Download removed: this release is superseded by v1.2.1 - the grind balance meter fix for the wide aspect ratios and 120 fps with V-Sync OFF on any display. Only the newest release keeps its download.

Ultrawide, 16:10 and a FIELD OF VIEW option - plus a proper widescreen HUD and two bugs of the original game fixed.
Full list: CHANGELOG.md.
Download, update and Proton / Wine notes: README.

Highlights

  • ASPECT RATIO 16:10 and 21:9 (RECOMP OPTIONS): gameplay fills a Steam Deck / 16:10 monitor or an ultrawide
    screen - Hor+, you see more to the sides, nothing is stretched. Menus and movies stay 4:3 as in the original.
  • FIELD OF VIEW (RECOMP OPTIONS): ORIGINAL or +5 up to +30 degrees, applied at once.
  • Widescreen HUD: SCORE and the SPECIAL bar sit at the left edge, SWITCH at the right edge - in their original
    proportions instead of stretched with the picture.

New

  • High-score initials are remembered - the name entry starts with your last initials instead of AAA.
  • The mouse cursor hides itself over the game window and comes back when you move the mouse.
  • MOTION BLUR moved to RECOMP OPTIONS; RENDER RESOLUTION shows just the resolution and follows the aspect
    ratio you pick.

Fixed

  • Overwriting a save from OPTIONS -> MEMORY UNIT -> SAVE GAME now works (the original game refused it with
    "A file named ... already exists").
  • FPS COUNTER is back in RECOMP OPTIONS -> FRAME RATE.
  • 120 fps: a tapped ollie no longer jumps like a held one.

Notes

  • Updating: keep your saves\ folder (see the README).
  • Requirements: a graphics card with Vulkan 1.3 (see the README).
  • Known: Linux via Proton / Wine is best effort.
