Checkmage! 1.0.2 Update Fixes Audio Loops and Save States
Checkmage! patch 1.0.2 fixes background music looping, ensures pixel zoom settings persist correctly on startup, and resolves menu keybind defaults. It also addresses post-battle logic for draws and final enemy encounters.
The 1.0.2 update for Checkmage! addresses several persistent quality-of-life issues, fixing how the game handles audio loops, menu keybindings, and display settings.
Display and Controls
The default key for opening the menu is no longer backspace. Additionally, pixel zoom settings are now saved properly and apply correctly whenever you launch the game.
Battles and Audio
Background music now loops correctly during gameplay. The game also resolves issues with post-battle dialogue and stage progression, ensuring a badge no longer unlocks if you draw with the final enemy in a stage, and encountering a draw now correctly triggers post-battle dialogue.
Why this patch matters
A straightforward bug-fixing patch that polishes basic audio, interface, and progression tracking.
