Update: Private Play Again, Easy Mode and launch fixes
Fixes
- Mansion: you can no longer get trapped inside the stair wall.
- Multiplayer search no longer gets stuck on "Searching…".
- Windows: Alt-Tab no longer leaves extra "Fickle Allies" windows behind.
- Right-clicking at a player just out of Steal reach no longer turns you around.
Private Play Again
- Play Again keeps your group together in the same room, with the same code.
- Friends wait up to 12 minutes for the host to reopen the room.
- Create Room always makes a new room; Rejoin brings back your last one.
New
- Easy Mode for your first matches: no kills, no Groups, less XP.
- Private rooms: choose your own scare settings.
- Final minute: every crystal not yet deposited is shown on everyone's map.
- A Steal now tells its victim who took their crystals.
- Turning around can bring a surprise: a failing lamp, and something standing at the end of the light.
- First-match hints explain Kill, Steal and Groups.
- The Jump-Scare Warning now shows at every game start.
- The game starts in your Steam language, and new players start at 30% volume.
