New patch in publicbeta (v91)
I've put a new patch in the publicbeta branch. This fixes a few issues from the Unity upgrade in v90, such as the crops that seem to dance all over the place in the wind. Also Unity removed the display resolution dialog in their update, so I needed to make the fullscreen option available in the graphics settings menu. Because of those issues I won't move v90 to the main branch.
The other main thing in this patch is a fix (I think) for a bug people often reported as "enemies rapid-firing the bow like a machine gun". It appears that since sometime back in the beta testing days there's been a bug that often made time run faster than it should in multiplayer, and this was most noticeable when enemies shot at you with a bow. (It didn't make the animations run faster though, just the underlying time, which is why I didn't notice).
Here's the full change list:

v91 will be in the "publicbeta" branch for a while, before pushing it to the main game. If you want to try the latest features as they come out (and help test them!) it's a good idea to start using that branch. But keep in mind:
To use publicbeta, just right-click on Survivalist: Invisible Strain in your Steam library and go to Properties, then Betas and in the drop-down select "publicbeta".

- Because it's the bleeding edge it could be less stable
- If you want to be able to play online co-op with someone you'll need to be on the same version as them
- If you go back from the "publicbeta" branch to the main branch you may not be able to load savegames created on "publicbeta".
