Manny's news & patch notes

Hello everyone! I hope you have all been enjoying Manny's! I recently logged back into my other computer and decided to make the cave sections of the game much, much brighter. There shouldn't be any need for turning up your own monitor brightness, as now the game should be a relatively good level of brightness all the way through. I hope you are all having a great summer and hopefully I will have more news to share with you about Manny's 2 soon! Byebye!

Hello everyone~! I hope after all these months that you are still enjoying Manny's! As an update, I am hard at work on the second game. I just wanted to make a small patch, as some Chinese fans have recently revealed some glitches involving items that can be collected. Though these players are collecting the amount of items needed to progress the levels, sometimes this isn't happening. I have added some code that should rectify this error. Thank you and please continue to enjoy Manny's!

Hello everyone~! Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend so far! Ovendonkey and I have been hard at work squashing bugs and we are proud to present the 9th language for Manny's! We have a few other fixes in store for you as well:

• Full Indonesian translation of Manny's!
• Brighter flashlight, as per the user reviews
• Fixed some of the player text appearing in the wrong place
• Various other small UI fixes

Thank you Indonesia for being so patient. I hope you have a terrific weekend and enjoy the game. A very special thank you to Ryuuzuki & Albert Wijaya for the prompt translation. Terima kasih!

Many thanks to Eueeeeeeeek for bringing to my attention that the Korean translation was not up to standard. Borrowing from their fan translation, the Korean version of Manny's should be up to everyone's expectations now. Enjoy!

Hello everyone~! I hope you had a very Merry Christmas! It is almost the New Year, and with it I have brought the gift of language! There are now 6 new translations for Manny's! No more external patches! No more translating for your chats! It's finally here! Version 1.2.2!

• 6 NEW translations, including Simplified Chinese, Korean, French, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, and Russian!
• Changed Tyler's high resolution Employee of the Month photo to have more accurate hair
• Fixed a spelling error on Mr. Petrovsky's name in one of the cutscenes
• Made the flashlight brighter for all dark sections
• Slightly improved Japanese translation
• Split up a few of the cutscenes, as people were accidentally skipping important sections

That's about it for updates for Manny's for a while! I am exhausted. I will however be providing controller functionality at some point, probably in the new year, as well as any other translations that may come my way. Enjoy! I'm off for a well deserved rest...

Hello everyone! I have received an improved Japanese translation of Manny's from the wonderful Keita Yamaguchi, who graciously offered his time and expertise to improve upon the existing localized text, including the store page and the achievements. Some other things have been added as well! Thank you Keita for all of your hard work!

• Improved Japanese localization throughout the entire game!
• Revised fish cards
• Disabled 'disoriented' gradient until the proper time in the good ending cutscene
• Fixed boss music oversight where the first part of the song would play if that section of the final boss cutscene was skipped.

Hello everyone~! I am very pleased to announced that Japanese localization is LIVE! There is a new "Languages" option in the options menu! More languages are on the way! This patch also fixes some minor cosmetic things as well as adding to the overall QoL!

Hello~! There has been more constructive criticism over the size of the crank interaction box in the cave entrance. So now, it is even bigger!

• Crank interaction box is now bigger, without losing the puzzle element of the section.
• There is now a recommendation to get the "good ending" if the player gets the "bad ending" to the game, as the good ending is VASTLY superior to the bad ending in even way.

Please continue to enjoy Manny's!
