Issues unresolved
Save file corruption
- A few initial reports of save file corruption.[22] Saving in multiple slots recommended.
Glitched out Spatulas and Socks
- Small amount of reports from the Community from Steam, GOG, Epic Games, and Consoles had reported of Spatulas that are not able to be collected. This wasn't fixed properly by the Devs. [23] And the only way to get all of them is a full on restart on another save that don't have other collectables yet to be grabbed. And without dying or falling while touching them.[24]
Issues fixed
Mouse cursor is always visible on the screen
- Issue was introduced with patch 1.1a.
