Super Markup Man news & patch notes

First of all, thanks to all of the new players joining Super Markup Man during the Remote Play Together sale! This sale does highlight something that has been a sticking point for many players, though. Historically, you were required to finish the single-player HTML mode first before you could play co-op in CSS Mode. For some players, HTML Mode was also just not challenging enough to play all the way through. So... I've removed this restriction, meaning CSS Mode is now available from the very start! Of course, it's still recommended to play HTML Mode first if you are not familiar with HTML syntax. Free Play Mode will also remain locked until you complete CSS Mode, as it wouldn't make sense to jump straight into such an unstructured environment. Enjoy!

I should preface this update by saying that no new features are being added to Super Markup Man. Instead, this is an underlying engine upgrade that hopefully improves the overall performance of the game and fixes several gamepad issues that players have been having. Most notably, gamepad support for macOS is back! However, this update does remove the 32-bit binaries for Windows. The Steam Overlay is also no longer working for macOS (and still doesn't work for Linux). If these are deal breakers, or you start experiencing other issues with the new build, you can switch back to the old version. In the game's Properties > Betas menu, select the v1.2.3 branch to roll back. Let me know how this upgrade affects your experience with the game, and thanks for playing!
