Bug Alert: Item Logic Fails After Load (Fix on the Way!)

Hi everyone,

We wanted to give you all a quick heads-up about an issue some players have been running into. Right now, if you collect an item and then die or load the game, it can break the logic and prevent that item from reappearing.

Workaround for now: Save your game before collecting any key items. We know this isn’t ideal, and we’re really sorry for the inconvenience.

To help with this, we’re working on a temporary portable save system that will automatically save your progress after every item pickup. This means that if you die or reload, the collected item will stay collected and the game logic won’t break. It’s a stopgap while we work on a proper, long-term fix for the underlying issue. This autosave workaround will be included in the next update.

Thank you all so much for your patience and for the amazing support you’ve been giving us — it truly means a lot!
