| Reuploaded Trailer and New Collision (Patch 1.3) | 2016-10-16 | Hello everyone! We just realized that the trailer on the store page was actually cut off for some reason - assumingly an error when it was uploaded. It's now been reuploaded and worth checking out!

Changes: -Fixed flashlight and key glitches. -Enabled continuous collision detection for all objects. Current known issues: There seems to be a very small amount of people experiencing lag. From our observation, it may only affect those with a 980ti. We're loo |
