Holiday Update
December 8, 2022
MERRY GOATMAS!
Ensure no NPC has a silent night with nine free festive items.
Players can look forward to getting their hooves on:
Lucia Crown – What could go wrong?
Santa Hat – A passive ability that makes snow fall only around the player
Christmas Sweater – Because even goats need at least one ugly Christmas jumper
Elf Hat – Give goats the power to throw snowballs!
Elf Tunic – Fashionable AND warm
Elf Shoes – We stan elves, ok?
Lights Machine Gun – This is pretty neat tho
Sack & Sleigh – Launch festive paper to wrap props and NPCs into presents. Yay
Menorah Horns – Happy Hanukkah!

The OST download now gives both music and 3D files
Players can now stand on top of each other (don’t try this irl)
Removed singing Mariah Carey from the menu because of copyright issues

I’ve missed Brendan Fraser so much. Such a wholesome guy

The location of the lighthouse should now be correct when restarting the level after completion
Fixed a rare crash that happened when startling NPCs
Fixed a crash when Abominana Goo hit an invalid actor. I don’t even know what that is tbh
Removed Keanu Reeves as a playable character because we don’t want to get sued. This is why we can’t have nice things

Fixed a rare PS5 crash relating to pushing NPCs around. Time to do some pushing
Patched PS5 Online SDK to fix connection issues for some users running on a stricter NAT. “NAT” a problem anymore? *knock on wood*
