When a save file makes the mess bigger

Hey Bouncers!

Have you ever noticed that some of the vomit and blood decals in the game looked a little... bigger after loading your save?
And then you loaded the save again.
And they got even bigger.
And again...
Suddenly, one small mess had apparently decided it wanted to become the main attraction.
Luckily, this wasn't a new gameplay feature it’s just a bug.

Every time the game was saved, it recorded the location, rotation, and scale of the decals created by NPCs. When loading the save, the game recreated each decal with its default size and then applied the saved scale on top of it.
The problem was that the game was effectively saying:
“Here's the original size... and here's the size you already had. Let's add them together!”

The fix was simple: instead of adding the saved scale to the default scale, the game now reapplies the recorded scale directly.

So you can save, load, save again, and load again without your NPCs slowly turning one unfortunate accident into a full-scale crime or swamp scene.

Turning Shady Deals into a full game meant changing a lot of things, but that didn’t mean we threw the original idea away. Some of the most important parts stayed with us. All The Dots kept its name, the gangs came along too, and so did Octane, who went from being Uncle’s mentor in Shady Deals to becoming someone who could guide a much younger Uncle through the world of Roadhouse…Community11 Sep 2026Why the Snake? 🐍Hey Bouncers! When we were working on the special attack for Roadhouse , we wanted something that would immediately stand out from the regular combat. It had to be weird, memorable and a little ridiculous - something that would fit the atmosphere of the game without feeling like a random superpower. Do you know the film Toy Story? In it, Woody says, “There’s a snake in my shoe.’” We wanted to a…
