Update 2


Hey everyone!

Update 2 time!

Update 2 patch notes:

-added mouse sensitivity slider in options menu

-changed/improved a few of the scares

-added a bonus game mode for players who get all endings (sadly players who have already gotten all endings will have to do it again as the game didn't track which endings had been achieved in earlier builds)

-made an alternate version of the 'Leave' ending


It's weird to think I wanted to finish this game in a week, but it's been ~3 months and I'm still adding to it. 

I haven't added everything I wanted to yet, but I think for now this is where I'm going to leave The Shadow Over Route 80 (barring some unforeseen horrible bug!). As much as I love expanding on TSOR80, I want to move onto other projects and try some new things. 

As mentioned in Update 1, I will still be releasing an itch.io version of "Night Of." at some point, for those of you desperate for some indie survival horror though there's still a link to it in the description of the Night Of.  trailer on my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKZEP7TXHdI). 

Thanks you again to everyone who played, and a massive shout-out to everyone who donated :)

This is not the end for our hapless gas station clerk. 



Completely unrelated rant [(RANT ALERT RANT ALERT)]

I just want to say the Microsoft Surface Book is the biggest piece of shit ever made and the SOLE REASON this update didn't come out sooner, and came out with less stuff than intended. The Nvidia card which programs like Unreal and Maya use is in the base, which can disconnect randomly from the tablet and crashes whatever program is using it (this can happen if you accidentally tilt the screen, or if the tablet battery isn't getting charged from the base without telling you, or just because why not lol). This happened a bunch of times whilst Unreal was saving and corrupted a ton of files, most of which I didn't have autosaves or back-ups of. 

Also one of Microsoft's updates (I think it was called 'The Creator's Update' lmao) permanently broke the touch screen's compatibility with Photoshop, I even reverted to the previous windows version and it was still broken :D

The only reason I haven't switched to a new computer is because I have so many music programs installed, all of which have their own special set-ups and logins and take aaaages to get working. Thankfully Unreal 5 uses DirextX 12 for some of it's cool features (like nanite) which this computer can't run, so I'll probably be forced to upgrade. 

Not that I'm salty or anything. I'm not salty. What, me? Salty? I would never be salty.  You're salty. You are currently sodium chloride.
