Reduced and stabilized the movement speed of all humanoid and tribal enemies.
Humanoid AI enemies now behave more cautiously and naturally during combat, making close-quarters encounters feel much better.
Fixed the “drifting” issue that caused some enemies to slide unnaturally while moving.
Added more enemy spawns throughout the forest to make the world feel less empty.
Added new loot items related to the new enemy types.
New Enemies
Added 3 new types of local inhabitants:
Glutton — a hulking boar who hits hard but moves slowly.
Torturer — a complete psychopath who loves brutal fights. Extremely dangerous.
Flunky — honestly, we’re not even sure how to describe this one.
Each new enemy has a unique appearance and distinct behavioral traits.
Multiplayer
Letters and notes can now be read by all players in multiplayer, including clients.

Continued working on stabilizing distant vegetation across different times of day and weather conditions.
Items
Added new masks made not only from feathers, but also from leaves and other natural materials.

Localization & Optimization
Reworked a localization string that broke button placement in the French version.
Optimized several materials.
We also worked on a lot of things we can’t talk about just yet. This lays the groundwork for a major future update featuring a larger map and server-side logic.
