Welcome to update 1.2.0b of Fech The Ferret!
With this one we focused on bringing some improvements to the experience in the first zones of the game as well as adding some of the models you've seen us work on in recent times.
Also, the story has been rewritten.
Rather than a huge update, see this as the start of a new phase of Fech's updates, one where you'll see some design elements as a few new blood joins the team and others change their roles.
I'll explain more about this in future streams/updates. For now, I'll leave you to the patch notes!

And lastly, as many of you know, this is the first update in a VERY long time. Due to some systemic changes, there's a high chance of new bugs. The quickest way to report them is inside the discord community at playfe.ch/discord.
Thank you for your patience, more is to come!
