What's good drunkards?! This is a small patch that adds Godot Mod Loader Support to BEERCRUSH! Now you can make mods and share them with other alcoholics on the Steam Workshop!
Please consult this guide to get started!! And if you have any questions feel free to ask in the discord! Keep in mind that mods disable uploading scores to Steam (but you can still unlock stuff and earn achievements).
Now here are the patch notes:
Added Godot Mod Loader Support.
Added an Epilepsy Warning when starting the game for the first time (disappears after tutorial is completed).
Fixed being able to click through the quit pop-up, and start runs with it on screen.
Cordially,
LOWLIGHT TEAM

Hello Alcoholics! Another patch has hit the Steam database, with improvements to controller support and bug fixes!
Massive improvements to controller support:
Added a new page in the settings specifically for controllers (Settings > Controls > Gamepad Settings)
Features a dropdown for vertical camera movement options and sliders for the minigame head speed, cursor speed, and joystick deadzones.
Triggers can now be set as inputs (i.e. you can set slide to RT/LT).
Fixed dropdowns not working with controller.
Fixed controller not working with John's TV.
Note: BEERCRUSH was designed for mouse and we still highly recommend playing with that instead of a controller. But if you must, it should work a lot better now.
Fixed issue where sometimes bottlecap icons would be stuck to your cursor when selecting one in a run.
Fixed bug where John's corpse could drink beer.
Fixed bug where there would be no door kick SFX in Homebrew Wasted.
Fixed an OOB bug in The Abyss.
Regards,
LOWLIGHT TEAM

Hello once again beer addicts!! First of all, the Steam Soundtrack has FINALLY been updated with the new songs!! Same with the Bandcamp Album! Go take a listen!! (It'll be on YouTube very soon too!)
Also, 1.1.3!!
New Legislation Passed in City World:
Slide Windows will now only appear before a gap, preventing incredibly hard to avoid damage when a Door was next.
Doors are now guaranteed to appear after a Jump Window (no more Slide Windows), preventing a jump --> slide combo that may have been too tricky.
Adjusted number of tiles before a gap to be a hard-set 4 tiles. Previously was picked randomly between 2 and 4, leading to very long chains of obstacles if you were unlucky.
Adjusted streetlamps to be more out of the way.
Added a texture to the archway.
Increased Maximum Mouse Sensitivity from 2.0 to 4.0. Also, you can now see what the exact value is.
Added new option for Mouse Acceleration (off by default).
Fixed NERD Steam Achievement not unlocking (again).
Minor fixes to the CRT Border Unlock:
Now shows a notification when unlocking (just like other borders).
Unlocks immediately upon scoring 25 points, instead of after losing with 25+ points.
Fixed issue where scores with times greater than 30 minutes would not show up on the leaderboards.
Fixed more issues with a certain alternative world.
Platonically,
LOWLIGHT TEAM

We at LOWLIGHT TEAM have finally created the ultimate update to a video game.
Hired a Hollywood celebrity voice actor for Kyle to increase immersion.
This is activated by enabling Kyle Mode in Settings > Other.
Additionally, Kyle is now green to increase immersion.
Fixed issues with large numbers in the Stats Menu.
Fixed issues in a certain alternative world.
Reverted Kyle's skin tone from green back to pink/purple (too immersive).
Say Hi to Kyle for us,
- LOWLIGHT TEAM

Hello again drunkards! After a mildly rocky start to the update, we have a minor update to patch up some remaining small issues.
Added an option to delete your save file. This only appears in Settings > Other while on the Main Menu.
Only deletes your progress in-game, not any highscores or Steam Achievements.
Extended the leaderboard textbox to allow for six-digit numbers (INSANE!! WELL DONE!!)
Added a Tab to the BEERMAN to make it easier to see.
Fixed the background of John's TV appearing as a black void.
Fixed the CRT Border unlocking at 5 rounds instead of 25.
Fixed HELL minigames having no audio during Kyle's Brew.
Fixed some issues with the Jetpack in HELL.
Fixed Casino Cards not having a sound effect in Bottomless.
Fixed the text on the Quit menu.
Fixed a typo in a death quote and in the Settings.
Added a check to unlock John's Brew if Bottomless is already unlocked. (A bug that was introduced via a hotfix)
Once again thanks for all of the support and for reporting bugs!! And keep chugging!
Lovingly,
- LOWLIGHT TEAM
