WELCOME SHREDDERS!!!
Over the past 2 months, we have worked with all the feedback you guys have given us and improved the game for a better feel, gameplay and experience. We hope that you enjoy the game in the best form it has been since our Early Access release. Feel free to share your feedback in the Shred Off Discord Server.
Here’s what’s new in version 1.0

UPDATED
The difficulty of the game was adjusted. The goal was to make combat less forgiving. Enemies now hit the player more often and weapons received several balance changes.
- Receiving a weapon you don’t want to use or don’t suit the situation was frustrating, so we added an option to drop or swap between collected pickups.
- Menus received a visual update.
- Levels have undergone lighting and colour grading changes.
- The pixelated look of the game has been polished to be more readable and professional.

Known Issues
We recommend that you play this build with Mouse & Keyboard! There are still big issues related to controller input.
- Leaderboards may not load properly, if this happens play the level twice to see the leaderboards for that level.
- Leaderboards are currently not controller compatible.
- Dropping your weapon on the Controller does not register the input.
- The player character model is affected by the environmental lighting.
We are working hard on fixing these problems and will update it on our next patch!
Hope you have fun Shredding!!
