Yipe! 5 - Web Version History
Versions
2/28/2021 Version 1.17.0: Major version update! This is an update with lots of behind the scenes stuff. I've worked with a developer named Rajat to integrate Yipe with Google Firebase. The two goals here were:
- User login. This allows people to create yipe5.com accounts.
- Saved game data. Leveraging the new user accounts functionality, we can now save game data to the cloud.
Existing players note: For now, registering is optional. Your existing saved character should load fine or you can create an account and your saved character should come across to your account.
2/13/2021 Version 1.16.5: Thanks Ryan W! Ryan has gone above and beyond as a beta tester and has really helped me flush out all inconsistencies, bugs, typos, etc... from the game. He's helped through the whole journey here and this release focuses on a number of his more recent finds.
- Fixed bug with collecting Gardener Hut items and your max carrying capacity.
