The Custom Hobo Demo has been officially released! We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed writing these patch notes.

Content

• Added new job-specific sprites for certain pieces, so you can flex your fit in an appropriate style.

• Added a "Bumper block" object to the editor. Try to recreate Pinball. (you think it's a joke, but it works).

• Added liquor, beer, and wine bottles to the editor, for your drinking pleasure. Take that, ESRB.

Features

• You can now enable anonymous gameplay stats in the settings menu. It's disabled by default. If you enable it, it'll provide us helpful feedback, so definitely consider turning it on!

• Levels now show a "splash" screen that introduces the level in style.

• The mission map got a glow-up (literally) - it's been redone to really "tie the room together" and make

the world feel more real.

• Climbing is now "physical". Any hobo with at least one arm nub can climb ladders and grab ropes - just like real life.

• Level Objectives are now shined up and made cooler looking, so you can complete objectives with an even more obvious and delicious emphasis than before.

• Wind physics is upgraded and is now more "windy."

• Guns now have a subtle, tasteful muzzle flash

• Melee weapons now have a subtle, tasteful charging animation (replacing their previous unsubtle, tasteless charging animation)

• We've juiced up the victory screen and the victory screen flow to make it even flow-ier and look nicer. Co-op players will now be pitted against each other in the Biomass Rankings. See which of your friends is best at grabbing those gloppy nuggets.

• Rocket Skis now have a Rocket Booster instead of a Rocket Thruster. You'll know the difference when ya see it.

• We've refurbished the notification pane, it looks nicer and works better with lots of notifications on screen at once.

Editor

• You can now browse the Steam Workshop ingame. See the (customized) world - all while never leaving the comfort of Custom Hobo.

• You can now tag custom levels with Steam Workshop tags from within the Editor. Tag away with impunity.

• Custom levels have better validation now, so it's harder to save a level that won't work properly.

• We've redone the interface for how objects are edited. Triggers and complicated data like hobo speeches should be a lot easier to edit now.

• The editor now supports undoing more operations than it did before, for those revisionist history fans out there.

• Editor objects now have visible resize and rotate controls

• Rich text is even easier to edit and add special effects to now.

Misc

• Every sprite in the game got new, more accurate polygons added to it. Collisions are 1000% real life accurate now (1000% is an estimation. Don't sue us.)

Bugfixes

• Controller disconnection and reconnection works better than ever before.

• Fixed a few different issues that were causing hoboes to get their legs stuck in the ground

• Fixed an issue that made mech arms hard to aim

• Fixed an issue that made the robot copters from the copter torso collide with platforms it shouldn't

• Fixed an issue in which hoboes were allowed to bypass doors by grabbing them
