Do you see it? In every spot where there's an unused key, there will be a marker. This is specially useful for two situations: 1 - When you die, every key that you had in you returns to where it was originally. Previously, there wasn't a marker there to help you, so you had to rely on memory to find the key again. Now, though, there will be a marker reminding you where it is! 2 - When you change locations through a portal, again, every key that was on you returns to its origin. The marker will be very helpful here as well! Gone are the days of being stuck on a locked door which you don't know where a key is at. Please note two additional IMPORTANT info about the key markers: 1 - When you get close to a key, the marker will be added automatica…
- The Dimensional Animals DEMO now saves your progress! - 31 July 2024
Hey guys, Marcos here! Today I launched an update adding automatic demo save transferring. It works this way: if you play the demo first, then buy the game and launch it, it will keep the game progress from the demo. This way you can play the full demo without worries, knowing that progress will be kept. It won't work, though, if you already have the full game and then play the demo. I don't know why anyone would do that hahahah, but I found it interesting to point out. Because of Steam Cloud Save, the progress made in the demo won't be kept if the full game already has a game in progress. I hope that if you've played the demo and enjoyed it, you'll give the full game a shot! There's a ton of new adventures for you to experience with your pet team, challenges to defeat and secrets to uncover! Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
- Small Update - Performance Improvements - 24 July 2024
Hello! Marcos here. This is just a quick update making the performance on the game a little better. There were some unoptimal code involving the minimap and the trees from Cobalt Forest that are now fixed! Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
- June 22nd Update! - 22 June 2024
Hey, guys! Marcos here. Today I bring a bug fix and a new addition to the game's exploration! - Fixed a bug found with the yellow sprite that appears on the map, showing you where there's an item. In any room with 2 or more upgrades, if you collected some of them but not all and then died, upon returning to the room to collect the rest would cause the yellow sprite to not disappear. It's fixed now! - And added a new map connection in Nightmare Land that allows you to climb the big falling area just before the boss fight. Once the boss is defeated, all these charge drones will be activated, allowing you to climb back upwards by using the frog skill! Previously there were no charge drones, so the only way to go back up there was through severe backtracking. It was pretty inconvenient, but it's now fixed! If you don't know which area I'm talking about, don't worry about it, this climb is v…
- Obscure Bug Fixes :O - 18 June 2024
Hey guys! Marcos here with another patch for DImensional Animals. Every game has very obscure bugs, some that are difficult to execute. These ones are very difficult to fix as well, since I only TODAY managed to replicate them here to start investigating where the issue might be hahaha So let's see the fixes: When pressing TAB or SELECT to open the minimap, if you remained holding a direction on the d-pad, analog stick or keyboard, the minimap would keep moving to the chosen direction while the menu was opening. This didn't cause any issues to the game, but was not right visually, so it's fixed now During a boss fight, if you decided to open your map on the menu and move it around, once the boss was defeated and your minimap restored back on the screen it would be in the wrong position. Opening your map menu and closing it would restore it to the correct position, so this is more of a v…
- UPDATE! Upwards Teleport Fix + Other fixes - 17 June 2024
Hey guys! Bringing you another patch for Dimensional Animals. This one is aimed at fixing these issues: In certain framerates, when using the upwards teleport you'd freeze in mid-air. Sliding through the air like life has no problems. It is now fixed and also has a new effect, the game will enter slow motion for a fraction of a second to give you more time to think on your next aerial move. Sometimes when grabbing a diamond or orb, the minimap symbol wouldn't disappear. With the current update it shouldn't happen anymore! Sometimes the cursor on the main menu or pause menu would go CRAZY when using a gamepad's analog stick. It is now fixed! Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
- Second Boss Rework Update - 14 June 2024
