Whole-lotta-fixes Update

Hey everyone!

Even though we're going full throttle at the next major update, we still wanted to push out a smaller update in the meantime fixing bugs that have been lingering in the game for quite some time now.

So that's what this update is.

That being said the upcoming major update (that I've been carefully teasing) is getting closer and there will be a more detailed Steam post about it soon!

Lastly, Volcanoids is 30% off during the Steam Survival Fest right now so if you have any friends that were looking to give the game a try, now might be a good time to recruit them for your crew.
