The latest version of the beta v4.1 is now available!
The latest content has not been polished and debugged to the same standard as our previous Phases, which allows us to concentrate on production and only worry about fine debugging at the very end of the process.
Please follow the instructions below to access and enjoy beta content, bearing in mind that you cannot have version 6.1 and Beta Build 04 installed on your computer at the same time. If you already switched from 6.1 to beta for Beta Build 01/02, your beta build will update automatically
Please also make sure you have a look at the Known Issues below. This is a beta build and nothing is set in stone at this point.
Don’t forget to give us feedback in the Penny for your Thoughts thread!

Beta Build 04.1 – Known Issues
• Netting is still a work in progress
