Hello all,
Thanks for checking out our 27th devblog! We’ve released the initial 0.11.27 build to our experimental branch on Steam. This is our first public build with vehicles implemented and we need some feedback. As of now, you'll only find the cricket car spawning until we're happy with vehicle physics and mechanics. The RV will be in before alpha launch. There’s a lot of testing and breaking to do so go at it! Below you can find our patch notes.
We’ll be updating to default once experimental is tested and stable. Please do your best to check against the list of changes below and report bugs to our tracker.
