V0.52

Hey Everyone,

 

For this patch we've focused on fixing some of the bugs that have been popping up over the last few days since the 0.51 release.

 

We also added a new clothing type for MP characters and a new game mode, both of which become available after completing the ending. If you've already completed the ending you'll need to run through the end again to unlock these.

 

We also switched the re-grow cheat mode into a checkbox that you can select from the game options menu, making it more accessible to people who don't know the cheat exists. Ticking this will cause tree's to slowly grow back for you whilst you sleep in game. We also made one of the distorted creatures more resistant to molotov attacks, and fixed some multiplayer issues with restarting the game after finishing the story mode,  along with a few other fixes. The full list is included below.

 

As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub

 

 

  • A new game mode now gets unlocked at the end of the epilogue
  • A new clothing option is available in mp for players who complete the game
