Lootun 0.7 Beta Release

I am pleased to announce that the Beta for the 0.7 Update has now been released! Please find below information on how to access the Beta alongside the 0.7 Changelog.


The 0.7 Beta is content complete however you may experience bugs or balance issues. I anticipate that the beta will run for around 2 weeks before 0.7 is fully released.

[h2]Save Data:[/h2]
The Beta will make use of your current Save Data and any progress you make during the Beta will be carried forward to the full release. Due to this you will be unable to play the beta and then return to the live version of the game (0.6.7) with the same save file. If you intend to play the Beta I strongly recommend that you create a backup of your save data.

Save data can be found at: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Lootun

Alternatively you can create a backup of your save data in-game by using the Export Save button and then importing your save data into a new save slot.

The Lootun Beta also introduces a number of new in-game Achievements for the new content. Once 0.7 is fully released these Achievements will be added to Steam and any you have obtained in game will be automatically granted upon loading your save data.

[h2]Beta Access:[/h2]
You can gain access to the Beta through Steam. To do so, locate Lootun in your library -> Right Click -> Properties… -> Betas -> Enter the code “LootunBetaTest” and select the 0.7 Beta option from the list.
