Hello everyone, v1.0 is now live! It's marked as alpha for now, but aside from bugfixes it'll be functionally the same as the full v1.0 release. This 'full' release will happen next week, and it will also take the game out of Early Access. ːsteamthisː

Further updates (aside from QoL and tweaks/fixes) are yet to be planned out, and will depend on how well this release goes. My first priority after v1.0 is released and stabilized will be the development of Anode Heart 2. Stay tuned for updates though!
