Hotfix 1.1.1 is live & Our First Steam Community Art Challenge!

 

Hello Scribes!

Today's post will be a shorter one - but we still have a few things we want to share with you (and introduce you to a brand new, exciting activity here on Steam which hopefully will unleash your Scriptorium creativity even more!)

 

Thank You for the Incredible Response to Last Week's Update!

We are truly blown away by how warmly you received our first big update. Seeing your creations in the Sandbox Gallery, Balatro-inspired cards featuring Jimbo, reading your feedback, and watching the community come alive has been awesome as always. Thank you for your patience during development and for the kind words - they keep us going!

 

Hotfix 1.1.1: What's New

Let's get to the core aspect of this Steam post. This hotfix update brings a set of tweaks and bug fixes to improve your Scriptorium experience, especially around the Sandbox Gallery.

 

Among the highlights: we fixed the sketch limit popup not resetting correctly, resolved broken non-Latin characters in collection names, and brought back the missing letters (V, v, B, X). We also corrected colour selection issues in the text editor and addressed several other smaller annoyances. And lastly - for those of you creating artworks with hundreds or even thousands of assets (yes, we see you ignoring our pop-up warnings 😏) - we tinkered with save files and optimization to fix the rare issue where your enormous creations were lost in the process because they simply turned out to be too big for the game to comprehend. Full changelog below!

 

Tweaks:

 

·       Star VFX appears when buying sketches in Sketch Shop

 

·       Minimized the risk that exceptionally large sketch compositions will not be loaded in the Sandbox

 

 

 

Bug fixes:

 

·       Fixed: Sketch limit popup not resetting its state correctly in Sandbox and in Sandbox Gallery

 

·       Fixed: Incorrect ribbon collision points in My Journal

 

·       Fixed: Vanishing scrollbar in the customer description in My Journal

 

·       Fixed: No refresh of collection view in context menu in Sandbox Gallery

 

·       Fixed: Current page not saving in Sandbox gallery

 

·       Fixed: Lock/unlock shortcut tooltip doesn't hide when clicked

 

·       Fixed: Broken non-Latin characters in collection names list in Sandbox Gallery

 

·       Fixed: Incorrect color selection in the text editor

 

·       Fixed: Unnecessary highlighting of one of the tabs in the second page of My Journal

 

·       Fixed: Missing letters V, v, B, X

 

 

As always, let us know if anything still feels off - we are always here to help and listen to your feedback!

 

 

👀 Expect a Special Update Soon

Next week, keep an eye out for a dedicated post about the future of Scriptorium.

 

We want to give you a voice - and genuinely hear what you would love to see in the game next. Stay tuned!

 

The First Steam Community Art Challenge - starts NOW!

One of the things we love most about our game and you as our community of players is watching what you create (and that's the best feeling for us devs to see you creating much, much more awesome art than we ever did!) and inspiring you to create even more. Art Challenges are something we have been running for a while now on our official Discord and Reddit, and they have always brought out some truly amazing work from you all.

 

Seeing the wonderful pieces you have been sharing in the Steam Community Hub, we decided it was time to bring the fun here too - so without further ado, welcome to our very first Steam Community Art Challenge!

 

The theme: illustration of your favourite video game - created entirely in Scriptorium. Whether it's a beloved classic, your favorite indie title, or a hidden gem, we want to see it brought to life through your artwork! This challenge is one of our classics - just take a look at artworks made by our Discord users recently!
