fixedPatch 0.5 is live! What's new?Network Latency shouldn't impact Sinners' movement when they perform their tasks anymore. As a Matriarch, differentiating bots from laggy sinners was sometimes too easy because their movements were not as smooth, hopefully, this should be fixed!

addedPatch 0.5 is live! What's new?If the Matriarch is nearby, Sinners can now press 'space' to signal the matriarch's location to other sinners. When concepting the game, I imagined that sinners communicating the matriarch's location to each other would be necessary to time when to go underground. While this could be achieved with chat or voice chat, this new functionality should make it more practical.

addedPatch 0.5 is live! What's new?During the round, Sinners can now see the number of tiles that have been cleared.
