Fixed bugs (can't upload a fix yet tho) + Other info


I've managed to fix most of the bugs people have been encountering, as well as found new bugs and fixed them as well. I however can't upload the update until the jam voting ends.

Down below is more technical info about what went wrong, for anyone interested!

- The "play again" bug -

This bug was a pretty quick fix: The way my games currently handle storing game variables (such as "how many items the player has collected") is by storing it all in a class i call Global, which can be accessed anywhere within the game. That, however creates an issue where all of those variables keep the same values from when the game ran/ended; so "how many items the player has collected" would be 5 when the player decides to play the game again, instead of 0 (what it's supposed to be). I am not very sure of a solution to this issue, other than making a "reset all variables" function. That is however what i ended up doing, it isn't ideal but it works and i'll have to figure out a proper solution for my future games.

- The "speedrunners are too good" bug -

This one's quite funny, i was trying to beat trough my game as fast as i possibly could in order to get to the end since i noticed another bug and wanted to take a look if i could trigger it again, and the game didn't check if all of the items were collected when you threw in the last item in the car; it only checked a variable that increased every time a drone attempted to grab an item. Essentially, if you were too fast you'd end up softlocking yourself XD

- Missing sound effects -

I haven't fixed this one. I have been avoiding this one like it's the plague. The main issue comes from a potential bug with the game engine I'm using (the Godot 4.0 beta 3). Essentially, the feature to load assets (specifically audio files) at runtime simply doesn't work. It works while running the game in the editor, but not once the game has been exported. I'm not fully sure whenever it's a Godot 4 beta 3 issue, as the asset-loading system i wrote is pretty janky. But I'll have it fixed eventually.


These are all the bugs I've noticed so far, and most of them have been fixed once voting ends.
