The Achievement Overhaul & A Little Extra (update R1.28.7)

Since launching the community items and achievements, we’ve been closely watching your feedback. While most achievements worked fine, some… well, they had a mind of their own!

We knew we had to act fast, so our first step was a hotfix to address a major issue preventing achievements from registering properly. That quick fix helped, but as we soon found out… this old game kicks us hard!

Hunting Down Achievement Bugs—One by One!

To get a complete picture, we rolled up our sleeves and tested all 72 achievements from top to bottom. This wasn’t just about making sure they function correctly—we also wanted to evaluate their difficulty, and overall experience.

After compiling our results, we combined them with your valuable feedback to pinpoint the biggest issues. Then, one of our game designers took on the task of rewriting and refining mission scripts to fix and improve achievement logic.

Once that was done, we ran another round of testing—this time with the help of our amazing community members! The results? Single-player achievements were finally working as intended. But we weren’t stopping there.

Fully Fixed Achievements in Co-op

Next, we turned our attention to co-op mode. We knew this would be a challenge, so after making the necessary fixes, we performed two more rounds of tests with the help of our dedicated testers. And yes… we reset our achievements twice to ensure every fix worked properly. It was painful, but totally worth it!

Now, we’re happy to report that all achievements are fully functional in both single-player and cooperative modes!

A Little Extra: Bug Fixes & Fresh Tunes

While working on achievements, we also took the opportunity to squash a few extra bugs and add music to four bonus missions.

A Heartfelt Thank You!

This update wouldn’t have been possible without our passionate and dedicated community, especially our tester! Your feedback, patience, and support helped us fine-tune the experience, and we’re beyond grateful for all the help we received. This game is a labor of love, and it’s truly a team effort!
