Hi!

First, we would like to thank you for being part of this amazing community! We are excited to announce that Update 1.2 is now available!

To summarize, this is the 12th update since the game's release. Over the course of these updates, we’ve improved and fixed more than 150 issues! The game is now better optimized, more balanced, has fixed bugs, and features new additions. We invite you to start your adventure in the world of Moon Mystery alongside Toby!

You can now play using a gamepad! While this is partial controller support, as the game was originally designed for mouse and keyboard and is best played with them, the entire game is still fully playable from start to finish with a controller. Remember, you can enable or disable aim assist for controllers in the settings at any time!

Based on your feedback and extensive playtesting, we’ve made many small tweaks to the game, including adjustments to:

1. Ammunition
   
2. Damage (for both players and enemies)
   
3. Health (for both players and enemies)
   
4. Stamina

These minor improvements across the board have enhanced the overall experience, making the game feel more balanced and enjoyable!

We did another fix for attachments. Some achievements, which were particularly tricky to address as they affected only a very small number of players, have been temporarily hidden to ensure that everyone can fully enjoy unlocking achievements. Thank you for your understanding and continued support!

We’ve also made numerous improvements to the game’s translations. Lines that were previously untranslated are now fully translated, and we’ve refined existing translations to make them sound more natural and polished.

• Fixed a crash on the submarine level (additional patch applied).
  
  
• Resolved an issue where objects couldn't be picked up with the scanner equipped.
  
  
• Fixed a strange behavior when pausing the game during anomalies while driving the sedan.
  
  
• Corrected human banners appearing in the background of the robot city.
  
  
• Addressed a visual bug in the underwater base when controlling a missile.
  
  
• Fixed life bar not decreasing initially when shooting the machine gun turret.
  
  
• Removed an unfairly placed drone on the ice planet near the sliding big ice rock.
  
  
• Fixed an invisible wall on the ice planet.
  
  
• Enlarged the final door in the last ice planet puzzle to fit properly.
  
  
• Fixed incorrect icons for gamepad graphics in settings; RS and LS were swapped.
  
  
• Resolved a bad single frame appearing in the final cutscene.
  
  
• Fixed the "Save after destroying pillar" bug where the laser puzzle save prevented the arena door from
  opening.
  
  
• Fixed a floating cosmonaut costume when jumping into a wormhole.
  
  
• Fixed a bug where the reset vehicle button displayed incorrectly as "B" instead of "R" on the keyboard.
  
  
• Updated tutorials for switching vehicle cameras using a gamepad.
  
  
• Improved default sensitivity settings for gamepad controls.
  
  
• Adjusted sensitivity on the gamepad to ensure better responsiveness.
  
  
• Updated all in-game prompts to display the appropriate gamepad button icons (e.g., "Press X to interact" instead of "Press F").
  
  
• Improved visual feedback for quick saves; the yellow line no longer appears on the sedan vehicle.
  
  
• Reduced difficulty on the alien landscape by removing one sniper robot from the train section.
  
  
• Fixed the weapon printer animation on the UFO base.
  
  
• Optimized the rendering of the Black Star 2 base to avoid visible loading when destroying distant
  pillars.
  
  
• Removed placeholder cube from the alien landscape.
