Train Life - Patch #16

Patch #16 - Build 22489
Well, thankfully Mike is gone and I (Joey) am back. I hope he treated you well and included plenty of jokes in his post. If not, we shall certainly ensure he's punished swiftly and harshly. The sounds of my justice shall echo through the mountains, and all will know that Mike's lack of humour has been thoroughly destroyed.

*cough* ...so moving on! We have a new patch for you following our recent content update. We've been carefully monitoring the Discord and forums for any issues, just like my mom monitored me at night to make sure I didn't wake up and play games instead of sleeping. (Never worked, I always found ways to play games)
While this first patch addresses many of the issues, we have more coming in another patch. It would also be nice to have a post-update dev blog, as is tradition; will have to find some time to write it. The best news, of course, is that with the return of Mike I'll be joining him on a livestream to talk about how things are going, answer any questions, and talk about the future of the game while trying not to say things that will get me in epic trouble. It's okay though, I've packed an emergency bag just in case I do say something terrible.

[h3]That's All....For Now[/h3]
We'll have plenty more for you in the coming weeks, both with regards to information but also with fixes and improvements. Keep your eyes peeled like a pineapple -- wait, you can peel a pineapple? I have never once heard the term 'peeling a pineapple'...
Either way, pineapples are great, but don't put them on pizza. You will be subject to police investigation, put on a no-fly list, and your Steam account will be auctioned off on the black market. You have been warned.
