Where's My Water? 2

This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

Where's My Water? 2 is a sequel to the past puzzler with some free-to-play elements.

To do: Most levels have textures from most likely the level editor. The Credits screen in the current Android version as of 2021 shows a string not visible in the previous version. Is it interesting? Unused expert mode

Development Leftovers#

Directory Stores#

To do: Seems to be present in v1.6.1 but not v1.0.0, original version that has these?

The iOS version used Zip archives to store the large assets for locations, most of them have directory store files, mostly in the Water directory, a number having some info on where the assets were from.

Source Code#

A couple of source header files and a precompiled header file are present in the Windows 8 version. The DirectX source files are present in only the 32-bit version.

Download Where's My Water? 2 (Windows 8 source files) File: WheresMyWater2_Win8_SourceFiles.zip (30 KB) (info)

Microsoft Store App Association#

To do: Clean up the used ones.

A file named Package.StoreAssociation.xml is present in the root of the 32-bit Windows 8 version. It has a list of published application packages from around 2016, even ones not publicly released! It also mentions a 3rd beta version under the app id of 9NBLGGH6H0G8 that is unfortunately almost identical to the final retail Windows 8 version.

Debugging Content#

To do: Some of these don't have visibility toggles and do not appear in-game but DO have code.

You can enable a portion of these by deleting visibility flags or setting them to true in the screen XML files in the Data directory.

Debug Menu Text#

To do: The game's executable also mentions many seemingly working functions. Check all iOS versions

Reset Database.
Unlock all levels.
Triduck all levels.
Unlock all collectibles.
Complete all challenges and unlock bonus levels.
Unlock all achievements.
Unlock all evil objects.
Show finger dot.
Complete all bonus levels

Text for a debug menu exists in the game executable as of v1.9.0. It would probably be loaded on the said screen. Note that it mentions evil objects which are exclusive to WMP, suggesting the options were mostly ported with little changes.

Hub#

• DBG:Purchase: Unknown.
• DBG:Unlock: Unknown.

In-App Purchase#

To do: This only works in "debug/playtest mode", figure out how to set that on if possible.

• DBG:PURCHASE: Unknown.

In-Game#

• Debug Auto-Win Button: Tri-ducks the level, uses a texture, instead of a normal score, this outputs 10 ducks collected in the level.

Locked Gate Popup#

• DBG: Get Tickets: Unknown.
• DBG: Unlock Gate: Unknown.

Loading (Android)#

• Framerate: Displays the FPS on a little above the left corner on the performance testing screen on Android devices, the game runs at 60 so it will output numbers between 0-60.

Location Map#

• Debug Heart Icon: Unknown.
• Debug Heart Plus 1: Adds a heart to your save data.
• Debug Heart Minus 1: Removes a heart from your save data.
• Debug Next Location: A button titled "NL". It goes to the next location, when done on the last location, this has no effect.
• Debug Previous Location: A button titled "PL". It goes to the previous location, when done on the first location, this has no effect.
• Debug Duck Icon: Unknown.
• Debug Duck Plus 1: Adds a duck to your save data.
• Debug Duck Minus 1: Removes a duck from your save data.

Main Menu#

Please note the internal button positioning is horrible, overlapping the characters on the title screen, oh and the animation viewer button is horribly placed near the top left corner, a little offscreen.

• DBG:UI: Loads a UI test, dialog being one for unlocking a gate.

To do: Unhide sign in code to log into Facebook then try?

• DBG:Friend Selector: Doesn't have an effect.
• DBG:What's new: Doesn't have an effect.
• DBG:Animation: Loads the Animation viewer.
• DBG:Achievement: Loads the Achievement viewer.
• DBG:Toggle FPS/Mem: Adds a view for "Used" (used memory), "Free" (free memory) and "FPS" (Frames per second) on the top of the screen.

Settings Profile#

The first two crash on Android. The first two were changed to Unlock/Triduck.

• Unlock All: Unlocks all levels on the current page with no ducks.
• Triduck All: Unlocks all levels with all ducks, it works but you have to restart the game.
• Unlock Powerups: Unlocks powerups on the user's profile.
• Gift Keys: Appears to give the user's profile a certain amount of keys, unfortunately crashes the game.
• Enter NickName: Allows you to enter a nickname with an improperly localized keyboard.
• Collect All MDs: Collects all Mystery Ducks on the user's profile.
• Complete To Level 7: Completes all levels up to level 7.

World Select#

• DBG:Unlock: Unknown.

Animation Viewer#

Allows viewing and playback of any animation present in the game's files, looping of them is possible, however cross fading does not work. Loading an actor below 0 or beyond 5 will crash the game.

Achievement Viewer#

Allows viewing and earning of any achievement present in the game's files, however the UI is extremely bugged.

Level Editor#

To do: What Data?

Many images are present for some level editor, data is also present.

Developer Notes#

To do: Add xml devnotes.

Chinese Translation#

A fully-translated Chinese language is unused. Interestingly, a Chinese version of the game exists (similar to other games in the series), but this version crashes above Android 5.0.
