Steam Next Fest Demo Patch 1 (12/10/2023)

Hello everyone! and a big thank you to those who are joining during Steam Next Fest and watched the live-streams earlier in the week!

I know there has been some early feedback regarding the flow of the "Introduce Yourself" quest right at the start, and I've decided to hold off on changing this until AFTER Steam Next Fest, as it will change some fundamental things that require a little bit of testing.

In the mean time - enjoy these small QoL updates and fixes!

Feel free to continue reporting any bugs via the many social media links below!

[h2]Gameplay[/h2]

• Fast Travel: For players who find themselves running around too much - there are now options to fast-travel from the map menu. You can only fast travel to regions you have discovered, and it is restricted to and from the procedural exploration regions. Using fast-travel will also progress in-game time to compensate it's use.
  
• Improved the interaction with the stairs in the first floor of The Dancing Moon.
  
• Swinging an Axe or a Pick-axe will now rotate the player towards the location of the mouse pointer.
  

[h2]Questing[/h2]

• New quests will not automatically be set to the active quest if you are currently on a quest already.
  

[h2]Audio[/h2]

• Audio slider levels have been fixed for the Bomb explosion noise, and the Lake Fishing music.
  

[h2]UI[/h2]

• New game tips have been added to the sleeping fade.
  
• The E hotkey for placing crafted items has been removed in favour of Left-clicking. To avoid miss-presses between object rotation and placing.
  
• Interaction with the map screen has been improved.
  
• The checkbox against quest tasks can no longer be clicked on.
  

Thank you so much for playing!
