A Note from the Developer:

Although we tested the game extensively before release, due to time constraints and the nature of solo development, there may still be some bugs in the initial release of the DLC. If you find any issues, please feel free to DM me on any platform. I will address critical bugs immediately and schedule regular fixes for other issues.

Finally, we wish you a pleasant gaming experience and a happy new year!
