| # Otto Matic changelog | ||
|
|
||
| - **4.0.0** (Aug 2021) - Updated the game to run on modern systems | ||
| ## **4.0.1** (Jan 2023) | ||
|
|
||
| Quality of life improvements: | ||
| - Better Italian translation thanks to @orazioedoardo (#2) | ||
| - New settings: infobar centering and scaling (#17) | ||
| - New setting: toggle automatic alignment of the camera behind Otto (I like to turn this off when playing with a controller) | ||
| - For the completionists out there, the bonus screen now says if you've rescued all humans in the level | ||
| - Hold down the jump button to fast-forward through bonus screen tallies | ||
| - Cheat code now gives ammo for all weapons, have fun trying out the growth potion in hilarious places (#3) | ||
| - Alternate cheat code for keyboards with bad rollover (#12) | ||
| - Toggle fullscreen with Alt+Enter | ||
| - Restored monochrome anaglyph setting | ||
| - macOS: Prevent quitting the game by mistake if fat-fingering ⌘Q or ⌘W | ||
| - macOS: Retina support, preferred display setting | ||
|
|
||
| Gameplay: | ||
| - Saucer abductions are now fairer. The saucer won't come if a closed gate stands between Otto and the human, or if Otto is unable to move freely due to level-specific gimmicks (zipline, water skiing, teleportation, etc). A fair amount of humans were previously impossible to rescue; it is now possible to rescue them all, in theory. | ||
| - Fix flaky fence collisions at high framerates — keeps critical enemies from getting out of bounds (Tractor, etc.) (#15) | ||
| - Fix flaky platform physics at high framerates (especially in level 3 at more than 130 fps) | ||
| - Non-vsync framerate cap raised to 500 FPS (up from 100 previously) thanks to stabler physics | ||
|
|
||
| Cosmetic: | ||
| - Seamless terrain texturing | ||
| - Buttery-smooth motion of spline-bound humans, enemies, platforms and boats along their spline | ||
| - When escaping a level, align Otto to the center of the ramp so he doesn't clip through the hull once inside the rocket | ||
| - Fix rough cropping of rocket flame (especially apparent in bonus screen) | ||
| - Starfield now visible through rocket's interior windows in bonus screen | ||
| - Fix graphical glitches when using supernova | ||
| - Raise particle system caps (fixes missing jump-jet smoke in busy areas) | ||
| - Fix jitter in particle orientation (especially apparent in smoke/steam emanating from the ground) | ||
|
|
||
| Level-specific tweaks: | ||
| - Level 1: Reset tractor to initial position when player dies as long as the metal gate is shut | ||
| - Level 1: Fix lopsided tractor back wheels | ||
| - Level 1: Fix softlock if Otto runs out of jump-jet fuel in onion area (to continue, Otto had to die and restart at checkpoint 1) | ||
| - Level 2: Fix softlock if Otto runs out of jump-jet fuel at checkpoints 6 and 7 (to continue, you had start the whole level over) | ||
| - Level 2: Otto can now stand on top of BubblePump plungers instead of clipping through them | ||
| - Level 4: Fix some teleporters unexpectedly catching Otto as he walks out | ||
| - Level 4: Restored 2 teleporters that were removed way back in version 1.0.2 for technical reasons (#20) | ||
| - Level 5: Fix inconsistent belly slide force after rocket sled (this sometimes caused Otto to slip into the bottomless pit unfairly) | ||
| - Level 5: Camera attempts to be smarter than to stare at the floor when Otto falls through a trapdoor | ||
| - Level 5: Limit amount of enemy bumper cars, making the bumper car zones less tedious to complete — like original PowerPC version when played on a CPU weaker than a G4 | ||
| - Level 6: Fix missing GiantLizards and Flytraps (which are critical to level flow) due to enemy caps getting hit more often than in 1.0.0 (#10) | ||
| - Level 6: GiantLizard won't try to chase the player through an unbroken wooden gate (this used to cause ugly clipping) | ||
| - Level 6: Fix scale of tossed weapon when player is giant | ||
| - Level 8: Tone down cacophony when getting hit by a SwingerBot | ||
| - Level 9: Stop Otto's walk anim once he's inside the rocket | ||
|
|
||
| Technical improvements: | ||
| - Reuse a single GL draw context throughout the game | ||
| - Better fade out implementation | ||
| - Fix rare crash caused by accumulating too many open file handles (especially on macOS during a long play session) | ||
| - Stability fixes in audio mixer | ||
| - Reduce memory allocations in-game | ||
| - Update SDL to 2.26.2 (notably fixes v-sync in macOS Ventura) | ||
| - New build target: Linux/aarch64 (ARM64) | ||
|
|
