Patch #4 is out today! Here's what's new.
It's the final patch of the year! Since we launched the game two weeks ago, we've been collecting all of your sentiments. Thanks to everyone's feedback and reports, we were able to get to the bottom of several tricky issues and figure out fixes. This patch also introduces several quality of life improvements that we think everyone benefits from.

Please note: there is no need to begin new games for these changes to take effect.
We've been blown away by the amount of community support, feedback, and activity. As the development team, we carefully review all of our player's thoughts as we plan post-launch schedules. As always, please continue to report issues and share your ideas, feedback, suggestions, and bug reports.. We hope that in time, you'll see how the community’s collective feedback guides and informs our development plans.
We have a lot of exciting things in store for 2021. We plan on continuing to support the game in the weeks and months to come. We'll see you all again in the middle of January (in the new year!) with a new patch and, later down the road, an exciting content update. We are wishing each and every one of you a happy holiday season! See you next year~
Ad Astra,
Tlön Industries
