Hi everyone,

this update took me a bit longer than I wanted to. Sorry about that. I was thinking a lot about how to make the pipes in higher difficulties more fair. While a health system would have been a possible solution for this, I wanted to add another gameplay element into the game instead. Main Valves.

1.1.0 Patch Notes:

- Main Valves: Each area/hallway has a main valve that spawns in a random location. Players can interact with the valve to disable all pipes in the current hallway/area. - Crawling: Tired of laying around and waiting for help? Say no more. - Medkit Self Heal: time to revive yourself cut in half - More Medkits in higher difficulties - Additional game notifications when things happen in the match(death notifications, ..) - Lunch Lady Speed/Hearing/Sight tweaks - Some smaller map changes to fix areas where the Lunch Lady got stuck - Reworked the internal difficulty system so I can work more efficient when creating maps and difficulties in the future :) If you encounter any bugs, feel free to report them in the steam discussions or join me and the others over at discord. Can't wait to talk to you :) You can see the current game version in the main menu's bottom right corner.
