10/25/25 Patch Notes
Broke Signal Badlands » Devlog
A small update for Broke Signal Badlands has been released, with the following changes and updates:
- A loading screen has been added to the main menu, when players choose the tutorial or start a new run.
- We've attempted to address player's frustrations with running into landmark encounters and having it reappear - there is a 10 second window where the collision is hidden when a landmark encounter is completed (pass a diceroll). This should hopefully cut down on some incidents where players run into the same encounter over and over again when leaving it.
- Fixed a bug with Shootouts where passing one shootout during a run would cause players to pass all shootouts after, even if they miss.
- Fixed several enemies having larger hitboxes than their actual sprite during shootouts.
- Shootout dodge window has been increased from 1 second to 3 seconds for enemies, giving players more time to take shots.
- Shootouts have been shortened from 10 seconds to 7 seconds.
- Gun dice have been changed to revolver cylinders. They are functionally identical, but aesthetically distinct.
- Removed instances of "maxx" being used instead of "max" during the tutorial.
- Added a note that text speed/image speed can be increased in options in the tutorial.
- Added a note that the spacebar/A button can be double-tapped to skip through text faster.
- Recontextualized a few generic journal entry options.
- Moved information about Rerolls to display before rolling the dice during an encounter, helping players make better decisions about when to take a risky roll.
- Added Patrons to the Credits menu
