- Remote Play Together is now integrated! - 29 January 2020
Version 1.31 of Carly and the Reaperman adds a function to make inviting friends to play with you through Remote Play Together even easier. Instead of inviting through the standard Steam interface, there is now buttons in the game at relevant places that allows you to invite any online friend to join you in your adventures in the Underworld.
- Steam Remote Play Together Supported! - 8 November 2019
Now that the Remote Play Together Beta is available to everyone with the new library update, you can play Carly and the Reaperman with distant friends even easier! Just start up a two player game and a friend will be able to play as Carly with their own screen (see link for detailed instructions), just like if they were playing on the same computer as you. You don´t even need to buy an extra copy, only the host needs to have a copy of the game.
- Version 1.26 released - 1 November 2019
Today we released version 1.26: Fixed issue where controls were broken in WMR Fixed issue where Carly would sometimes get stuck in doors A few minor fixes with graphics and other small issues BTW, If you are curious of why we jump from 1.22 to 1.26 it's because v 1.23-1.25 was updates that was for PSVR only, fixing issues with that platform specifically. Since launching on Playstation expect that we sometimes will publish updates on Playstation that doesn't hit PC and vice versa. This only relates to bug fixing though, when we publish new features they will always hit both platforms.
- Patch 1.22 - 23 September 2019
Today we uploaded a smaller patch that will solve some issues with selecting the default input method for the screen player. We also added experimental support for allowing players to customize what buttons are used in the game for both players. Note that this is an advanced and experimental feature. More info in this guide.
- Version 1.21 is live! - 11 September 2019
Version 1.21 of Carly and the Reaperman has finally been released. This release contains a few new things and a lot of fixes: Translation to German, French, Spanish, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, Korean and Japanese (in addition to the previously available English and Swedish) Better support for Knuckles (see below) A lot of levels that were to easy or to hard when playing single player have been fixed so that the game is more enjoyable regardless of how you play it Fixed an issue where the game would have a weird resolution after upgrading to a newer version of Windows A lot of other bug fixes and performance tweaks The new version sadly also removes one feature - Ambient Occlusion. The reason for this is that the new version of Unity (the game engine used for the game) used to build this version removed support for AO in VR. We are sad for this and we are actively working to…
- Happy Valentine Update! - 14 February 2019
To celebrate Valentines Day, we launched a new version today with a couple of things that won't revolutionize your life, but hopefully you'll love them anyway: A lot of challenges have been re-balanced to be a little easier Revamped menu when starting a new or loading an old game. It is now easier than ever to choose to play one or two players and we have also added a Delete button so you can delete games those games you started with your old SO The "Press this button to do that"-messages in the game are now a bit nicer looking We added language support, which for now doesn't mean that much since the only language we've added so far is our native tongue Swedish, but look out for more languages in the future Lots of polishing and removing of minor issues that players have experienced Also, as always on special occasions, there is a surprise in the costume box for all you love birs out th…

- Single player mode is here! - 7 September 2018
While we designed Carly and the Reaperman to be a two player game, we have always wanted to allow for people to play it alone - and now you can! Today we launched an update that adds a checkbox, both when starting a new game and continuing an old, that allows you to start the game in "Single player mode". When doing so you will control both Carly and the Reaperman at the same time. The exact controls used are outlined at the end of this post. It is worth noting that some of the puzzles in the game are specifically designed for two players communicating and those puzzles will be very easy when you play as a single player. On the other hand - some platforming challenges will be extremely challenging when you need to both jump and build at the same time. We have not done any specific balancing for single player mode - if you choose to play it that way, you are truly on your own... Controls…

- Important: How to solve crash after splashscreen - 4 July 2018
There is a known bug that we are actively working on solving, mainly affecting players on Windows Mixed Reality but also some players using TPCast, where the game crashes immediately after the splash screen. This is caused by a third party library used when synchronizing audio with mouth movements for the Reaperman. To solve: Open the folder C:\Users\ \AppData\LocalLow\Odd Raven Studios\Carly and the Reaperman and find the file settings.ini. Open it up in notepad and find the line saying audioToMouth=1 and change it to audioToMouth=0 This will turn off the audio/mouth synchronization. Another way of solving it is to make sure there is a microphone attached to the computer, which will allow audio/mouth sync to work.
- Version 1.03 is out! - 29 June 2018
After publishing two hotfix patches in the week after the release, today we published the first real update: * Added more hats and wearables for Reaperman and also modified some that we thought didn't work out * Added function to select input method, which should solve a common bug where steering wheels, dance mats, flight sticks and even sometimes mice were mistaken for gamepads. If you can't control Carly, select Options in the menu and the under controls select your input method of choice * If you quit the game you will now start at the level where you quit instead of at Bidrohi Alley * Solved a lot of smaller bugs reported during the week
