Greetings Adventurers!
We have just updated the experimental branch of the game. We’ll be testing the next update until next week before setting it available for everyone. There are several technical changes in the background that may cause unforeseen problems as we’ve just officially upgraded the game to run on Godot 4.2, and changed some rendering and data structures.
Generally speaking, the game should load faster and perform better without any visible differences, even without performance mode on. At the same time because of these structural changes the game might be a bit unstable at the moment and we need your help to let us know about crashes and other bugs.
To join, right-click the game -> properties -> Betas and change the participation to “experimental”
