Steam Animal Fest has begun!

[p]Hello, ːsteamhappyː[/p][p]The Steam Animal Fest has officially started today! [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]As previously announced, we’re celebrating the event with a 20% discount on the main game and 10% off all DLCs.
If you’ve been considering getting the main game or any of the DLCs, now’s the perfect chance to grab them at a lower price![/p][p]Additionally, last week we released an update that automatically fixes the black screen issue which previously required players to manually adjust their game executable options.[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]
If you found the manual fix difficult or hadn’t applied it yet, the issue should now be resolved automatically.
However, if the black screen problem still persists, please don’t hesitate to let us know via Discord or in the comments.[/p][p][/p][p]Lastly, with winter just around the corner, we’re preparing another free update!
We can’t share all the details just yet, but here’s a small hint about what’s coming… ❄️[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Thank you as always for your support![/p]
