This award category is described by Steam as "Labor of Love - This game has been out for a while. The team is well past the debut of their creative baby, but being the good parents they are, these devs continue to nurture and support their creation.

[h2]FIXES[/h2]

✅ Fixed an issue with the E-Caller UI where it would disappear after a specific series of actions.
✅ Fixed a bug where shooting some animals with 12 GA Buckshot ammo on localized versions of the game would cause the game to crash.
✅ Fixed a bug where sometimes the camera rotation freezed during a Trophy shot.
✅ Fixed a bug where taking a Trophy shot of an animal floating in the water would cause the game to crash.
✅ Few minor fixes in missions and competitions (6 missions and 2 competitions have been updated). Thank you for your feedback and please continue to send it, we are on a mission (excuse the pun!) to fix them all!

[h2]IMPROVEMENTS[/h2]

✅ We have increased the power of .308 rifles in response to overwhelming feedback in that direction. Now you will find two types of ammo in the Store: the .308 Handgun Edition for handguns only and the .308 Rifle Edition for the rifles. We hope you can finally enjoy the true power of .308 rifles now!

Here's a great video by Content Creator HooCairs showcasing the new .308 Rifle Edition ammo:
