Content Game-Breaking Bug Fixed The game breaking "stuck on Hey" bug has been fixed. The glitch did not allow the player to proceed past the first message of any level. The cause of this is very interesting. We tried on many machines but were unable to replicate the bug. It seemed like it was affecting players at random. After looking through the discussion posts and reviews, I started to notice a pattern. All reviews and messages sent were from people that are from places that were not North America. So the question was: what's the difference between a American computer and a non-American computer? Well when you are texting a message in the game and pause for a moment and then delete we tell the game to pause for a certain amount of time. for example 1.7 seconds. But decimal separators en wikipedia.orai are different in different countries (ex: 1.7 vs 1,7). This caused the game to either error or wait for an absurd amount of time before proceeding. In short, countries using decimal commas caused the game to break whereas countries using decimal points did not. TL;DR: The game is fixed now! Please enjoy.

Your armor of unit tests can't save you from the sword of reality. You spend weeks building a fortress of test coverage, feeling invincible with your perfectly coded app... then some random user decides to put the poop emoji in the name field and your entire backend collapses like a house of cards. No amount of TDD prepares you for the creative chaos of actual humans using your product. The edge cases aren't on the edge—they're waiting in your production environment with a baseball bat.
