Hello Ascenders!
With just a week into the playtest, we have released a patch to fix certain issues that are in the game. You can check out the list of fixes here:

We were able to catch some of these issues because of our awesome community sharing on Steam and in our Discord (perhaps as part of our ongoing community event?). We hope that you continue to find bugs/typos and let us know so that we can make the best Ascend to ZERO experience for you guys.
In this Quantum Community Report, we would like to highlight the community and all of the cool things that you have accomplished!
Leaderboard Shenanigans
When we look at the leaderboards, we were genuinely and pleasantly surprised to see so many of you have a go at the leaderboard! We love to see you guys share your leaderboard placements in the community, so here are a couple of stats for you!
The character that has been in the leaderboards the most is none other than Frost Moon Hacker, appearing 68 times!
Despite that, the highest level that has been achieved (without the aid of bugs and such) is 492,770 with Golden Gunslinger as of December 17th GMT+9!
Community Roundup
We have also been blown away by how many people have been playing the game and making content for the game. We wanted to shine a light on some of these creators for our community to enjoy!
