We’ve just pushed out a new hotfix with a bunch of improvements across the game and the Room Editor. Stability is better, custom rooms run smoother, and we cleaned up several level issues along the way. Thanks to everyone sending us reports and videos, it really helps us track things down.
Build-a-Room Competition
The Build-a-room competition has officially wrapped up and you absolutely crushed it. We received 112 submissions! Thank you Builders for creating so many clever, beautiful and huge rooms. Some of you went all-in with gigantic and complex designs that pushed the Room Editor to its limits. Because of that you actually helped us uncover issues we wouldn’t have seen otherwise.
Over the next few weeks we’ll focus on improving the Room Editor and community rooms. This hotfix is a part of that effort. Just a small reminder that the editor is still in beta so thank you for your patience! 🙏
We already started reviewing all rooms but with so many entries we’ll need a bit more time. Our plan is to announce the winners on December 10th. More details soon.
