V0.5.0 is now live!
Hi Everyone!
The focus of this update was to fix several severe issues preventing people from properly playing the game. Planned new game modes are found below as well as plans for next weeks update.
Here are the main changes for V0.5.0:
- Several Dad black screen issues have been fixed
- New Item: Baby Restrainy - Allows you to pick up baby for brief periods of time. Breaks after 3 uses.
- Blue screen issues should* be fixed
- Many netcode improvements (Especially noticeable when picking up objects as client)
- 64 Bit builds added for Linux and OSX: Will greatly improve stability for these platforms.
- Many bug fixes and balance changes: See Detailed Changelog
Unfortunately this update is not impressive in terms of content, however a lot of networking back-end has been redone to prepare for spilt-screen mode and new game modes in general.
