This patch has been reverted due to a variety of bug reports that was missed in testing - sorry everyone! We'll bring this back once it's more stable 💀

OLD PATCH NOTES:

[h2]PEAK v1.6.a[/h2][p]
Hey scouts! Another round of fixes for you!!! Most importantly we've improved the stability of the reconnecting to games if you get disconnected. There's some other goodies in here too :)

Oh and new languages should be arriving SOON.[/p][h3]
MAJOR FIXES:[/h3]

• [p]Dramatically improved the stability of being able to reconnect to games after disconnecting.[/p]
• [p]Fixed a bug where spamming the climb button when out of stamina kills you instantly. You now can't spam frequently enough to stay in place. Blame last night's Caseoh stream for getting me to actually fix this.[/p]
• [p]Added a potential fix for the rare issue where backpacks disappear when dropped. Please reach out if you still experience this after this patch![/p]
• [p]Fixed an issue where the Max Framerate setting wouldn't work.[/p]

[h3]
MINOR FIXES:[/h3]

• [p]Fixed an issue where Invert X is displayed as Invert Y in the Settings[/p]
• [p]Fixed an issue where the Passport wouldn't properly update your cosmetics when returning to the airport after a win.[/p]
• [p]Fixed bug where switching scenes didn't apply voice volume slider settings correctly[/p]
• [p]Fixed Bing Bong Badge being referred to as Volcanology on the Accolades menu.[/p]

[h3]
FEATURES:[/h3]

• [p]You now only need a majority of players (instead of all) to hit "Next" at the end screen to continue in lobbies of 3 or more.[/p]
• [p]The end screen will no longer break hopefully in modded lobbies of greater than 4 players. Hi modders
• [p]Your character will now point when pinging a location :)[/p]

[p]Hey Scouts o7 Okay so, it's been a wild time since launch. PEAK managed to exceed our expectations of player count and hype by like... a lot. We just hit TWO MILLION COPIES SOLD in 9 days. We seriously cannot thank you enough for all the love and support we've had on this game. We're addicted to laughing at all the TikToks, posts, and Twitch streams - so please keep tagging us in them - it really hypes us up. There's an abundance of ways we would like to say thank you, but I think the best way we could do that is by sharing with you all what's next: [/p][h3]Yes, we are now looking into possible updates. [/h3][p]
WAIT HOLD UP.

Some Disclaimers:
We will not be sharing exact details yet on what we're looking to add to these updates. it's very early stages but we have been noting down as many of the suggestions that we've received from the community as we can. We won't be able to do all of them, but we're excited to see what we bring to PEAK! We're still prioritizing bug fixes and stability first so don't expect a huge content update right away.

We just know that the community is excited to see what we'll do next, and so are we! Possible updates might range from quality of life features to new content and all the funny additions that we wished to make real from the start.

[/p][h3]One thing we can confirm is that localization is coming soon! [/h3][p]
We don't know how many major updates we're planning either. Since we're 2 studios who have other projects to work on, and neither of us being live service studios - we'll continue to update you on any news as we go. The last thing we want to do is promise any features that we can't make a reality.

[/p][h3]We're cooking on Merch[/h3][p]
THATS RIGHT. We have some ideas in the works. This was another thing we didn't really expect to do, but the excitement from everyone in the community has got us looking at some pretty great things... Stay tuned!

[/p][h3]How's the bug fixing going?[/h3][p]
Pretty good! There's a lot but we're slowly getting through them. We pushed a large fix for AMD users, but we're continuing to investigate a variety of common reports. Some of these are:

- Disconnection/Reconnection issues
- Performance and Optimization
- Mic/Audio issues
- Crashes

We are still a small team, so we really appreciate all the patience with us tackling bug reports. We're reminding ourselves to take breaks, fix bugs and also appreciate the success of the project
If you still encounter issues, bugs or need to get in contact with us - you can always join our Discord or email us [email protected]

Thank you for playing PEAK. Thank you for the continued support. Thank you for your patience. Thank you for being the PEAK community.

How does one come up with, and subsequently make, Peak? Well, it sounds like you just kind of have to do it in weird ways. If you've missed it, Peak isn't just slang you've heard your teen use to denote something being really good, it's a co-op video game about climbing mountains with your friends and having a very good/ bad time while doing so. The bulk of work was also done in a single month as part of a collaborative game jam between Another Crab's Treasure developer Aggro Crab and Content Warning developer Landfall. And in an interview with PC Gamer, a couple of the devs that worked on Peak have shared a little insight into how it got made.

[p]Hello Scouts! Small bug fix today, but ideally this will help user reports of random players joining your game - sorry about that!

Through default Steam settings, players can join your game by searching your Steam username and joining if you do not have the correct privacy settings enabled. For extra protection on how to do this:

Go to "View My Profile" > Edit Profile > Privacy Settings > Change to Friends Only (or Private).

We have pushed a fix to hopefully prevent players from bypassing this but please let us know if you still encounter problems! [/p]

• [p]Lobby joining improvements Improved running/idle animations on sloped surfaces [/p]
• [p]Fixed issue causing Bookworm achievement to be unobtainable [/p]
• [p]Items that clear all statuses will no longer clear the Weight status [/p]
• [p]Cursed Skull now gives all your friends some bonus stamina, alongside its... other effects[/p]

[p][/p][p]We're continuing to bux fix larger problems too - including connection and performance issues. Thanks for your patience during this o7
