Hey everyone!
Here comes another update with changes and fixes based on feedback. In many cases, a great game gets all the small things right, which is just one of the reasons why your feedback is so invaluable!
This one contains a bit more than the last one, and will likely be the last smaller update before the bigger changes and additions start again.
Even though I did in the last update post, I want to give another huge welcome to all the new players. The game just hit 200 reviews, and thank you all so much for that! ❤
Recently, the Discord channel also hit 500 members. If you still haven't joined, that is where I am most active and is the best place to talk about Necesse with other players and of course, me. You can join by using this link.
Of course, I also read all feedback given from inside the game, and on the Steam boards.
Another thing I wanted to mention, is that we have an official wiki at https://necessewiki.com. It has some basic information on it already, but is still missing a ton. Anyone can help add to it, so don't hold back!
Thanks so much,
Fair
