Yea that happened to me when i started playing for the first time this month, i used the yeetpatch installer for linux and saw all the versions and thought "uhhh i guess the newest?" and didnt have that good of a time lmao. 0.8 is still a lot more fun and super stable imo (besides the oven door killing me one time, but that was funny).
Now the script warns me that 0.9.0c is very unstable, so thats gud.
