Vanoss & Delirious - Epic Break-ins: Episode 2
Youtubers Vanoss and H20Delirious have both posted new videos of their “epic” break-in attempts. The Meerkat Gaming team loved these videos, not only for the non-stop hilarity but also as an aid to help us reproduce and fix many of these issues. I’m happy to report that a majority of the glitches showcased in the videos are now patched but don’t worry, we’ve got a ton of big features in the works so I’m sure they will have no shortage of new material for an Episode 3.
