An update on updates

No game without bugs, right? Unfortunately this sad fact is true for Max as well. We are really sorry about that and any inconvenience it might have caused. That is why we now release the first official patch to the PC version of Max & the Magic Marker. It fixes some of the bugs in the game that have been brought to our attention by gamers writing to us. Please don’t stop doing that – it is very valuable to us!

This and eventual future updates to the game can be found on maxandthemagicmarker.com/updates/

WiiWare version: Some of you are also asking about fixes to the bugs that are in the Wii build. We are eager to fix these bugs as well, but as patching is not so common on WiiWare, we can’t really give any time frame on this, but we are working on it. Also we can say that they have been fixed in the US build as well as in the Japanese build, as announced Thursday.

Have a nice saturday!

Great game. Unfortunately, it freezes on the last level when I beat the big boss guy and enter the portal. The game just sits there. I’ve beat it now 5 times and the same thing happens. I also tried rebooting somewhere in those 5 attempts.

Playing on PC from Steam.

Hey, I bought the game and like it a lot.

But:

It does not let me reconfigure the input, neither keyboard nor gamepad. The gamepad does not work – the only button that is registered is jump.

I thought, maybe this would be fixed with the patch. But now the game crashes on start with an invisible “Oops” button.

Please look into these issues, this game is really good but these issues turn me down somewhat.

Hey guys you shouldn’t have any trouble updating the euro wiiware release of max because konami have just done it today with Gradius Rebirth!

You must really be afraid of bugs, because you don’t have any means for us to report them.

I like Max very much, but in the patched version i am still experiencing the same problem. The game always crashes at the “ship ahoy” level where you have to shoot at multiple targets with the canon. Really annoying! Hope this can be fixed soon. I really would love to play on…

Max is awesome but you guys really need to fix the euro release, I’ve had quite a few collision detection glitches and glitches where when you respawn you lose your ink and all the ink balls are gone. Also I’ve many game crashing bugs where everything just freezes and forces me to reset my wii. Some of the game crashing ones I happend to me multiple times in a row at exactly the same area.

Please release a wiiware fix soon, I’ve seen wiiware games updated in the past so it should be possible just pressure nintendo into it.
