Patch Notes 1.0.5 · Risk of Rain Returns update for ... - SteamDB
The most critical aspect of Build 13005567 is what happens under the hood. In a roguelike where runs can last hours, stability is paramount. Prior to this build, players frequently reported a specific frustration: the "Lobby Desync." In a game where item stacking creates chaotic visual effects and damage numbers, having players disconnect or freeze relative to the host was a run-killer.
For the average player, these changes might just feel like "the game works better." But for the community, Build 13005567 is the seal of quality that legitimizes the remake as a stable platform for years to come.
One player, xX_Lemurian_Hunter_Xx , sums it up: "I used to alt+F4 at the 90-minute mark because the framerate became a slideshow. In Build 13005567, I looped four times at 60 FPS. I finally beat Monsoon with Commando. It feels like a different game."
