All events Players around this date Read on Steam

Hey cleaners,

A focused stability and performance pass landed today. The biggest win:

first-time mouse rotation, first NPC conversation, and first use of every

cleaning tool no longer stutter — the game now pre-warms shaders and

particles during loading so it's silky from the very first frame of play.

⚡ Performance

• Major shader/PSO warmup pass — eliminates first-use hitches

• Multi-threading fix (resolved a long-standing race condition)

• Removed dead material references that were silently slowing loads

🛠 Fixes

• Linux crash fixed

• Water extractor behaviour cleaned up

• Extraction tool positioning is now precise

• End-of-day saving + tween cleanup no longer conflict

• Layered UI rendering errors resolved

• Interactable object handling stability pass

🎨 Polish

• New splash logo effect

• Card dither effect for nicer card visuals

• Refreshed graphics settings screen

• FOV setting added

🏆 Online

• Steam Leaderboard support added

Thanks for all the feedback — keep it coming on the steam discussion board.

Happy cleaning!
