How Levels Work
Mission Select (v1.0+)
After you reach The Hub, you can pick missions from a lobby instead of replaying the full campaign linearly. Great for practicing co-op on hard levels like Level Fun or Level 974.
Co-op Rules
- Everyone must reach the exit alive — if one player dies, the run fails.
- Teammates can no-clip through walls in some situations; use voice to call routes.
- Proximity voice means entities hear you — whisper on hard levels.
Major Updates That Added Levels
