Weve just released another update to the Nitronauts Demo. This update includes several fixes and tweaks:

• Multiple game controller bug: Fixed a bug that prevented additional controllers from registering input properly, rendering them unusable
• Default player speed: Increased the default player speed slightly
• Throw button UX: Instead of holding the drop-bomb button to pick up a bomb and pressing it again to throw, you now just tap the button while standing on a bomb
• Ghost bomb adjustments: Reduced the power of Ghost bombs; they now use standard bombs instead of super bombs. (We plan further adjustments so bombs will be thrown forward rather than dropped at the Ghosts feet when the fuse runs out)

We've just released another update to the Nitronauts Demo, fixing a crash for some users:

• Text Input Stability: Fixed a crash that occurred when entering non-Latin alphabet characters in text fields.

We've just released another update to the Nitronauts Demo, fixing several bugs and improving gameplay:

• Player Loadout Bug: Fixed an issue where players couldn't start with the ability to throw bombs despite selecting this option in the Player Loadout menu.
• Panic Sequence Respawn Issue: Fixed a bug where players could respawn into walls during the panic sequence and not properly die.
• Text Rendering Improvement: Fixed a visual issue where unknown characters were displaying as red opaque placeholder squares.

Weve just rolled out a small patch for the Nitronauts Demo, addressing several important issues:

• Gamepad input on high refresh rate monitors being ignored: Fixed an issue where button presses werent being registered properly on monitors running above 60Hz.
• Players not respawning correctly in certain game modes: During King of the Hill & Territory panic sequences, players would respawn as ghosts. In extreme cases everyone would end up a ghost just watching the timer countdown. Now, in these game modes, players respawn as normal until the match end.
• Language preference persistence: Your chosen language preference will now correctly save between game restarts.
• Pause menu: Pressing Escape in-game brings up the pause menu.
