Turns out, the file paths were bugged when v1.1 went live over a year and a half ago. This also affected the Linux version from what I can gather. Funnily enough, I didn't even have to re-build the game, and just had to fix a few settings in the build settings and Steam itself! This has been rectified: Changes - Fixed the internal depot to have the Windows executable and Linux executable on the root-level of the folder, fixi |

| BIRBOUT! 1.0 (Full Ver.) Patch Notes | 2021-12-05 | Developer’s Address Ladies and gentlemen! We have done it. We have finally done it. BIRBOUT! is now fully released. Whilst there were a few other things I really wanted to do, at this point, I really need to take a mental health break, plus I can always patch all of this in later.

I’ll also patch them out soon. It’s been a long 3-and-a-third year journey for us, and as we head into 2022, I’ll be sure to keep updating the game with new features and cont |
