- PATCH NOTES - v1.0.3 - 30 August 2024
PATCH NOTES - v1.0.3 With this update, I've updated the version of the game engine for the first time in a while. This ended up causing some bugs, which I was able to fix relatively easily. However, there could be more bugs that I haven't encountered - As such, I'll be leaving this version of the game on the 'experimental' branch for a while to make sure there are no game breaking issues. To access the experimental branch: -Right click on Trash Bandits in your library -Go to 'properties' -Go to 'betas' -In the 'Private betas' field, enter the code "experimental" (don't include quotes) -Press "opt into experimental branch" -Make sure "experimental - testing branch" is selected in the dropdown menu to the right of "Beta Participation" CHANGELOG -Cardboard box prop is now available in the hotel by default -Salami has been moved to level 3-2 1.0 CHALLENGE WINNER EASTER EGGS -Added new billb…

- Trash Bandits 1.0 is coming July 30th! - 3 July 2024
Garbage day is coming! Trash Bandits swings out of Steam early access on July 30th! Since early access launched, the game has gotten twice the number of environments and levels, a full story, an expanded hotel system, and more! Almost all of the 1.0 content is currently in the game, but it will continue to receive small tweaks and fixes until the 1.0 release date. While save files made in early access should still function, I would still recommend starting a new one if your save is more than ~1 month old when 1.0 launches. Additionally, I can't guarantee that workshop levels made several months ago will still function exactly as they did at their time of release. Thanks to everyone who's been along for the journey, and stay tuned!
