We've already released one Hotfix to address the first issues that came in over the launch weekend.
Gathering all the feedback we've received from our lovely players, we've decided to Map out the Road (get it?) we'll be taking to polish and upgrade the game, taking into consideration both simple bugfixes, as well as additional changes to improve the quality of life.
Steam is our first priority, but these changes will soon make their way onto other platforms as well!

Seeing you all explore Rainbow Drive and become absolute rulers of the Green Door queue has warmed our hearts beyond words, and we couldn't be more thankful for all your feedback!
That being said, we wanted to address (and fix) the issues you have been reporting throughout the Launch Weekend, so here it is!
The first patch for Techno Banter!
This hotfix aims to address all the issues connected to progressing through the game:

Fixed inability to select certain dialogue options using the controller
Fixed soft-lock caused by using skills without the required hype level
Fixed inability to progress through the Red Flags explanation during the dialogue with Gunthy
If you run into any more pesky bugs, feel free to reach out to us either through our Discord server, our Community Hub or directly to our team at [email protected]
