Mad Experiments: Escape Room News

Hey everyone,

Here are the first patch notes for v1.41. The large majority of you are having a smooth ride but on some specific occasions, few bugs appeared.

[h2]Patch notes 1.41:[/h2]
- Updated Unity Engine to 2019.3.10f1

- Bug: Fixed a rare issue that could occur if multiple clients disconnect during the end scene
- Bug stuck: Fixed collision to avoid getting stuck in the generator room
- Bug: The picture of Hildegarde will now properly appear

- UI: Fixed some UI issue on EndScreen

- Networking: Fixed errors if a client disconnects from the game then reconnects
- Networking: Improved how some puzzles are handled in multiplayer
- Networking: Optimizations on the Player


[h3]Know Issues on macOS & Linux[/h3]
The cursor could be off-centered, which makes picking up objects and interacting a pain.
For now, there is a workaround: In the visual settings, try to change the game's resolution or screen aspect (full screen seems to be the most stable).
It's a complicated issue as the bugs come from the 3D engine that I use. I tried to write specific code for this issue for both Mac and Linux but I didn't succeed to fix it yet. I will definitely keep you updated!


Thank you for your support and your patience!

Stay safe and sharp!

The making of Room 2 is going well, along with adding a few surprise for release in Early Access ;)

I've been on full throttle on Mad Experiments: Escape Room (MEER) before the quarantine but since it started 3 weeks ago, my working time has been drastically reduced, from 8-10 hours a day to 2-3h because of quarantine family time :)

I would never have the time to finish the 2nd room for the end of April so instead of delaying, I thought I could help people to connect with their friends and family by releasing the first room on Steam, on April 16th!

The 2nd room will be added for free in May/June. I'm sorry for the delay but I can't deliver the 2nd room in its current state, it's not even beta-ready.

Game development is an art that takes time because to build something great, you have to iterate a lot. You sometimes have to start things from scratch if what you had in mind just doesn’t work as expected.
As a solo dev, every iteration takes a toll on the development progress, hence the enormous amount of time required to build a game.

I thank you for the support you gave me since the beginning
Stay tuned I have few little surprises to share in the coming days and weeks ;)

The game will release with an additional 1-hour room in April 2020! Don't forget to wishlist and follow to support the game and get notified when it's released!

I intensively patched the game in December and January to make it stable and more user-friendly. The visual quality has improved along with performance, puzzles and clues have been refined.
TLDR: The game is in a very good state, now it's time to make Room 2!



I never imagined receiving such warm and passionate support about players.
During the last 90 days, thousands tried the game, and hundreds gave me feedback and reported bugs. THANK YOU!
