Zero Stress King: Idle Defense news & patch notes

Micro nano pico fixes ːcool_seagullː

• Fixed that annoying rare bug when an almost dead mob is not being targeted by your units

• Bigger fonts on the Friends screen, for Steam Deck and mobiles.

• Mobiles only: New setting for the beam offset for your finger (left, right, off)

I did it! ːcool_seagullː https://apps.apple.com/us/app/zero-stress-king-idle-defense/id6768713542

ːhappy_yetiː FINALLY!

• Steam features on MacOS are now fixed, so DLC and achievements are working

• You will get all the achievements that you should for current and previous runs. Two exceptions:

  • You have beaten the final boss, and reset the game after it - this particular achiv won't be recovered. You need to beat him again, sorry ːstimulationː

  • If you made a total reset, the game can't remember your achivs before this

Hi! New version! ːhappy_yetiː

• Total reset button - will delete all your trophies for a fresh new start. Please think twice!

• MacOS support

• Danish language!

• If a skill will give you a trophy, it shows it now

• New language - Vietnamese! (If you want to help add your language in the game, and it's not something hard for me, like right-to-left ones, write me on Discord) ːhappy_yetiː

• some txt fixes for Greek and Thai

• Multibuy is fixed for SteamDeck, and also works with LMB+RMB, in addition to Shift+LMB

• Saves back-ups - sometimes a save file can be corrupted due to hardware or electrical issues. Now there's triple redundancy of saves

• Builder beams optimization is now more meatgrindery

• You can see the color of beam damage on the monument's basement (it will be slightly orange, green, or grey)

• Nun's recharge status is now visible near the cursor

• Fixed the bug with not showing the game on load (probably)

• Fixed the crash with o_defender in the error message (probably)

• Now you can shrink the game window down to 320x180

• Fixed the rare issue when the game refuses to open at all. (if it's still there for you, please tell me)

• Some minor fixes in Portuguese and Polish texts

• If the game mistakenly did not give you those lava achievements, it will do it on the next launch

• Screenshake setting button

• Zoom it/out with the keyboard

It's the most straightforward port possible. No ads, in-apps, no internet needed. :happy_yeti: One-time payment

When iOS? Not sure, but someday.

• A clearer description of how many cups you get from boss challenges

• Multi-buy with holding Shift (or L2 on Steam Deck)

• Small bug fixes

• 'Summer mode' isn't enabled by default now (to respect the lava). But I made the button brighter so you will find it when needed ːhappy_yetiː (thank you)

Don't wait, check it out! ːhappy_yetiː

Super excited! ːhappy_yetiː

• Better texts for Portuguese, Polish, and Chinese

• Bug fix for when you beat a boss fight with no defenders

• Laser particles

• A few Friends rebalanced

• Cups from the demo will be kept in the full version

• Resources will not blink if you set "Show Loot" to "Off"

• Better texts for Japanese, Greek, French, Turkish

• Better targeting for boss mode - Piercing units will target the closest enemies to have more piercing behind them. One-hit units will target enemies who are going to escape earlier (counting their speed and position). Outside a boss fight, they will shoot randomly, because it's easier for the CPU and because who cares ːhappy_yetiː

• Bugfixes for sounds, and I forgot what else

• More juicier beams with burn traces. Raytracing of some kind ːsteamsunnyː

• Some things for a full version, not visible in the demo (extra boss challenges!)

ːhappy_yetiːːhappy_yetiːːhappy_yetiː

• You can see skill prices w/o hovering over it (very comfy, thanks Reddit!) ːhappy_yetiː

• Thai language (not polished yet)

• a bunch of small fixes

I've fixed the 2nd bossfight, which cannot be summoned SOMEHOW, ːstimulationː so you couldn't finish the demo and take all the achievements.

Made some improvements, so they look clearer now ːhappy_yetiː

The laser's 1st upgrade is available earlier ːcool_seagullː Because you like Bzzzzz

Opened the demo and got more feedback to work on.

(Btw, drop me a letter in google form or Discord, if you have something to share)

Results:

• Loot will stay a little before flying, so you could see the amount

• Stats view now shows loot per second

• Settings for hardware mouse, death animations

• Played with the fonts, hopefully won

• Greek language (not polished yet)

• The game runs more smoothly

• Visual indication when your farm isn't working (Zzz)

• Boss units aren't generous so much anymore (I told them!)

• Sounds turn off when the game is minimised

• One button on Steamdeck fixed

First of all, the playtest went great ːhappy_yetiː. I've received and processed a lot of your feedback.

Now, PT is closed, and the new full-featured demo is open. ːcool_seagullː What's there:

• Bossfights - beat them to unlock a new island. Call bosses any time, no penalties for failing

• Superbeam from the skies (unlock with a Nun)

• Better Unzoom view (less blurry, more schematic)

• Fixes - yes, many!

• Rebalances - sure!

What a tough week! Was busy working with your feedback

(Btw, drop me a letter in google form or Discord, if you have something to share)

Results:

• Friends (prestige) system

• Autosave every 1 min + a button to do it manually (for even lesser stress)

• Some balance

• Some optimizations
