Another small hotfix patch today. A couple of things were brought to my attention and some things I just found naturally. Aside from hotfixes, there are a few visual updates and minor improvements that will hopefully smooth out some other issues.
Aside from that, I’ve decided to reinstate the trial version of the game. Unlike the old alpha, you can’t just play it forever. Basically, you’ll get 10 days of playtime within the trial. After that you would have to purchase the full game to continue your save. On the plus side, the trial version is compatible with the full version so you wouldn’t have to start over once you transition over.
Past that, work on the larger patch is still coming along. This patch stands to be a hodgepodge of different things. Since I don’t have a firm theme for the patch I’m not 100% sure when it will actually go live. It will likely just be when I determine there is enough content to warrant it. Thanks for your patience, I feel like this is taking a long time, but I suppose at the end of the day work is getting done and that’s what matters.
