One of the greatest indie games of all time just got a massive surprise update
Papers, Please just g✅ot a "near-total" code rewrite to get it running better on ꦐmodern systems

Instant indie classic Papers, Ple✅ase turns ten years old this year, and it's j꧂ust gotten a massive surprise update with a "near-total rewrite" of its underlying code.
Developer Lucas Pope the new 1.4 update as a "near-total rewrite that I expect to fix old problems and create new ones in equal measure." The underlying game engine has been con♈verted to Unity, which "is a major change that will hopefully fix a number of systemic issues that have been building up over the years on modern OSes and hardware."
In concrete terms, this update should make the game more compatible on a wider range of machines and will allow the game to run at higher frame rates - previously, it was capped around 60 frames per second regardless of what your monitor supported. There've also beenౠ a ton of bug fixes and🌄 new Korean, Turkish, and Czech localizations.
Pope promises in ꧅a big, bold heading that "there is no new game content in this update." So why go to all this trouble for such a minor set ofไ changes? The engine transfer started as part of the game's port to iPhones and Android devices last year, and the consequent fixes are now benefiting players of the original PC version, too.
If you're not familiar with Papers, Please, it puts you in the role of an immigration inspector in a fictional Eastern European country that's just emerged from a war with🌱 a neighboring region. You have spend increasingly lꦺimited time taking increasingly draconian measures to separate legitimate refugees from spies and terrorists.
The combo of grim aesthetic, occasionally heart-wrenching narrative, and stressful gameplay instantly made Papers, Please an icon of indie gaming in 2013, and there's still nothing quite like it today. That's why it made our list of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:100 best games of the decade.
