We're back with more updates! The Limb shop is now open for business, stocking you up with some much needed limbs, for a price. Monster Creation has been overhauled to be more bug-proof with better visual cues. And autosaves now allow you to Continue from where you left off in the Wilds.

Thanks to everyone who've stuck around, and feel free to leave any feedback, bug reports, or suggestions in the Discussions or our Discord. We're still hard at work improving on the game, and feel free to leave a review if you think we're going in the right direction!

This update was delayed a little as we finally tracked down our memory leak, which required overhauling/updating some of the back-end, then making sure everything still worked right post-update.

We've also added in Card and Limb Tooltips, to accompany the Token Tooltips added last update. This should clear up the mechanics at work a little. The Card Tooltips are only for outside of Combat, though we'll have a hotfix that'll fix that up coming soon. We've also added Stun/Alpha Card overlays to make it more clear why certain cards are unplayable. As well as a host of other changes, some of which were hotfixed in last week, that you can check out below.

We hope you're excited for what's to come
