IMPORTANT myPOPGOES UPDATE/NEWS:

A huge thank you to the myPOPGOES players who have taken the time to give their compliments, feedback, and bug reports so far.

Most players have (thankfully) been able to experience the game as intended (though with some complaints about difficulty/balance). However, some unfortunate players have experienced bugs that have prevented them from unlocking certain items or achievements, or in super rare cases caused them to unlock something huge that they weren't supposed to!

The game is genuinely quite unstable behind the scenes. This is mostly due to content being "patched onto" the project over time, especially considering it was originally released, as finished, in 2023. It has become spaghettified over time, with 3 things breaking every time 1 thing is fixed. A mess.

Though plenty of people are fairly happy with the state of the game, I am not. I am organising a full reprogram of myPOPGOES, from scratch. I will not give many details about this yet, but I am aiming for it to be complete this month. With all assets ready, a completed game, and hindsight on our side... we should be able to make a perfect version of the game fairly quickly. A version that is more reliable, understandable, fast, and easier to tweak for other updates like balance changes (which are planned, so please keep giving your feedback and ideas for the things you find too difficult/easy!).

In the meantime, we will continue to patch the current version to fix game-breaking bugs and easier fixes. You can continue playing it, and I sincerely hope you enjoy it. But some complaints might only be fixed in the reprogrammed version that comes out later on. Thank you all for your patience - I'm very sorry that any of this even needs to be a conversation but I want to be mature enough to admit when things need to be reevaluated.

I have created a public list of known bugs in myPOPGOES. I will eventually make a list of planned changes/improvements for the reprogrammed game, but for now I'd like you guys to check this list of objective errors and let me know if there are any I have missed. The list contains spoilers but they are highlighted in black, so you need to drag over them to view:
