Lethal Company's v50 update may 'seem antagonistic to speedrunners,' but Zeekerss stresses that it's a necessary change

Lethal Company's latest update, v50, was released over the weekend, so you can jump back into your crummy little spaceship and check out all the new changes for yourself. We already knew that this update included new moons, monsters, and even a change to your running speed, but now that v50 is out, the developer, who goes by Zeekers, clarified some more changes. 

The main update is a big blow to speedrunners, as falling out of bounds will no longer teleport you to the main facility entrance. "I know this kind of change might seem antagonistic to speed-runners, etc," Zeekerss explains in an update post. "But these made it possible to bypass Lethal Company's design and mechanics without requiring any more skill or strategy; I guess it would also make speed runs of Lethal Company less accessible to people who don't want to (or can't) spam a button very fast on the regular."
