Hello everyone,

Patch note 0.5.3 is here:

• Fixed a bug causing players to get stuck in certain situations.
  
• Removed the Electric Fog weather from appearing on deserted islands.
  
• Resolved a bug preventing scrolling on various lists such as merchant and cooking when using a controller.
  
• Addressed several issues related to interaction and inaccurate HUD display, causing confusion about interaction possibilities.
  
• The Cooking screen has been redesigned, and while it may still require some further adjustments, it is currently functioning better with controller input.
  
  

We are continuing to work on bug fixes, improving controller functionality, and adding a separate button prompt HUD set for controllers.

Achievements will be implemented and updated tomorrow.
The roadmap will be announced in the next few hours.
Thank you all for your support, and we hope you can patiently await further developments.

We are excited to offer you awesome bundles with a 15% discount!
