Hi all,
A new build of TY2 (r3499_v108) has been released.
The major addition to this build is the new Hardcore Mode!
In Hardcore mode we've removed all bonus lives and respawning - you literally have <one> life to get through the game. If you do happen to lose a life; we helpfully reset your save game and restart your adventure.
We've added two new leaderboards (Hardcore Game Complete and Hardcore 100% Game Complete) and two new achievements (Completing the game in Hardcore and 100% Completing the Game in Hardcore) for your troubles!
We hope that this provides a little bit of replayability for you all (and maybe bragging rights!). And cheats are disabled in Hardcore mode :)
Additionally, we're happy to announce that TY3 has been released in to Early Access! As part of TY3's release, TY1 is currently on sale to celebrate; and if you own TY1 or TY2, you should receive an extra bonus discount for buying TY3 during this first week of Early Access - as we've increased the launch discount to 22% across the board!

- ART: Made grill texture in the Never Never doublesided, so it draws correctly from both directions.
- ART: clamped edge pixels of the mouse icons to stop icon corruption
- ART: Increased the number of maximum explosions that can render at once
- ART: Disabled timed-bonus Christmas skin costume
- ART: Re-added support for grass overlays
- CART RACING: Tweaked the difficulty of the AI to try to ensure people don't get stuck losing races, forever.
- CONTROLS: Fixed a force clamping bug where large movement forces can change your direction when only one axis is clamped.
- CONTROLS: Fixed support for sneaking when using KB&M (SHIFT key by default)
- GAMEPLAY: Fixed the "react to bunyip punches only" flag, so that the vehicles blocking the A-path in the first level can't be blown up by rangs, causing a non-progression issue
- MISC: Crash fixes for various thread-safe issues
- MISC: Prevent mouse from changing button selection or clicking on buttons while rebinding an action to fix a crash.
- RANGS: Fixes to the doomerang controls
- UI: Moved some overlapping arrow buttons to lessen sound spamming when moving around them with the mouse.
Cheers
Linds
