This also means for example that Tanuki’s with Kangaroo’s ability won’t bounce other Tanukis. Ability copiers should now work with passive abilities like Cherufe, Honey Badger, and Vogelkop. Bug FixesSaving and loading a game from shop will no longer cause you to lose the save. Siren will now correctly gain points for the animals that move next to it. Gold will no longer show as you having 10,000 when coming back to your game if you left during the shop phase.

Zoominoes' First Post-Launch Patch Fixes Achievements, Crashes, and More
Zoominoes, a recently launched title, has received its first post-launch update — a hotfix targeting a broad sweep of bugs reported in the days following release.
What changed
Collect all Zookeepers achievement no longer triggers prematurely after collecting only three.
Sally can now roll the shop again after buying it out entirely.
Buying booster packs no longer causes the trash UI element to disappear.
Win streak now displays correctly in the stats screen.
Golden Running Shoes now functions properly with Gulper Eel, Tuna, Horse, and Quail.
Animal Vacation no longer causes a crash on day two.
Ouroboros now triggers correctly when summoned.
Caterpillar works correctly with ×2 spaces.
The Two for One challenge no longer incorrectly applies buffs to most copied animals.
Translation alignment issues have been corrected for several UI elements.
Bison and Mermaid unlocks now function properly; the Super Ghost Pepper unlock condition was previously impossible and has been fixed.
Loss faces added for Crimson, Azure, Randy, and Chally.
Crow now correctly grants a snack.
A spurious Hoarder 2 achievement has been removed from the in-game display (it was not present on Steam).
Titan has been temporarily removed from the pool while further bug fixes are prepared for a future update.
The developer notes that additional updates are planned, covering more bug fixes alongside UI and sound effect improvements — meaning players should expect continued refinement in the near term.
