Welcome back Pilots!
We're back with another update! This time hot on the heels of several content creators providing feedback. We still have a lot of work to do before launch, but we are closer every day!
WARNING: This patch reworks the Save System
Reworking the save system was necessary for future content updates. However, this means that previous save files will be incompatible. If you are in the middle of a run, I recommend holding off on updating the game until you are finished or ready to start a new campaign.
