| RATSHAKER™ 29_04_25_01 – Big Red Text At 4K Fix | 2025-04-29 | Hey RATSHAKERs, Some of you, blessed with the clarity of 4K monitors or beyond, may have noticed the BIG RED INSTRUCTIONAL TEXT was... not so big. Or not readable. Or, in some cases, not there at all. This was not intentional. These commands must be seen. BIG RED TEXT FIXED AT HIGH RESOLUTIONS: At last, we have wrestled this bug into submission. The RED TEXT should now display correctly. We’re sorry it took us this long to track down the issue. Sometimes the duct is deep, the error buried. However, we would like to assure you we had our best RATgineers on the job & even they struggled! Make sure to restart Steam to apply this update.

| RATSHAKER™ 06_04_25_01 - Speaker Names Correctly Localised | 2025-04-06 | Hey RATSHAKERs, We come to you gnawed by guilt. We unintentionally silenced the true names of The RAT.
