Hi,

Let me post the patches logs :) The GOG team is currently busy updating to 1.03, which fixes a potential crash a few players experienced while completing the prologue.


PROLOGUE 1.01
--------------------
- Translations fixes.
- Fixed bug : Border Post camera could hit itself
- Some keys were not labelled/detected in the redefine key menu.
- Resetting to default keys while in the menu caused the menu to disappear.

- Fixed issue with enemies changing direction while jumping.
- Fixed rat chief could be damaged by its own rocks.

- Fixed rat chief special attack bowlders size was increased.
- Fixed rocks shadow display didn't take account of floor height position.
- Increased defense and probability of attack for the rat chief.

- Missing lipsync on the map screen.
- In pharmacy, clicking on exit after choosing several products would exit dialogue abruptly.


PROLOGUE 1.02
--------------------
- Improved Dart rat front sprite.
- Fixed bug : clicking on the barrier in the last sewers room while being on bottom floor would cause Brok disappearing and being stuck.
- Fixed bug : the special attack when used in rooms with higher platforms like the pyramid server room (Brok would go on the highest platform and disappear)
- Fixed bug : pressing shoulder buttons on the demo end screen would display the menu.
- Fixed bug : doing a jumpkick on the merchant stall in Sector 56X would leave Brok stuck in jumpkick position.
- Fixed bug : we could hit Sin & the glasses from behind the wall in bathroom

high rated
PROLOGUE 1.04
--------------------
- Fixed bug : Player choices for prologue were not properly sent. Also it could potentially crash when attempting to send them (which happens after finishing the prologue).
- Fixed bug : Food bought after losing three times (on gameover screen) would not stay in inventory if player still had at least one food item.
- Fixed bug : If trying to leave garage but we need to talk more to Shay, Brok collisions were disabled until player exits the room.

- Added 2 fanarts


PROLOGUE 1.05
--------------------
- Fixed bug : After exiting the bathroom, it wasn't possible to interact with Sin unless going back to/from fight mode
- Gun in last sewers room difficult to see - increased contrast and added outline
- Added a minimum width to the speech bubbles so they're easier to see when dialog text is very short


PROLOGUE 1.06
--------------------
- Fixed bug : Save confirmation when overwriting a manual save was missing.
- Fixed bug : Closing summary restarted the game but kept all variables, meaning starting a new game immediately after would keep the inventory and actions already done.
- Fixed visual bug when exiting game.
- Fixed bug : "final boss of the prologue" could sometimes throw an attack while hit by the player.
- Fixed bug : "sprite not found" could appear in the player contacts. (NB : it will persist in the existing save files prior patch but is only a minor display issue)
- Fixed bug : if for some reason items we threw in the sewers were not picked up the first time, player was unable to progress.
- Fixed bug : Using the wet "Pred" toy on pipe mail when the Tribot cop is already gone would crash.
- Slightly increased time between attacks of the "final boss of the prologue" to make this fight less frustrating (in easy and normal difficulty)
- After losing a fight 3 times, the game was supposed to offer player to change to an easier difficulty - but due to a bug it only worked with "hard" difficulty.
- Removed chapter select - it wasn't supposed to be accessible in the prologue.

PROLOGUE 1.07

- Fixed potential bug : Events were not blocked in-between loading a save and the room switch.
- Fixed collisions in the first sewers area which were a bit buggy.
- Added small cutscene to make the alternative way to defeat the rats a little more obvious.

PROLOGUE 1.08
--------------------

It consumes 10% of the player health.
This is the only action that can be triggered when the player is currently being hit.
