Dimensional Double Shift Receives Patch 1

Dimensional Double Shift Receives Patch 1

We are so happy to see the Dimensional Double Shift community growing. To continue to foster a strong community and fun experience we are introducing Patch 1, available now. In this patch we have:

  • Revised the flow of the garage so each player has more focused tasks for each car 

  • The garage shift now has a last call similar to the diner!

  • Players now have a short amount of time to rejoin after leaving a shift. If they don’t, their shift adjusts to their absence so remaining players can continue the shift

  • The Gas ‘N Grill now has more things for you to interact with

  • Rings are now shown on gloved hands (Who’d wear a ring over a glove, though?)

  • Streamer Options: Added the ability for streamers to hide room codes
