This stability update features many Quick Match fixes and tweaks. You can now get matched with 3 players from Free For All Quick Match. A sound is now played when a match is found and various errors are solved. If you had trouble finding people before, please try again now!
Gamepads can now automatically map to player bindings. Which makes it a lot less troublesome to just plug in and play. Note that it is set to a Xbox 360 controller and you can deactivate the auto-binding in the Game options.
In other news, the Lethal League OST is available on www.lethalleague.com/#getmusic among other work of the featured artists. If you dig the music in Lethal League, consider supporting them by buying a track (some are even free!). We are still hard at work on new content, but you can expect stability updates in-between.
