- Patch Title: Playtest Update 0.8
- Patch Release Date: April 16, 2024
The developer of Linear Calamity Playtest has released a new update for the game on April 16, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam.
ACHIEVEMENTS
There are 4 new achievements now:
- Defeat Umbrathirax
- HOW? (this achievement is really hard)
- Trader
- Get 1000 plasma
Some are easy, some are REALLY REALLY REALLY hard (yes, that one)
(I’m not sure if someone will ever be able to get that one)
(It’s just frustrating and dumb)
AI changes
The ghost leviathan now has a better AI that makes it a bit more predictable.
Also the higher difficulty will affect the ghost leviathan too.
Video Settings
A new video setting was added to get rid of the screen distortion entirely, as you can see on the screenshot below.
Also turning off the distortion effect improves performance by A LOT on weaker PCs
