Chronomon News

[p]Early Access .8005 [/p][p][/p][p]Thank you everyone for being patient during this EA process! Now that most of the big bugs and a ton of smaller ones have been tackled, we will be moving towards more advanced features and content. I wanted to keep you in the loop of what is coming soon.

Controller support was super janky before so I spent a good bit of effort fixing a few things in this update. Key Rebinding is in! A much requested feature. This update is but a tiny taste of menu optimization and controller fixes.

MacOS support is also officially in, welcome to Chronomon my Apple people =)

If you'd like to be a part of the feature decision process and join in on the polls, I invite you to join our discord. We stay true to the EA process and want you to be actively involved in how Chronomon shapes up.
