Patch NotesOfficial
Patch 1.3
Patch 1.3 - fixed glitch in credits Note: There is a bug that appears at random (often on map change) that shows a black screen and a note saying "cannot read property "resolution" of undefined". This is unfortunately due to an outdated plugin, and I cannot fix it myself without breaking the game :( So sorry for this issue but I hope you enjoyed regardless!
