Update (25 July 2017)
- This update adds a pack of 3 levels to enhance the beginning of the game.
- All 3 levels happen on the Mothership and take place just before the game intro. We've put some details here and there that might help you reveal what Mothership and her spawns really are.
How to start the new level pack
- If you already own BUTCHER and have some progress going on, we recommend starting the campaign in another (temporary) save slot. Alternatively, you can just play the levels one-by-one from the level browser.
Update (28 February 2017)
- This update adds the Level Editor to Bucher.
Update (02 January 2017)
- fixed a serious bug that affected gamepad performance in Linux
W.I.M.P. (23 December 2016)
- BUTCHER W.I.M.P. (Winning Is My Pleasure) is an easy mode update that will allow you beat levels only for the price of losing your dignity (if you have no dignity already, you lose nothing!).
- Warning! Side effects might include:
- Depression
- Lower self-esteem
- Socially inappropriate behavior caused by the loss of self-respect
- Feeling offended
- Sleep disorders
- Also, we've recently added the following features:
- Better gamepad support (especially XBox and DS4 on Windows)
- Key combo support in controls settings
- Multiple save files
- Compatibility tweaks and minor bugfixes
- Note: if you would like to remove the changes made by the W.I.M.P. update then you will need to remove or rename the wimp.txt file found in the game's directory and restart the game.
Better gamepad support:
- Supported gamepads and operating systems (the list might grow in the future) - if not on the list, it might work, but no guarantees (we have no way to test everything, especially on non-Windows platforms):
- Windows 7: XBox 360 (wired and wireless), XBox One, DS4, Logitech F310
- Linux (Ubuntu 16.04, default driver): Xbox 360 (wireless)
- OSX: Logitech XUSB, DS3
- Slight auto-aim and rebindable gamepad layout.
- Advanced settings for unrecognized gamepads (or not recognized properly) - old "experimental" section.
- Possibility to turn off gamepad menu navigation in cases of improperly recognized gamepads.
- Possibility to change dead zones for walking and jumping.
- No keyboard layout select popup if gamepad is used in-game.
- Combo keys support - just press 2 or more keys in the key config prompt.
- Multiple save files.
- Level browser is accessible regardless of the progress of the game.
- Fixed: shader compatibility issue that caused low framerate in rare cases.
- Fixed: black screen issue (fix worked on Windows 8.1 and integrated Intel GPU).
- Fixed: city 4 end-arena elevator bug.
- Fixed: city 3 lighting didn't work properly from time to time.
Update 2 (10 October 2016)
- Added: an option to clean-up all gore each time you respawn (Settings -> Video).
- Fixed: not working skull achievements.
- Fixed: being able to go outside of the map in jungle, level 1.
- Fixed: railgun ignored picking up ammo when charged.
- Fixed: grenades (and likely other window-breaking projectiles) could tunnel through wall if shot through overlapping breakable window.
- Fixed: level browser menu impossible to navigate with gamepad.
- Fixed: slight sound tweaks here and there.
Update (10 October 2016)