Hello, everyone! Marcos here bringing another update to Dimensional Animals. This is a big one, one that I feel we can call a major update, since it brings a rework to a boss in the game! Don't worry, he still has the same attacks, but they feel a little better to play against. So let's see what has been reworked on Cespuglio Bolshoi, the boss fight in Cobalt Forest: 1 - Prank Attack The attack where the screen turns black, the boss disappears, you change position and minions are spawned. My intention with this attack was always for it to feel like a prank. Since the boss shares similarities with the bush enemies from this level, I wanted one attack to have the same feel as the bushes. Some people didn't like the black screen transition, as it felt too abrupt and too untied to the boss. So I changed the transition for it to look more like he is causing it. It turned out like this: 2 - B…
- One last update for the day! - 11 June 2024
Hey guys, Marcos here again with one last update for today! - In the Cobalt Forest boss fight in the attack that he hides and teleports the player to a random position, when the boss teleported you to the left of the screen it had a chance of being way too close to an enemy bush. I made it so that you're positioned further to the left, a little farther from the first enemy bush, making it easier to avoid damage Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
- Bug Fixes and Quality of Life Improvements - 11 June 2024
Hey guys! Marcos here, bringing a batch of small bug fixes and game improvements. - On rare occasions the bubble enemy from world 3 would deal damage while sliding to a direction after being hit for the first time - Not a bug but a few people requested it so I added. You can now navigate menus using the analog stick on gamepads as well as the d-pad. Previously you could only use the d-pad - On regular occasions jumping with the frog from a wall would cause him to have no horizontal movement, which could lead to taking unfair damage on some situations - Spinning with the duck and then teleporting would sometimes take you to the wrong teleport direction Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
- Small bug fix in Cespuglio Bolshoi (Cobalt Forest boss) - 8 June 2024
Hey guys! Marcos here with a bug fix that is now available on the current update. - Fixed a bug where you could get stuck in the wall in a specific situation with Cespuglio Bolshoi (Cobalt Forest boss fight). When he hides in his bush, turns the screen black and spawns minions, there was a situation where he could teleport you inside the left side wall If you find a bug in the game, you can always contact me via Community Center or email at [email protected] Thanks!
- Small fix + Skippable Intro Cutscene - 8 June 2024
Hey guys. Just made a small update to the game! - The intro comic book is now skippable. If you hold the JUMP button, the cutscene will speed up but there will also be a progress bar to skip it completely. If you hold for about two seconds it will skip right into the gameplay. - The blowfishes on Pristine Beach stopped animating. Fixed that, they're animating again now. Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
- Few bug fixes - 7 June 2024
Hey guys! Today we have just two small fixes: - Fixed a bug where sometimes, when touching a spike that sends you back to the solid ground where you were before hitting it, you would return with the character completely frozen - Fixed an issue where the rematch against the Cobalt Forest boss would have the area music and the boss music playing at the same time That's it! If you find issues or bugs, let me know! You can post them in the game's community Thanks for playing Dimensional Animals!
- We were New and Trending! + Bug Fixes - 6 June 2024
We were on New and Trending! Hello, guys! Marcos here from Dimensional Animals development team. Dimensional Animals got into the New and Trending tab in Brazil! It's not there anymore (I think), but even if it only lasted a few hours, it was amazing seeing the game on the store's front page. Thanks for being a part of it and helping it happen! Bug Fixes It's literally impossible to not have bugs on a game's release. So there you go, a batch of bug fixes just released on the last patch: Fixed some tiles that were misplaced Fixed a bug where, on Gamepad, you could go through doors by looking to the opposite side of the door, pressing the teleport button and very quickly switching the direction you're looking In the pause menu in Portuguese, changed "Trocar Trajes" to "Trocar Cores" Fixed a bug where, if you fought Joana's rematch before her regular fight, she would jump out of the screen…
- Small Update - 6 June 2024
Hey, guys! Thanks for the amazing support Dimensional Animals is getting! This patch fixed only one thing: - There was an issue with very specific people that was breaking their saves. There's a fix for it now There are a few known bugs that I'll be adressing later today: Sometimes the character fusing cutscene may bug if you spin with the duck before entering the scene One attack of the last boss may bug in some occasions If you find more stuff to fix, please let me know by writing it down in the game community discussion, or by typing a comment here Thanks, and have fun with Dimensional Animals!
