Major Update - v1.3.0


Note: the update is ready, but I'll wait until the jam is over to make it available for everyone in order to not risk being de-qualified. In the meantime, you can all play version 1.2.5, which is the one submitted to DinoJam2!

=================================

So, now that DinoJam2 reviewing phase is over we can finally update the game to 1.3.0. We've been working this past week almost non-stop to bring some requested quality of life features, and along with some bugfixes and balance adjustments we also decided to add TWO brand new dinosHerrerasaurus and Chasmosaurus

Here's the Changelog for v1.3.0:

Bugfixes:

  • Minor performance improvements on deck/box/collection screens;
  • Fixed misaligned text on battle screen; 
  •  Fixed misaligned volcano bar during duels; 
  •  Fixed a bug that would soft lock the player when there were no cards remaining in their hands;

Adjustments:

  • Adjusted the attack and defense power of some cards;
  • Adjusted some cards drop rates from booster packs;
  • Adjusted the description of the booster packs to include the type color of the featured dinosaurs;
  • Changed the name of "Booster Pack 1" to "March of the Giants";
  • Changed the possibility of obtaining Sauroposeidon from the "Wrath of the King" booster pack, replaced with a new dinosaur (you can still obtain it in March of the Giants);
  • Changed the possibility of obtaining Megalosaurus from "March of the Giants", replaced with a new dinosaur (you can still obtain it in Wrath of the King);
  • Improved the card burning animation;
  • Adjusted the chances when rolling defense dice;
  • Improved enemy AI;

Additions:

  • Added a tutorial screen for the Card Shop;
  • Text showing if you're in Deck/Box/Collection screen added;
  • Collection now shows completion percentage;
  • You can now convert spare cards into Dino Points;
  • Added an option to export/import old save files (you should use that option if you experience crashes when using an old save in a newer version of the game)*;
  • Added a new currency: Amber - Earn Amber by defeating opponents, the harder the opponent the more Amber you get;
  • Added two new premium booster packs;
  • Added two new dinosaur cards - Herrerasaurus and Chasmosaurus;
  • Added more visual feedback to actions that fill the volcano;
  • Added sorting options to the Box screen;
  • Added a visual effect on top of the attacked card when an attack is successful;
  • Added a direct attack mechanic - When there's no card in a side of the field the other player can directly attack the opponent, adding the result to their own score;
  • Added the possibility to gain a reduced amount of Dino Points from losing;
  • Added a button to the Settings menu on the Stage Selection Screen;
  • Added text speech to NPCs during a Duel;
  • Added something special for when you complete 100% of the collection.


* Regarding Importing/Exporting saves files: If you want to keep your save used in an older version you can export it and then import to a newer save file in order to avoid glitches doing the following:

  1. Open your old save file in game;
  2. Go to the options screen (access it via the button on the stage selection screen);
  3. Click on "Export" and then "Yes";
  4. Return to Title Screen;
  5. Create a new save slot (you can ovewrite the old save file, just make sure you exported it first);
  6. Go to the options screen again (access it via the button on the stage selection screen);
  7. Click on "Import" and then "Yes".

If you followed the steps correctly you should now have your entire deck, collection, currencies and progress carried over to the new save file. Do note that play time is not carried over to the new save!
