Schedule I developer Tyler has released the much-anticipated 0.3.4 update for all players following a brief testing period. The update, detailed in the Steam patch notes, introduces a slew of new features to the viral hit drug dealer simulator.
Launched to explosive success on Steam in early access on March 24, Schedule I's first major content update, v0.3.4, brings a functional pawn shop, a boutique store, wall decorations, and more to the game. In a post on Steam, Tyler apologized for the delay, stating, “I'm still ironing out the update/testing process.” He reassured players that larger monthly updates will commence next month, promising smoother and timely releases.
Looking ahead, Tyler is prioritizing the resolution of remaining bugs, focusing on:
- Ensuring employees work consistently and without issues.
- Preventing save game corruption and disappearance. Tyler has collaborated with Valve to enhance the save file format, making it more compatible with Steam Cloud saves and less susceptible to corruption.
- Minimizing disconnections and loading issues in multiplayer.
Additionally, Tyler aims to improve optimization and secure Schedule I's Steam Deck verification as soon as possible, using it as a performance benchmark.
