Latest Steam announcements

  • Patch release: Restored achievements, fixed game speed - 16 June 2023

    This patch release comes with two fixes: Fixed game speed Before this patch you could make the game faster or slower by changing your monitor refresh rate. Now the update loop runs at a fixed 60fps regardless of monitor refresh rate. Everything visual will still look smoother if you play at 120/144hz or choppier if you play at 30hz, but the game will never speed up or slow down. Thanks to Archy, elnachoLV and yagueano1 from the Pichon Speedrunning community on Discord for finding and reporting the bug. This looked like an engine limitation but eventually a way to fix it was found. Restored achievements The previous version of Pichon was missing the Steamworks integrations, therefore being unable to show the overlay, as well as trigger achievements. This release fixes both issues. Thanks to FluffyFeLuca from our Discord community for reporting and testing.

  • Patch notes for Pichon 1.8.1 - 10 May 2022

    Some QoL changes: Added ESC to pause Added R to restart Fixed bug in Level Clear screen that allowed to skip many levels by clicking the "next" button more than once in a frame

  • v1.8.0 hits public beta, adds "Speedrun Mode" - 7 February 2022

    v1.8.0 is live on the public_beta branch and introduces some QoL improvements for speedrunners Changelog Input buffering fix You no longer have to wait till the level starts to press the arrow keys. Pichón should start moving even if the level starts with the arrow keys already pressed. Speedrun Mode: Click on the version number on the top left of the main menu to enable speedrun mode. Due to engine limitations the door opening cutscene would take longer for players using 144hz displays. Now when speedrun mode is enabled getting the last gem will just make a switch sound, without any cutscene, circumventing the issue. Finishing a level also immediately starts the next one. The level clear screen still runs, so autosplitting should still work. You can report any bugs on our Discord channel

  • New Beta: Speedrun Edition - 23 January 2022

    Version 1.7.2 is now in public beta with several fixes and improvements Built in support for LiveSplit Pichón has gathered a very active community of speedrunners, and they requested autosplit support. This is normally done by players by using tools like Cheat Engine to track the memory locations of certain variables. Unfortunately, due to how the engine manages memory, this approach was unfeasible. However, there is something called LiveSplit Server which enables games to command LiveSplit directly, no funny ram business involved. This version implements autosplit support via LiveSplit Server. Here's a tutorial on how to enable it: Thanks to Ayden and ElNachoLV from the LV Gang Discord server for suggesting the feature, and to Dark and everyone at #auto-splitters in the Speedrun Tool Development Discord server for the help. Multilanguage Support New list of supported languages: English…

  • Recommended Config for Steam Controller Added - 10 May 2018

    https://i.imgur.com/gt93rvC.png We've added a recommended configuration for Steam Controllers. Overall, it maps the way it works for uses of xbox 360 controllers, but with the added extra of being able to control Pichon with either trackpad. We've found the right trackpad to feel particularly good, especially when navigating through tricky sections. If you find a better config please share it with the community. We will happily make it official if it gets enough votes. We would also like to thank Francisco Demartino and Leonardo (Delek) Demartino from the Deflemask Tracker team for providing us with a Steam Controller. If you're into chiptune music creation, you can get Deflemask Tracker for free at http://www.deflemask.com/ Finally, we'd like to announce that Pichon will have achievements ready before the Summer Sale coming out next month.

  • Nintendo Switch Pro Controller Supported (beta) - 4 May 2018
