Hello everyone! This is the first Haste patch, fixing bugs and addressing some of the feedback we’ve gotten since the game came out.
FEEDBACK
We’re seeing your feedback and we’re listening!
Haste is too hard - we’re making some tweaks to fix that in this first patch.
The team and our testers have been playing this game for three years and have lost sight of what it would feel like to play for the first time. We’re rectifying this now based on your brilliant feedback.
We also have more tweaks coming in the future!
(If you enjoy the game being really hard, don’t worry, we have something coming for you as well.)
