Hello everyone! Here's a new week with a new game update! This update should not change drastically the current gameplay, but should still prove a bit bigger than the previous one by adding a slight amount of replayability (we're still preparing for a lot more don't worry) to the game.
Disclaimer: Due to the changes made in this patch, there is a possibility that any ongoing runs may corrupt your saves and warrant a reset of saves! We're trying our best to avoid that scenario in the future, but for now since we changed the run progression there is always that risk of an "old unfinished run" breaking everything. We're sorry about that!
Without wasting much more time, let's dive into the changes!
