Symptoms
Game works fine but when you die in multiplayer mode, instead of spectating, you get stuck on a white screen.
Reproduction
Open up a multiplayer lobby with at least one other person, and when the other person is still alive, die. This will make it cut to the death screen but after it plays out it will get stuck on a white screen instead of cutting to spectator mode.
I was playing the 1.0 update of this game a few days ago with friends and it was working perfectly fine. Proton-GE.

Did spectating work alright for you? Whenever I play it works fine up until I die where I just can't spectate; all I see is a white screen
@AlexWickedGames Is this still an issue for you? Working on my end with experimental

Maybe they fixed it, a new experimental update came out the other day I'm pretty sure. I haven't tried it myself yet though.
Thank you for confirming
