General Locomotion fixes:
You can no longer walk through walls
- Walls are now a collide-able object both via locomotion but also via walking with real-life head / body
- These changes make falling out of the world impossible or very hard to do
- if you still manage to fall out of the world, the game will reset you back up
- book menu changes to make locomotion options more functional, but also more legible.
- When scrolling through the backpack, rotation will now be disabled
First Person Locomotion Changes:
- You will now rotate in one place, and can no longer rotate to traverse inside other objects via rotation
- Axis of rotation will always work correctly no matter where you stand in your VR area, or which way you're turning (even outside your VR area), this has greater reduced motion sickness for smooth rotation
- Default rotation speed has been approximately doubled - and greater option to adjust for speed
- You can no longer rotate and move simultaneously by default in smooth turn mode - this can be turned off
- You can no longer walk up onto forge
- You can no longer walk up onto wall baseboards
- Archways improved to allow very tall people to pass under
Teleport Locomotion Changes:
- You can no longer teleport through the floor at certain angles with the spline
- The teleport spline will do a much better job of keeping the doors open
- The teleport spline will do a much better job of finding spots on a staircase
- The teleport spline won't allow you to get too close to a wall
For New Players:
- The difficulty curve has been adjusted - the first 30 levels are now easier this should ease people into the game easier
- The first 4 relics have been made much easier to acquire
- Highest difficulty relics will now have a higher chance of spawning closer - making sword throws more possible and less frustrating - however rarity has been increased to compensate - easier to get relics remain unchanged
- The player will be rewarded with a small amount of arrows early on (before level 15)- to ensure they can't get stuck with no arrows and no money
- Arrows at the beginning of waves have been further reduced
- If the Auto Benchmark crashes the game (rare) when trying to determine your GPU on startup it won't attempt to determine it on new restart (keeping the max crashes to this at 1)
Graphical improvements:
- Gates added at entrance to the lower mine - (much more to come here)
- Ore on the conveyor belt will no longer float
- Ore getting dumped into the wash plant will now have correct physics always
- Ore falling into the grinder will now have correct physics always

- Cleaver graphic fixed in Cleaver blade page
- Missing polygons and Z-fighting on wooden pillar fixed
- Anything resembling a red cross has been changed to a red heart
- Z-fighting visual artifact removed in the museum
- Texture bleed though onto the back of the reward signs fixed
- Some other minor graphical improvements - walls lining up, unnecessary polygons
