We Lied... THIS Is Our BIGGEST Update Ever! | v2.3.0
WE LIED... THIS is the BIGGEST update WE EVER MADE!
Remember when we said the last one was big? Forget it. v2.3.0 reworks the lobby from the ground up, gives every ghost a new set of tricks, introduces our very first pass, and lets your Twitch or Kick chat decide your fate. Grab your mop, janitors. It's a big one.
THE LOBBY - REBORN
The lobby has been fully reworked, and it's now yours .
- A brand-new workshop bench has been added to the lobby
- Purchase walls, floors and ceilings to redesign the space
- Purchase new furniture to fill it
- Move and rotate any item or piece of furniture exactly where you want it
- The info board has been fully reworked and now shows much better information
- The ready/start board has been fully reworked
- Map and difficulty selection has been fully reworked
INTRODUCING: THE SPOOKY PASS!
Welcome our first ever pass: the Spooky Pass!
- 30 levels packed with player and lobby customizables, emotes, and a special name title waiting at the very end
- It never expires. Get it whenever you want and progress at your own pace
- Cosmetic only. The pass does not affect gameplay in any way
- Free rewards for everyone. Players without the pass still get rewards at levels 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30
THE GHOSTS GOT SMARTER
Linda, Karl, Demon, Nun & Experiment have received multiple reworks.
- All ghosts are now sound sensitive. Walking, running, cleaning, speaking and other actions all make noise, and each ghost reacts to different sounds
- Not sure how to survive? The info board in the lobby now explains each ghost's behavior and how to counter it
Choose your steps carefully. And maybe stop talking.
SHOP & CUSTOMIZATION REWORK
- The shop and player customization have been reworked. You now buy items in the shop and equip them from the Player Customization area
Emotes, reworked
- Press F1 to open the new emote wheel
- Go to Player Customization to add, remove or rearrange emotes on the wheel
- More emotes are available in the shop
Name Titles
- Earn name titles by doing specific things: reaching a level, completing Hardcore, reviving teammates, and more. Show off what you've done!
TWITCH & KICK INTEGRATION
Twitch and Kick are now integrated into the game! Let your chat decide how the run goes. Head into Settings to set it up. Streamers, your viewers are about to become your worst enemy.
PERSONAL SPACE IS OVER
- Players can now collide with each other
- Players can now push each other (use this power responsibly... or not)
TASKS & GAMEPLAY
- 4 new tasks added: 2 permanent and 2 Halloween-themed
- Cursed Dolls & Boxes now shatter into pieces when broken
- The Leaking Pipe task has a new effect and new sounds
- You can now change the HUD scale in the options, making it smaller or bigger
END OF RUN
- Added a Time Played statistic at the end of each run
- The TV screen at the end of the run now hands out new awards based on what each player did. Expect plenty of new (and questionable) titles for your crew's finest and worst moments
LITTLE THINGS
- Added lots of small interactions around the game. Touch the decorative crystal globe and it pulses with color, play the piano for a random note, and discover many more
AUDIO
- All radio songs have been replaced, including some new Halloween-themed tracks
- All task sounds have been improved
LANGUAGES
- Added Arabic, Malay & Thai
BUG FIXES
- Fixed the camera getting stuck leaning if you leaned and crouched
- Fixed tools sometimes disappearing when you died
- Fixed the spectator camera shaking on lower-end PCs
- Fixed the Macarena dance being visually bugged
- Fixed the generator's cooldown between random falls not working properly
