Slender Multiplayer v1.5.1 (Nov 6, 2021)


Slender Multiplayer v1.5.1 is out!

Quality of Life Improvements!

New Additions:

  • Session Information Section
    Now in the Options Menu, you can find a section containing all the information about the game currently in progress in the bottom right corner. If you were to have joined a game while it was in progress, you wouldn't know how far they are into the game and what game mode they are playing / difficulty they are using.
    Here is a picture showing what the section looks like:
  • Full Mobile Support!
    Slender Multiplayer now has mobile support! Simply go to the website to play. There is no tutorial on how to use the mobile controls, but drag and tap around and it should be fairly intuitive. Both sides of the screen do different things for survivors.
    Here is a gif showing the mobile control layout:

Performance Improvements:

  • Slender Forest Performance Boost
    I've been seeing many laggy players and even sometimes players who simply cannot move due to the sheer amount of lag and fps problems.
    - You now load in 85% faster (I timed it :D).
    -The fps has also been improved since there are fewer unnecessary objects lagging the game.
    - The map still looks just about the same if not better, while also having 1/5 of the objects as before

Balance Changes:

  • Increased the speed of the player-controlled Slenderman at the beginning of the game
  • Slenderman now takes twice as much time to speed up after having a flashlight shined on him

Notable Bug Fixes:

  • Slenderman's AI will no longer get stuck outside the map, which would allow the player to freely pick up all the pages
  • Improved how Slenderman's AI reacts to getting stuck on a tree or rock, he no longer blindly teleports. Instead, he makes sure that he won't go out of bounds or hit a player causing an unfair instant kill before teleporting
  • Starting another game will no longer put your player at the same stamina when the previous game ended, potentially resulting in having 0 stamina when the match starts
  • You no longer hear heavy breathing permanently after dying on low stamina
  • Lined up the menu buttons and the title so that everything is now centered on the screen
  • Fixed a bug when joining an ongoing game you would see out of bounds for a few seconds before catching up with the game
  • Fixed a really annoying bug in the lobby that would make all the players invalid and out of place with their names missing after players who joined mid-game were converted to actual players
  • Fixed a bug where players who joined mid-game would see out of bounds when the game ends and the timer is counting down
  • The white border around your player in the lobby now updates properly after players have joined and left
  • Players who get revived will now spawn back in with 100 stamina rather than the amount they had when they died

Minor Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed a slight texture bug with the underwear skin
  • Slenderman's AI will no longer crash the game if he can never find a valid location to teleport to
  • Players who manage to get out of the boundaries will now be properly put back inside
  • Players who are carrying a body will now drop it when they die, preventing a glitched body that can never be picked up or revived, stopping the 'dead body centipede' :P
  • After kicking a player, the text that displays their ping will now disappear along with the kick button
  • When a player disconnects mid-game, they now disappear properly
  • If the player you are dragging disconnects, you now release them properly and aren't holding a phantom player that slows you down
  • If the player dragging you disconnects, then your body no longer disappears along with the player
  • A text showing that the game is loading now appears while the game is fading to black in the main menu to show that the game didn't crash xD
  • Fixed the hitboxes on the tall silo and big trees which made it easy to get stuck when walking along the bottom of them
  • Fixed a bug where you couldn't always mute the game by pressing on the volume icon
