- Patch Notes Version 0.9.4 - Release/Demo Fixes - 22 October 2024
Bug Fixes Fixed an issue that prevented robots from being able to headbutt Fixed an issue that disabled the lava from rising on Pyro Plunge Removed red hue from robot faces The Grappling Hook no longer retracts closer than it attaches; this will prevent it from entering situations where it let robots join the RRSA (Robo-Royale Space Administration) without permission 🚀 A quick note There are currently some bugs with Steam Remote Play Together that we are trying to fix. For now: If you are playing as a Remote Play guest and your controller stops putting in inputs, trying Alt+Tabbing out of the host's game stream and Alt+Tabbing back in. Find a bug or issue?
