Here's our first patch in
Early Access!! We're very grateful for all the feedback so far, which inspired this first set of targeted improvements and fixes. Next, we'll be working on a patch with balance changes and additional improvements based on what we've observed. Thank you for playing!

(Almost everything in this case...!)General Gameplay
📢 Your
Sprint is innately faster and turning is more responsive; re-scaled abilities that boost this
📢 You now can
Dash out of many attack recovery animations more reliably
📢 You now can gather from
any resource point once you have unlocked the corresponding
Gathering Tool; you now can
Prioritize any available Tool in the Training Grounds to make its resources appear as often as before, while resources for Tools you do
not Prioritize will appear far less often
Altar of Ashes
📢
The Swift Runner: now also makes your Dash immediate (note the faster speed means you are invulnerable for very slightly less time); re-scaled Sprint speed bonus since Sprint is innately faster now
Level Design & Environments
📢 It is easier to Dash across chasms in
Oceanus📢
Driftwood resources are more common in the
Rift of ThessalyMenus & UI

Well of Charon displays your current
Gold without the need to check your
Boon Info📢 The
Grasp Upgrade Tutorial in the
