Backroom Company News

We have received reports that some creatures are not visible to certain players in multiplayer mode.

According to our current findings, the bug causes creatures to appear normally to the host but intermittently invisible to some clients.
Initially, the issue was believed to be limited to a specific creature (e.g., slime), and we temporarily disabled its appearance.
However, based on additional reports, we have confirmed that this issue can be reproduced more broadly.

We recognize this as a critical issue that significantly affects gameplay,
and we are prioritizing its investigation as our top task. We will do our best to provide a fix as soon as possible.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
