Quality Update #2
This new update brings some quality changes that were not integrated within the last 3 updates. This dates back to the Health and Quality update to the recent Mobile Port update. The patch notes and changes will be displayed below and go into detail of the changes made to the previous updates.
Health and Quality
The Health and Quality update brought a 3rd placement inside the local leaderboard while also adding a way to stay in the game longer.
- No changes to Health Packs
- We have added a 4th and 5th place that you can now take over and compete for. This also ties into the next section.
Global Leaderboard
Though a small addition (in terms of scale), the Global Leaderboard update brought a new way of competing between players through online communication.
- You will no longer automatically connect to the online servers unless you press the connect button.
- The leaderboard has also added a 4th and 5th place to go against more online players.
Mobile Port
Mobile Port update added a new way to play Bear in Mind the Bees by allowing you to play on mobile devices through download.
- HTML added support for mobile devices as a patch not too long after its initial release by automatically detecting your device. There is now a switch for if you want to play with a mouse and keyboard or touch controls, though it will still automatically detect it.
- We have moved the right touchpad a bit to the left and did the same for the left touchpad but instead of left, we moved it a bit to the right. It was too close to the edge.
Quality Update #2 (This update)
This new update is similar to the first update mentioned. It added some quality improvements though this one does not add any new features besides adding to previous ones. There are some notable additions to make-out here though.
- There is now a Tip System in which is displayed right under the title in the title-screen. This is meant to throw out any tips left out in the tutorial or to just inform players of what they can do.
- Throughout previous versions, you would see the text and certain UI sprites shake while moving in-game. This has now been fixed and will make it a bit easier to read as you play.
- Though this may be a downside for mobile players or maybe a plus side. The font in the tutorial was made smaller to fit more text and the tip font was lessened from previous iterations as well. This also goes for the Player ID text in the bottom right corner.
- One last thing to mention is that the queen has been calmed. You shouldn't be able to encounter her during your runs, despite what the tips may say :)
